Volkswagen T-Roc 2026: me hago el dormido a 100 km/h… ¿consigue detenerse?

I pretend to be asleep at 100 km/h to see what the Volkswagen T-Roc does when the driver stops responding. The Emergency Assist system starts issuing warnings, applies the brakes, activates the hazard lights, sounds the horn, and eventually brings the car to a complete stop. But this isn't a typical Volkswagen T-Roc test. I also engage the electric parking brake while driving at around 90 km/h, repeat the maneuver around a curve at 85 km/h, and then brake hard while the car is already turning. The goal is to see how well it maintains stability, how its safety systems intervene, and what feedback the driver receives. Furthermore, I reproduce one of the most perplexing problems I've encountered with its driver assistance systems: the Volkswagen T-Roc brakes abruptly in reverse because it interprets a collision risk as present, even though there's still a considerable distance to the car behind. These are the five main tests in the video: Emergency Assist with the driver unresponsive at 100 km/h. Hard braking in a curve. Electric parking brake applied on a straight road at approximately 90 km/h. Electric parking brake applied on a curve at 85 km/h. Automatic reversing braking when there is still space. I also show you an interesting feature of the power tailgate: the system allows you to command the closing and walk away so that the trunk lowers automatically when it detects that you have moved away from the vehicle. The result paints a very clear picture of the Volkswagen T-Roc. Its Emergency Assist deploys a complete sequence of warnings and interventions and manages to bring the car to a stop. The emergency braking and the electric parking brake maintain stability even when the vehicle is turning. However, the automatic reversing intervention can be too abrupt and premature. Here, I don't just list the equipment. I test what the systems actually do when a difficult situation arises. ⚠️ These maneuvers should not be replicated. Driver assistance systems operate within certain limits and should never replace the driver's attention or responsibility.
