About the Volkswagen T-Cross
Launched in 2019 as Volkswagen's smallest SUV, the T-Cross is built on the MQB A0 platform shared with the Polo. The SE trim sits as the core volume seller in the UK, offering a balance of practicality and equipment including 17-inch alloy wheels and adaptive cruise control. Its standout feature is a sliding rear bench that allows owners to prioritise either class-leading legroom or a 455-litre boot capacity. The 95 PS three-cylinder engine provides efficient urban performance, though it is strictly front-wheel drive and geared towards city life rather than off-road capability.
