Reviewer score 58% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autocar have found:

The 1.6 TDI is the most expensive engine option, but it also provides the lowest CO2 rating in the range at 140g/km on the WLTP testing regime. Its power output is the same as that of the 1.0 TSI three-cylinder turbo petrol, but of course there’s plenty more torque, namely 184lb ft, rather than 129lb ft. This car should lug well, then, especially when laden with a family.

Pros

Punchy petrol engine
Comfortable to drive

Cons

Lacklustre handling
Pricier than rivals

The Volkswagen T-Cross is a small SUV that was first revealed as a concept at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. It is Volkswagen's contribution to the hugely popular small SUV segment and went on sale in March 2019. Rivals include the Citroen C3 Aircross, Renault Captur and Mazda CX-3, as well as the other similarly sized models within the Volkswagen Group.

Pros

Comfortable to drive
Decent fuel economy

Cons

Not the sharpest
Not the most comfortable to drive

Reviewers from carwow have found:

The VW T-Cross is an easy-to-drive and practical family car with a high seating position. There's loads of room to stretch out in the front and the neat sliding rear seats mean there's space for six-footers to get comfy in the back. The controls are all nice and light so your arms won't tire of manoeuvring through tight city streets and you get plenty of advanced driver assistance systems as standard.

Pros

Easy-to-drive
Lots of standard kit
Comfortable to drive

Cons

Poor infotainment system
Not quite as comfortable as rivals
