Hybrid Powertrain Details
The upcoming New Volkswagen T-Roc will use a strong-hybrid system capable of driving on petrol power, electric power, or a combination of both. This is a first for Volkswagen, which traditionally focused on mild-hybrid setups. The new system promises improved efficiency and lower emissions, catering to markets where hybrids are gaining popularity due to slower electric vehicle adoption.
Volkswagen officials have confirmed that the hybrid option will not replace traditional engines. The new T-Roc will still be offered with petrol and diesel variants, depending on the market. The hybrid setup is expected to deliver better fuel economy than the standard TSI engines, although exact mileage figures will be revealed at launch.
New Volkswagen T-Roc Platform and Design
The second-gen T-Roc will be built on the MQB Evo platform, the same architecture used for the larger Tiguan. Leaked images have already given us a glimpse of the design. The SUV looks sportier and more aggressive than before, featuring a bold grille, slimmer LED headlights, and a coupe-like stance with sharply raked pillars. Large aero-styled alloy wheels add to its dynamic appeal.

New Volkswagen T-Roc Interior and Features
While Volkswagen hasn’t released interior details yet, expect a more premium cabin with a fully digital instrument cluster, a large touchscreen with the latest infotainment system, and advanced driver assistance features. Connectivity and comfort upgrades are likely to match those seen on the new Tiguan.
Expected Price and Launch
The global debut will take place at the Munich Motor Show in September 2025, with market launches starting soon after. In Europe, the price is expected to be slightly higher than the current model due to the addition of hybrid technology, placing it in the €30,000-€35,000 range.
The New Volkswagen T-Roc hybrid marks Volkswagen’s strategic push toward electrification while still catering to customers who want better fuel efficiency without going full electric.
