The time has come: Volkswagen presents the new T-Roc! Developed completely from scratch, the second generation of the best seller boasts an expressive design and innovative drive systems. The high-quality interior features a newly designed cockpit, an infotainment screen measuring up to 33 centimetres (13 inch) and background lighting that creates a lounge-like atmosphere. In addition, the T-Roc offers more space in the interior and luggage compartment. New assist systems and technologies from higher vehicle classes complete the model. Examples include Travel Assist and the driving experience control. Pre-sales of the new T-Roc start in Germany on 28 August, with the market launch scheduled for November. Prices start at 30,845 euros for the 1.5 eTSI with 85 kW/115 PS.

Second generation with a new design. The model’s major leap forward in terms of development can be seen at first glance in its powerful, clean design. It retains the characteristic T-Roc DNA with the coupé-like rear end and makes the most of the advantages of 12 cm more overall length compared with the predecessor model. The larger proportions are what make the dynamic design possible.

The lighting design also plays a significant role in the new interpretation of the T-Roc. New LED headlights at the front are standard. IQ.LIGHT LED matrix headlights are available as an option (standard for R-Line and Style in Germany) and are connected to the white illuminated Volkswagen logo by a narrow light strip. The rear end of the T-Roc also features a continuous LED crossbar with a red illuminated Volkswagen logo (depending on equipment).

High-quality interior and best-in-class features. The interior has been significantly improved and impresses with its premium quality, soft surfaces and innovative technologies. For example, the dash panel is upholstered in a newly developed fabric, which creates a lounge-style atmosphere together with the background lighting. The new T-Roc adopts numerous features from the larger Tiguan and Tayron models, such as the latest evolutionary stage of the driving experience control, which can be used to select driving profiles and control the volume, among other things. A new feature in the T-Roc and in its class is also the optional windscreen head-up display, which projects important information such as speed or navigation pictograms directly on to the windscreen in front of the driver.

More space for up to five people. The space in the new T-Roc is suitable for long journeys and families. Even if people taller than 1.85 m are seated in the front, passengers of a similar stature can comfortably sit in the rear thanks to the extra 12 cm added to the length of the new T-Roc. In addition, an electrically adjustable 14-way ergoActive seat with massage function will be available in the Style version for the first time in the T-Roc. The boot volume increases by 30 litres to 475 litres when loaded up to the height of the rear seat backrests.

Technology transfer thanks to MQB evo. Following the current Tiguan (debut in 2024) and Tayron (debut in 2025), the new T-Roc is the third SUV from Volkswagen to be based on the latest evolutionary stage of the modular transverse matrix, the MQB evo – and thus benefits from the hardware and software developments in this modular assembly matrix. These include a new development stage of Travel Assist. It not only supports automatic lane changes, but can also react with even more foresight to speed limits or the lifting of speed limits. For the first time, the new T-Roc also has systems such as Park Assist Pro on board. This system uses the memory function to ensure trained and thus fully automatic parking over distances of up to 50 metres and enables a smartphone to be used to drive the vehicle into and out of parking spaces. The exit warning system is also available as an option and can warn occupants before the doors are opened that cars or bicycles are approaching from behind.

Mild hybrid as standard. The new T-Roc will be available exclusively with innovative hybrid turbocharged petrol engines on the European market. For the launch, there are two 48V mild hybrid drives (1.5 eTSI) with 85 kW (116 PS) and 110 kW (150 PS). They will be followed by two full hybrid drive systems that have been developed entirely from scratch. These always have front-wheel drive. As with the predecessor model, the new T-Roc will also be available later down the line with the 4MOTION all-wheel drive – in combination with the 2.0-litre TSI, which will then likewise be offered as a mild hybrid (mHEV). A T-Roc R will also be available in the future as the most powerful variant. All 1.5 and 2.0 mild hybrids feature a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox.

New range of versions. The equipment matrix for the new T-Roc will now be more clearly structured and customer-focused. In order to make configuration as simple as possible, Volkswagen has combined standard and optional individual features and packages with the four equipment versions. The packages are precisely tailored to customer preferences, resulting in a streamlined range of standard and optional equipment at attractive prices. In addition, the package range has been reduced by 50 per cent. The range consists of the basic Trend version (focus on budget and functionality), the first expansion package Life (focus on functionality and comfort) as well as the two top-of-the-line versions Style (focus on design and technology) and R-Line (focus on sportiness).

A total of six paint finishes are available for the new T-Roc: Pure White solid, Wolf Grey metallic as well as the new paint colours Canary Yellow solid, Flamed Red metallic, Celestial Blue metallic and Grenadilla Black metallic. The roof is also available in the bi-colour Black Solid colour. In addition, all versions of the T-Roc can be ordered with a towing bracket whose drawbar load (80 kg) is also designed for transporting heavy e-bikes.

A car from Europe for Europe. The first generation of the T-Roc was launched on the market in 2017 and quickly established itself. An update followed in model year 2022. Last year, about 292,000 new vehicle buyers across Europe opted for the compact all-rounder, which is produced at the Portuguese plant in Palmela near Lisbon. A total of more than two million units have been sold to date. This makes the T-Roc the world’s most successful SUV from Volkswagen after the Tiguan.

The Volkswagen brand has reached a significant milestone in its transformation to electromobility. In the presence of the Minister President of Lower Saxony Olaf Lies, the 1.5 millionth vehicle worldwide from the all-electric ID. family was today handed over to a customer at the Volkswagen plant in Emden. The anniversary vehicle is a black ID.7 Tourer Pro, which raises the bar in its class with a range of up to 606 kilometers.

“1.5 million ID. models delivered – this clearly shows that Volkswagen is a pioneer in the field of electromobility,” said Martin Sander, Board member for Sales, Marketing and After Sales. Almost exactly five years ago, in September 2020, the first electric vehicles from Volkswagen’s all-electric ID. family were delivered. Volkswagen now tops the registration statistics in the electric segment not only in Germany but also in Europe. “This confirms that our portfolio contains the vehicles our customers need. As a company, we are on the right path. Volkswagen remains a trailblazer in the ramp-up phase of electromobility,” Sander explained.

In the company of Kai Grünitz, member of the Board of Management responsible for Technical Development, and Minister President Olaf Lies, Sander handed over the key to the anniversary vehicle to a customer from Vechta in Lower Saxony. “The ID.7 embodies the strength of Lower Saxony and is proof of the state’s ability to transform,” underlined Lies, whose official car during his tenure as Lower Saxony’s Minister for Economic Affairs was an ID.7 built in Emden.

The plant in East Frisia is a prime example of Volkswagen’s transformation. In recent years, the Group has invested over one billion euros in converting it into an exclusively electric vehicle manufacturing facility. Aside from Zwickau and Gläserne Manufaktur Dresden, Emden is the only Volkswagen plant worldwide dedicated solely to electric vehicles. Further ID. models are rolling off the production lines in Hanover and Chattanooga (USA), as well as in Foshan, Changsha and Anting (all China).

The ID. family has grown steadily since its launch in 2020, with the compact model ID.3 – Volkswagen’s first vehicle developed exclusively as an electric car – being followed a year later by the SUV ID.4 (2021) and its coupé version ID.5 plus the electric bus ID. Buzz. The most recent additions to the ID. family are the ID.7 and the ID.7 Tourer, which came out in 2024. The ID.7 Tourer was the electric vehicle with the highest number of registrations in Germany in the first half of 2025. “The entire Volkswagen team can take pride in these statistics,” Minister President Lies said.

Board Member for Sales Martin Sander still believes there is a need for political action to accelerate the ramp-up of electromobility: “A clear message and specific government incentives are needed if we are to reduce skepticism among private buyers and boost demand in this group.” Currently, the vast majority of new electric vehicles are registered to commercial customers who receive other tax breaks.

Volkswagen is pressing ahead with its electric mobility campaign by launching new ID. models: the production version of the compact ID. 2all costing under 25,000 euros will be launched in 2026, to be followed one year later by the production version of the ID. EVERY1, an entry-level model costing around 20,000 euros. Sander: “The goal is clear: Volkswagen wants to make electromobility accessible to everybody – affordable, reliable and sustainable.”

At this year’s IAA MOBILITY, the Volkswagen brand is underlining its claim to offer mobility for everyone: VW is presenting four new models at the freely accessible event area in Munich city center. The open stand concept represents the brand’s approachability, invites visitors to explore and inspires the exchange of ideas. The Open Space will be open from Tuesday, September 9, through Sunday, September 14. Admission is free.

You can find an overview of the program at: https://www.volkswagen.de/de/marke-und-erlebnis/iaa2025.html.

Two years ago, Volkswagen entered into a dialog with visitors to the IAA MOBILITY with its urban world of experience. In a few weeks, it will be that time again: The company will present new vehicles and innovative technologies, and will invite visitors to a variety of events in the city center of Munich.

Martin Sander, Volkswagen Board Member for Sales, Marketing and After Sales: “With our appearance at the Open Space, we are showing what Volkswagen stands for – today and tomorrow. It stands for innovative mobility, emotional products and a clear commitment to our customers. For us, the IAA MOBILITY is more than just a trade fair – it is a stage on which we make it possible to experience Volkswagen’s vision of mobility for everyone. The Open Space illustrates how we are shaping the future – accessible, diverse and at the center of life.”

The Volkswagen stand at the Open Space will focus on the vehicles: A fully electric compact SUV will have its world premiere at Odeonsplatz. The concept vehicle will offer a glimpse of a new member of the electric ID. family from Volkswagen. Its production version will complete the Electric Urban Car Family of the Brand Group Core, i.e. the merger of the Volkswagen Group’s volume brands. “The IAA show car completes Volkswagen’s entry-level mobility for Europe – fully electric and highly efficient. The show car sets standards within its class in terms of design, quality, operation and space. It is a concrete preview of an affordable electric vehicle in the T-Cross class. The car will be on the market as early as next year,” says Kai Grünitz, Board Member for Technical Development at the Volkswagen brand.

Shortly after its world premiere, the all-new T-Roc will also be on show for the first time at the Open Space. Another highlight will be the ID.3 GTX FIRE+ICE, designed in collaboration with the performance sportswear brand BOGNER FIRE+ICE. The limited special edition can be experienced in Munich together with its predecessor, the legendary Golf II Fire and Ice from the 1990s, which now enjoys cult status among fans. Following its world premiere at the 24-hour race on the Nürburgring, the exclusive anniversary model Golf GTI EDITION 50 – the most powerful production GTI to date with 239 kW (325 PS) – will also be making a guest appearance at the IAA MOBILITY 2025.

With interactive stations and digital presentations, each vehicle world invites you to discover new things and resonate emotionally with the brand. This concept includes the GTI History Wall, a racing simulator and the option to create personal AI moments. Visitors young and old can get to know the adventure areas in a playful way during a discovery rally. The Future Materials Lab offers a glimpse into the future: Here, experts from the Volkswagen Materials Laboratory and Design will provide information on recyclable and innovative materials.

There will also be a varied, free stage program and a wide range of culinary delights – including the legendary Volkswagen Currywurst and free Melitta coffee in the open air. Concerts with artists such as Armi Warning and Pa Sheehy will take place on stage. There will also be keynote speeches on topics such as “Professional sport and mobility” and expert talks, including one with music legend Peter Maffay. You can view the detailed program schedule here: https://www.volkswagen.de/de/marke-und-erlebnis/iaa2025.html.

All contact and communication points in the Open Space are designed to be as barrier-free as possible. Easy access is ensured by a floor guidance system, tactile floor plans, stair lifts, ramps and furniture that can be driven under. All information is easily accessible thanks to Braille and easy-to-read contrast writing, self-explanatory pictograms and the support of a sign language interpreter for the stage program.

02. ID.3 GTX Performance 240 kW - combined power consumption 16.7-14.9 kWh/100 km; combined CO₂ emissions 0 g/km; CO₂ class: A

Passion, performance and panache come together in perfect harmony for a special- and limited-edition Volkswagen: the ID.3 GTX Fire & Ice. But you’ll need to be as nippy as the car itself to get your hands on one, because production is limited to just 1,990 units worldwide.

Volkswagen developed the newcomer’s eye-catching design in collaboration with BOGNER, the Munich-based sports fashion brand known for its luxury and high-tech ski wear. It pays tribute to the 1990s Golf Mk2 Fire and Ice, which has since achieved cult status among Volkswagen fans. A show car version was unveiled at the ID. Meeting in Locarno, Switzerland, last year. Now it is going into production and, in tribute to the original model’s debut year, only 1,990 units of the ID.3 GTX Fire & Ice will be built.

The striking ultra-violet metallic paint was developed especially for this unique model and is a similar hue to its legendary Golf forerunner. With a geometric F+I pattern on the C-pillar, plus numerous details in the interior, the ID.3 GTX Fire & Ice honours its predecessor and transfers the original design idea into the all-electric modern age.

Other highlights include 20-inch Locarno alloy wheels with diamond-turned surface, red roof strips in anodised paint, puddle lights in the door mirrors – representing fire on the passenger side and ice on the driver’s side – and the original Fire & Ice logo from the 1990s on the roof spoiler. Volkswagen’s latest-generation LED tail lights are tinted exclusively for this model, while GTX lettering on the tailgate and wheel trims provide exterior finishing touches.

‘Firey’ Flame red and ‘cool’ Floxal blue touches continue the hot and cold theme on the inside, while sports seats with built-in head restraints are inspired by BOGNER FIRE+ICE collections; they are quilted in the style of down jackets and feature the hint of a zip and the FIRE+ICE logo in the centre. The steering wheel, instrument panel, door trims and floor mats are also customised with coloured stitching and logos.

Performance-wise, the Fire & Ice model boasts the same credentials as its ID.3 GTX Performance counterpart. It is available with a 326 PS (240 kW) motor that generates maximum torque of 545 Nm – enough to propel the car from standstill to 62 mph in just 5.7 seconds and achieve an electronically limited top speed of 124 mph (where permitted). The GTX-specific chassis set-up, which is equipped with uprated stabilisers and sport DCC adaptive chassis control, is also tuned to the drive system’s high performance. Electricity is supplied by a 79 kWh (net) lithium-ion battery, which can be topped up at DC fast-charging stations with up to 185 kW – enough to take the battery from 10 to 80 per cent in about 26 minutes. The combined WLTP range is 367 miles.

Daniel Hiendlmeier, Managing Director and Chief Brand Officer of BOGNER, said: “The revival of the cooperation between Volkswagen and BOGNER FIRE+ICE after more than 30 years, and the realisation of a series production model, is a major milestone for us. What started as a show car has become a market-ready vehicle that will excite both fans of the iconic Golf Mk2 Fire and Ice and a new generation. It is a strong statement for the relevance of connecting fashion and mobility.”

Martin Sander, Member of the Volkswagen Board of Management responsible for Sales, Marketing and Aftersales, said: “The response to last year’s show car was overwhelming. Many Volkswagen fans expressed a strong desire to see this car enter series production, and we were only too happy to make that wish a reality. The ID.3 GTX Fire & Ice demonstrates the emotive appeal of our premium sports model, while also carrying a piece of Volkswagen history into the electric future.”

The ID.3 GTX Fire & Ice can be ordered at any Volkswagen Retailer from Thursday 7 August, priced £48,360 (on-the-road recommended retail price including VAT).
