Volkswagen is getting serious about producing a
T-Roc R but what about a GTI variant? The car manufacturer hasn’t provided any hint of developing a T-Roc GTI
but nevertheless, X-Tomi Design has decided to render what it could look like.
As you’d expect from a GTI model, a number of visual
changes have been implemented, starting with a lowered ride height and black
and silver wheels. Elsewhere, the SUV has been designed with a bespoke front
bumper and a grille with a red accent, just like the current Golf GTI. A
two-tone red and black paint scheme makes the car looks even better.
While it is unlikely VW will create a T-Roc GTI, at
the very least the rendering shows a number of areas where Volkswagen can tweak
the design of the T-Roc to great success. The company’s research and
development boss, Frank Welsch, recently ordered a T-Roc R development car be
built. A production variant is expected to use the same 306 hp, 2.0-liter
turbocharged four of the Golf R.
