Re: Volkswagen T Cross - A compact crossover based on the Polo. EDIT: Now unveiled Volkswagen T-Cross (2024): a light but logical update Quote:
the updated T-Cross, and from the outside, the differences are not obvious. However, the interior of the spotlights is new, with LED matrix lighting, adapting the beam continuously (and no longer by notches), being now available. Note also a light strip barring the entire front face, and the shields redesigned, including at the rear.

discover new lights, also LED, which now feature a 3D pattern in the shape of a cross. A reference to the name of the SUV, Cross, cross in French. The effect seemed rather successful, but it is inside that the evolutions are the most striking, like what we had observed with the T-Roc.

Indeed, the dashboard, largely reworked, finally benefits from a cap in pretty foamed plastic, significantly improving the perceived quality, widely criticizable on the outgoing model.

the new central screen, which detaches from the dashboard instead of integrating into it. Available in two sizes depending on the trim level (8 inches or 9.2 inches), it is pleasant to look at as well as to use. It is completed with a digital instrument cluster, or Virtual Cockpit, with revised graphics and standard on all versions

Overall, this enhanced interior is much more refined than that of the outgoing model.
Another novelty on this T-Cross, the rather advanced driving aids. Called Travel Assist3, they support lane keeping and centering, automatic braking depending on traffic (as on the old model) but also signals, turns and even roundabouts. Rare at this level of range.
Under the hood, we find the 3-cylinder 1.0 TSI, in 95 hp and 110 hp, available with the manual gearbox only with small power, the other working exclusively on the DSG7. The same goes for the 1.5 l TSI Evo which arrives in the T-Cross, strong of 150 hp
The restyled T-Cross will be offered in three trim levels, Life, Style and R-Line, all featuring air conditioning, alloy wheels, Travel Assist and Virtual Cockpit as standard. The Style adds Matrix LED lighting, Virtual Cockpit Pro, induction charger, keyless start and rearview camera. As for the R-Line, it offers a sportier presentation. Link |
