Volkswagen continues their SUV expansion with yet
another vehicle that could be exclusively aimed at the Chinese market. Seen in
a set of spy shots posted from China's AutoHome, the SUV's exterior is
completely hidden away under a large cover, which suggests perhaps that the
automaker has the design all figured out.
The cabin is very much visible in these pictures,
and it gets a three-spoke multi-function steering wheel, leather and
Alcantara-wrapped seats with white stitching, gloss black trim, driving mode
selector, infotainment system, analogue instrument cluster, and electronic
parking brake.
Despite its compact size appearance, the mysterious
SUV's interior differs from that of the Volkswagen T-Roc, which is due to
arrive in China in mid-2018. The differences are visible on the dashboard,
where the central air vents are positioned below the infotainment system, and not
on each side of it, and the controls for the climate system sit under the air
vents.
Reports from China say that this vehicle comes from
the FAW-Volkswagen joint venture, and it should be unveiled in December 2018,
so we're likely going to see and learn more of it in the coming months.
