Volkswagen has started deliveries of 2021 T-Roc across India. The bookings of the SUV are already underway for a token amount of Rs 50,000. Priced at Rs 21.35 lakh (ex-showroom), the VW T-ROC continues to be available as Completely Built-Up Units (CBU). Thus, only a limited number of T-Roc SUVs will be sold in India.

The Volkswagen T-Roc is powered by the same 1.5-liter 4-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine as the previous lot of the SUV. This engine comes paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission (DCT) and generates 150PS/250Nm. It also gets an idle start/stop with regenerative braking and Active Cylinder Technology (ACT), which improves fuel efficiency by shutting down two cylinders (depending on your driving condition). The same engine will also power the upcoming Volkswagen Taigun and Skoda Kushaq SUVs.
The T-Roc can sprint from standstill to 100kmph in just 8.4 seconds before clocking the top speed of 205kmph.
