Much Cheaper Than A Golf R! (Volkswagen T-Roc R 2023 Review)

We test the new Volkswagen T-Roc R, which feels like it evokes the spirit and value of the old Mk 7 Golf R hot hatch, but in an SUV body. Time codes: 0:00 - Intro 1:07 - Design 2:10 - Boot Space 3:18 - Interior 6:55 - Back Seats 8:14 - Running Costs 9:14 - Driving 14:44 - Verdict The Volkswagen T-Roc R is the sportiest version of the 2023 T-Roc small SUV, but it is also the cheapest Volkswagen R product at $59,300 in Australia. That’s a lot less than the Mk 8 Golf R, and actually, the T-Roc R feels more like a Mk 7.5 Golf R, which is great! It uses a 221kW (296 hp) 2.0T petrol four-cylinder EA888 engine and AWD. Rivals to the Volkswagen T-Roc R include the Hyundai Kona N, Cupra Ateca, BMW X2 M35i, and other sporty, small SUVs.
