India is the country that today supplies ours with this suv of the A0 segment. Unlike its cousin Arona, the new T-Cross had profound changes, among which the addition of a turbocharged engine stands out.
Renovated
With a long test drive to the state of Oaxaca, volkswagen prepared a launch event to live with T-Cross and learn about his behavior with the new 1-liter power supply. But before taking the wheel there was time to notice the changes in the front with the tweaks to the grill, both the main headlights and the new location for the fog lights as well as the lines on the hood. At the rear, the LEDs are intended for the skulls as well as for the strip that joins them.
well configured
Inside there are details that the consumer will appreciate such as the Digital Dashboard, the 10” color touch screen, the audio system with 6 speakers and the rear defroster, all standard for each of the three versions: Trendline, Comfortline and highline. The space allows to carry 5 passengers and has a volume of 385 liters in the trunk area, which can grow thanks to the fact that the second row can be folded. In summary, the habitability is sufficient either to undertake a roadtrip with family or friends, or for our daily transfers in the city without having to sacrifice cargo for the little space.
more excitement
Quicker accelerations, better recoveries and a very comfortable ride are some of the advantages of the turbo-aspirated 1-litre displacement 3-cylinder engine. On motorway sections, the good relationship between the engine and the 6-speed Tiptronic transmission is appreciated, as they provide confidence when preparing to pass or attack a long slope in which the torque allows a constant rhythm to be maintained. The power reaches 114 horsepower.
Security
The six airbags are the beginning of an outstanding safety section that is made up of systems such as the Multi-Collision Brake, Front Collision Assist with emergency brake (Comfortline and Highline), Isofix anchors, Traction Control, Electronic Stability Control, Electronic brake distribution system, among others.
