The new VW T-Cross is visually a real SUV: tall, wide and angular, it looks robust and stately. At 4.11 meters, it is 5.4 centimeters longer than the Polo , at the height (1.56 meters including roof rails) it towers over the small car by a full 11.2 centimeters. With a wheelbase of 2.56 meters, however, it is only one centimeter ahead of the Polo. At the rear, a reflective strip extending up to the rear lights visually reinforces the 1.76 meter width.

The T-Cross drives up on a maximum of 18-inch wheels.

The inside is T-Cross very spacious. Thanks to the upright seating position, which is ten centimeters higher than the Polo (seat height: 597 millimeters at the front and 652 millimeters at the rear), up to five passengers have a good all-round view, and the headroom is more than okay even with a height of 1.88 meters . The front and rear seats are comfortable and the rear bench can be slid 14 centimeters lengthways as standard, its backrest divided in a 60 to 40 ratiofoldable. The trunk holds 385 to 455 liters, with the backrest folded down the T-Cross can hold up to 1,281 liters of luggage. Practical: the passenger seat can be folded down as an option (from Life equipment) so that the T-Cross can also take particularly long items with you. A small additional compartment sits as a drawer under the front passenger seat (from Life), there is a holder under the driver's seat for the logbook. Very practical - it no longer takes up half the space in the glove compartment.

'Space and headroom even for 1.88 meter tall occupants.' Gregor Hebermehl is happy. The ambient light is included in the highest equipment style.
