New Volkswagen T-Roc receives five stars in Euro NCAP tests

Volkswagen has announced that its new second gen T-Roc has achieved the maximum rating of five stars in the Euro NCAP tests. This included protection of adult occupants, protection of children, and protection of vulnerable road users as well as pedestrian protection.

In addition, the Euro NCAP test team places great emphasis on accident prevention. In this area, too, the compact SUV - equipped with numerous standard driver assistance and emergency braking systems even in the basic version - earned good marks from the test commission.

The outstanding overall score is proof of the compact SUV's holistic safety concept, which meets the current, particularly demanding test procedure

At a glance, the second gen T-Roc offers a host of standard advanced driver assistance systems. These include oncoming vehicle braking when turning and swerve support, driver attention monitor and driver alert system, park distance control (warning signals for obstacles at the front and rear), cruise control system with adaptive cruise control (depending on trim), park assist plus (standard for the Style and R-Line trim), and rear-view camera system (standard for Life equipment line and above), among others.

With consistently new hybrid drives, a new and very high-quality interior including next-generation infotainment, cockpit and operating systems, more space in the interior and luggage compartment, and assistance systems on the level of higher vehicle classes, Volkswagen has said that the second gen T-Roc has made a major leap forward.
