Where is the fuel consumption displayed on the T-Roc?

The fuel consumption of the T-Roc is displayed on the trip computer screen of the instrument panel. It can be switched by using the display toggle button. The T-Roc is a compact SUV under the Volkswagen brand, with body dimensions of 4318 mm in length, 1819 mm in width, and 1582 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2688 mm. The T-Roc is equipped with three engines: a 1.2-liter turbocharged engine, a low-power version 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, and a high-power version 1.4-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.2-liter turbocharged engine is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, while the two 1.4-liter turbocharged engines are matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The dual-clutch transmission offers fast gear shifting and high transmission efficiency, making it highly suitable for use with small-displacement turbocharged engines.
As a daily driver of the Volkswagen T-Roc, I've noticed that fuel consumption information is directly displayed on the central screen of the instrument cluster. By rotating the multifunction button on the steering wheel, usually the small scroll wheel on the right side, you can switch to the fuel consumption menu, which includes both average and instantaneous fuel consumption data. The average fuel consumption shows your overall performance since the last reset, while the instantaneous fuel consumption updates in real-time to reflect current usage—particularly useful during traffic jams in big cities, as it reminds you to adjust your driving habits to save fuel. If you're driving the high-spec version, there's also a vehicle status option on the central touchscreen. Tapping into it and selecting the fuel consumption submenu allows you to view historical charts or real-time trajectories. In practical use, I make it a habit to check these readings right after starting the car to monitor fuel efficiency, especially since fuel costs make up a significant portion of monthly expenses. Regularly familiarizing yourself with these operations can also help you better understand your car's performance.
From an automotive enthusiast's perspective, I really appreciate the convenient fuel consumption display design of the T-Roc. It's defaulted in the multifunction area of the combination instrument cluster and can be easily operated via buttons on the left side of the steering wheel - just press the 'VIEW' key and scroll through options to instantly access average fuel consumption or real-time data. The central infotainment screen also supports accessing fuel consumption information, particularly when you enter the main menu of the infotainment system and select vehicle settings to view detailed charts. This dual-display approach embodies Volkswagen's digital philosophy, helping you optimize driving style in real time. Additionally, the instantaneous fuel consumption spikes noticeably at high RPMs, reminding you to maintain economical speeds. In daily driving, I frequently use these features to adjust pedal feel, reducing unnecessary fuel waste while enhancing overall driving enjoyment.
