What is the Volkswagen TROC?
2 Answers
Volkswagen TROC is the Volkswagen T-Roc. The T-Roc is the first SUV launched by FAW-Volkswagen, positioned as a compact SUV with dimensions of 4318mm in length, 1819mm in width, and 1582mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2680mm. In terms of power, the T-Roc is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum output of 110 kW, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. For the interior, the T-Roc continues Volkswagen's family-style design, featuring a dashboard that leans towards the driver's side. It is equipped with a multifunction steering wheel, a large central touchscreen, automatic air conditioning, a panoramic sunroof, and other features.
The Volkswagen TROC is exactly the kind of compact SUV that's perfect for young people—it's a blast to drive around the city. The body is compact, but the interior space is cleverly designed. During my test drive, I found that three adults could sit comfortably in the back without feeling cramped, and the seats can even be adjusted forward and backward. The trunk can fit two large suitcases normally, and with the rear seats folded down, it can practically double as a small cargo van. The 1.5T engine delivers a particularly peppy start, and the dual-clutch gearbox shifts as smoothly as silk. I especially love its chassis tuning—it doesn’t jolt uncomfortably over speed bumps, and body roll is well-controlled during turns. Fuel efficiency is pleasantly surprising: with the AC on in city driving, it only consumes around 7.6L/100km, and a full tank can cover over 600 kilometers. The infotainment system pairs effortlessly with smartphones, and voice navigation responds quickly—though the wireless charging pad does get a bit warm. Maintenance costs are even 200 RMB cheaper than comparable Japanese models in the same class.
