67. VOLKSWAGEN T-ROC

Price From £18,000 (est) On sale Late 2017

AS we reveal in our top story on Page 8, Volkswagen will add to its SUV line-up later this year with the T-roc. The new car will sit alongside the Golf and battle the Audi Q2 and SEAT Ateca.

Indeed, the T-roc is likely to mirror much of the Q2’s mechanical make-up, with a range of petrol turbos producing everything from 114bhp to 200bhp-plus. Some will offer cylinder deactivati­on tech, but for ultimate economy, there will be a 1.6-litre diesel.

Inside, expect a mix of Polo and Golf parts, although the T-roc should get an eight-inch infotainme­nt touchscree­n and, on high-end cars, a Wifi hotspot. VW’S digital ‘Active Info Display’ instrument­s will be optional.

“We can expect the T-roc to mirror much of the new Audi Q2’s mechanical make-up”
