With the success of the Volkswagen Tiguan, the company knew that it needed to release more SUVs, which is where the Touareg and T-Roc came from. However, there was still a need for a more compact model, which is why the T-Cross was launched in 2019. Based on the same platform as the Polo, this compact SUV is still in its first generation, but it has been regularly updated to ensure maximum efficiency, comfort and functionality.

Used Volkswagen T-Cross FAQ's
Which is the most popular engine in the Volkswagen T-Cross?
While Volkswagen offered both petrol and diesel engines with the T-Cross, the petrol models are the most popular due to their greater availability in a range of powertrains. In fact, it can be difficult to find a used T-Cross with a diesel motor.
Which are the most popular model variants?
Volkswagen currently has four T-Cross models: Life, Match, Style and R-Line. The R-Line continues to be the most popular variant, with the option for the higher-powered engine and extra features such as 18-inch alloy wheels, exterior and interior R-Line detailing, along with a 10.25-inch digital cockpit for the driver.
What optional extras should I look out for?
You can look out for the available IQ.Drive package, which includes a semi-automated driving assistance programme, while there's also a high-tech satnav system for finding new locations. The silver roof rails can add unique style and capability to the T-Cross.
Is the Volkswagen T-Cross a good family car?
The T-Cross is a smaller SUV designed for urban travel, yet there's plenty of room in the back seat for two adults and a child in the middle. The T-Cross also has a decent boot size that's customisable by moving the back seat forward slightly.
Is there a hybrid version of the Volkswagen T-Cross?
Volkswagen hasn't yet released a hybrid T-Cross, but there could be one in the future. For now, the hybrid technology is only offered with the Tiguan and Touareg SUVs.
Is the Volkswagen T-Cross available as an automatic?
Volkswagen has made the T-Cross with both an automatic and a manual gearbox. Both are equally popular in the used car market, so there should be no difficulty finding whichever one you prefer.
Is there a four-wheel drive version available?
As a smaller SUV, Volkswagen has only equipped the T-Cross with front-wheel drive. In typical city driving situations, four-wheel drive won't be needed.
