Volkswagen
has opened the order books for the T-Roc Cabriolet in Germany and other
European markets. The
new VW T-Roc Cabriolet is a rather niche model, offering an open-top motoring
experience to those -most likely few- wanting a convertible crossover. It
features a fully automatic soft top that can open in just nine seconds and
operate at speeds of up to 30 km/h.
The
range of the new VW T-Roc Cabriolet includes two trim options: Style and
R-Line. The Style line is described as the “design-oriented” model of the
range, offering plenty of equipment as standard. This includes 17-inch alloy
wheels, interior and exterior chrome detailing, Lane Assist, Front Assist, a
Composition infotainment system and more.
The
R-Line trim of the convertible T-Roc receives a sportier treatment inside and
out, along with darkened taillight clusters, a different design for the 17-inch
alloy wheels, progressive steering, VW’s “sport comfort” seats and driving
modes, among other.
In
addition, VW offers the Black Style package as an option, which adds specific
features finished in black, including the trim strip on the radiator grille,
the door mirror housing and the 18-inch alloy wheels.
Customers
will be offered two powertrains to choose from; the base 1.0-liter TSI with 113
HP and the 1.5-liter TSI with 147 HP. Both of them are
combined with front-wheel drive, with the 1.0-liter version offered with a
six-speed manual transmission in the Style trim as standard. A seven-speed automatic
is offered as an option on the more powerful 1.5-liter models.
Prices
for the new VW T-Roc Cabriolet start from 27,495 euros for the Style model and
from 32,810 euros for the R-Line variant in its home market in Germany.
