What is the torque of the T-Roc?
2 Answers
The maximum torque of the T-Roc is 175 N·m. T-Roc engine specifications: The T-Roc is equipped with two engine options: a 1.2T and a 1.4T. The 1.2T version has a maximum power output of 85 kW and a maximum torque of 175 N·m, while the 1.4T version delivers a maximum power output of 96 kW and a maximum torque of 225 N·m. Vehicle overview: The T-Roc is FAW-Volkswagen's first SUV. The dimensions of this vehicle are 4318 mm in length, 1819 mm in width, and 1582 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2688 mm. The front fascia of the T-Roc adopts a family-style design, featuring a horizontally stretched front grille decorated with chrome trim strips, and the headlights on both sides resemble a pair of eyes. Overall, it has high recognition and strong coherence.
When I test-drove the T-Roc 1.5T version last year, I paid special attention to its power specifications. Its maximum torque reaches 250 N·m, which is considered upper-middle level among compact SUVs in the same class, about 40 N·m higher than most Japanese competitors. The 1.4T version also delivers 250 N·m of torque, but the new 1.5T engine responds faster at low RPMs. Torque directly affects the feeling of acceleration from a standstill—with 250 N·m paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, the car feels particularly nimble when starting from a traffic light in the city, and it doesn’t struggle when climbing hills. If there’s a minor drawback, it’s that the turbo kicks in with a slight delay, reaching peak torque at around 1,700 RPM, but it’s perfectly adequate for daily commuting. For those who prioritize performance, I’d recommend opting for the high-power version, as the base 1.2T’s 200 N·m torque might feel slightly strained when fully loaded.
