Disguised in the body of a Tiguan, VW's mid-size SUV in the international market, this mule is believed to be chassis testing for the new T-Roc
T - Roc measures 4179mm long, and is ~200mm shorter than the current Tiguan, accounting for the shorter wheelbase seen on this test mule. VW is believed to be targeting a kerb weight of 1420kg for the production model.
Based on the flexible MQB platform, power for the production T-Roc should come from a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder common rail diesel engine with 181bhp and 38.7kgm of torque. Drive will be sent through a six-speed dual-clutch auto transmission, while four-wheel drive and selectable driving modes are also likely to be offered.
