Volkswagen T-Roc Cabriolet revealed

Is there really a market for compact convertible SUVs? Volkswagen must be hoping so, because it has just unveiled a two-door drop-top version of the T-Roc.

Obviously, a key component is the powered fabric roof, which can be opened or closed at up to 18 mph (30 km/h). If everything goes wrong, then roll-over protection bars spring up from behind the rear head restraints.

Customers are going to have a choice of Style or R-Line trim grades. The engine line-up meanwhile comprises two turbocharged petrol units:
  • 1.0 litre, three cylinders – 113 bhp (85 kW / 115 PS)
  • 1.5 litre, four cylinders – 147 bhp (110 kW / 150 PS)
A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission is being offered as an alternative to the usual six-speed manual gearbox, but all-wheel drive won’t be available.

The T-Roc Cabriolet is due to appear in public for the first time at next month’s Frankfurt Motor Show. Deliveries will then begin in spring 2020.
