I bought this car since one month. It’s simply a pleasure to drive it on the city or motorway! It feels very stable on the road! I’m really happy with my decision! Great review Thomas, thank you !

[@autogefuehl]

Awesome enjoy 😊

[@christobalev3246]

Leona Dior we can forgive you don’t understand cars, you’re a woman 😂😂

[@MultiDoopie]

Imagine how it would feel if you bought a good car. The T-roc is a rubish car. Cheap plastic, bad handling. 2 more days and then i have my own car after 3 months. T-roc never again and VW unworthy

[@DieFliegeinderSuppe]

@@MultiDoopie Ive seen close to a dozen driving reviews on this car, none of those mentioned anything about bad handling. Elaborate please.

[@MultiDoopie]

@@DieFliegeinderSuppe Go to your nearest VW dealer. Ask for the most basic version of the T roc. Testdrive it. Then tell us what you think of the: ' i'm all over the place' handling. It is real shitty. Got my Focus St-line today so after 3 months of Troc hell it's finally over. Thank god!

I'm a simple man - I see Thomas reviewing a car, I click Like ... :)

Also, you copy other's comments!!

[@tojpurre4763]

Really great review Thomas! Quality as usual

[@CityQueenChili]

I’m not really into cars but I watch these videos because his voice is quite soothing & he’s easy on the eyes.

Why I haven't seen this channel all these years? Absolutely wonderful, honest review, no flash and clickbait tricks. Subscribed. Wonderful work guys. Also love that German accent of this guy.

Great review. You're probably one of the best out there!

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks, please like and share =)

[@hman1]

Perfectly dressed and perfect weather to complement the T-Roc! Classic and subdued, Autogefuhl 👌

[@autogefuehl]

thanks so much! :)

[@vanguard1424]

I'm maybe late to the party, but I just bought this car as my first car. A test drove it and it's still very enjoyable to drive. Really feels like an extension of yourself.

[@richa237]

Another fantastic review by Thomas! Keep up the good work!

[@autogefuehl]

appreciated!

[@zigagubensek5147]

Great in-depth review Thomas! Thanks!

[@SEN6608]

Decent video, like the drivers POV camera view, nice review 👍

[@jesper9466]

Thank you Thomas for a top-notch review, as always. I think you have conviced me in to buying this one.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks Jesper! Enjoy :)

[@carlosmoritzen2536]

Very nice review. Thanks.

[@pennehoesje]

The plastic on the inside of the front daylight LEDs seems very tacky. Otherwise not a bad design! I like where VW is taking its looks.

[@dongbradley7162]

Our Thomas is back!

[@alexandrgr]

Great review!!

[@autogefuehl]

Highly appreciated!! Please recommend 😎

[@cac7865]

Good review.

[@NicoGrech]

This is the first time I've seen one of your videos. I truly enjoyed it, thank you. Would have loved to see you also review the Beats Audio system since your car had it.

Good review as normal & hope you feel better soon Thomasz

I drove the awd/2.0L version here in Finland and it was surprisingly fun to drive. Great review once again!

[@autogefuehl]

cheers!

[@ranjansahu11]

Eagerly awaiting the extended Autogefuhl review of the following two very important cars: 1. Jaguar I Pace 2. Volvo S60.

[@bjjace1]

Great Review

[@autogefuehl]

thanks !!

[@GowthamV07]

VW now has the best Active infotainment system in the market for the price segment. Hope this comes to india with the Troc

[@talitubi101]

have this car for 3 months now in orange-black, am totally in love with it, its sooo good! !!(except that it likes a drink) bought it also because of your hands on videos a year back, thanks a lot!!

[@autogefuehl]

cool :)

[@gav25x]

Is there a lot of road noise? How comfortable is it?

[@AlanDJ]

Great review "la Thomas"style! Of course,nice car!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks keep following !

[@TimLeahy2]

The only thing that would stop me from buying one is the fuel economy. Currently getting 60mpg from a Seat Leon 1.6D. So it's gonna be hard to beat that economy. Great review!

[@gk51171]

you gave me the impression that you had this car for years, you looked very calm and content inside the car

[@alfonsodriver1324]

It is always a pleasure to watch the driving parts with Thomas, as he is a good driver. And a sign of a good driver, is that they make it look easy. Thomas makes it look easy in all the modern cars he drives. Cheers.

[@autogefuehl]

I really love to hear that. That's what we really try to achieve with our experience and knowledge

[@autogefuehl]

highly appreciated

[@mikeymarmalade]

Giorgos Kotsakis he didn’t in the back.

[@gk51171]

correct, i was surprised he didnt even fit!

[@ionkonstantinglisic7829]

Hey Thomas,great video. One queation is there enough room for legs on the back seat?Thanks

[@yasmin878]

I was going to buy this car but then opted for Tiguan, I think in terms of space and quality Tiguan was a good choice. Thank you for the review Thomas and team

[@autogefuehl]

Cheers and enjoy the tiguan :)

[@ianmiller6698]

That is a nice looking car...great review..

[@autogefuehl]

👌

[@kraenk12]

Such a good looking car. It looks impressive on the road.

[@whatevernevermind5960]

Can you do a separate video on Volkswagens infotainment system in the future?

[@cristinasousa1588]

great review! thanks.... i fell in love with this car the first time i saw it😍! I have been driving a golf for 17 years now! i want a new car not far from the golf and the t-roc seems a good option. Vw cars are a bit pricey. Is it because of durability? what do you think? thanks

[@kennymcevoy5558]

Mr cool nice review nice car

[@neufarian3300]

Nice rhymes , Thomas 😉

[@tipazas]

With seat adjusting knob it's easier to fine-tune the position on the go, for example then you get in with thicker clothes on colder days or otherwise.

[@ScenesThroughTravels]

You need Holiday soon Thomas , Get well soon !! Great review as always . I do like these , Would this be on par to Audi Q2 ?

[@autogefuehl]

thanks m8 ! Kind of: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZ7RYqhpYqiSm7M

[@jimis1992]

Great looking car, and quite fun with this engine. Haven't driven the 1.5 l one.

[@mikelogan955]

I have the T-roc sel 194bhp tsi. What a first class vehicle. I must say there are a few, I mean a few minor irritations, for example, the front cup holder. Cup retainers plus sliding cover would perfect the cockpit in my opinion. Otherwise, a perfect car, a perfect drive. One which I would highly recommend.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks for the feedback !

[@vitopetris6861]

I don't like turning knob for seat back aswell.I have lever for back of seat just like inclination and hight, on Opel Zafira Tourer.

[@decapitofamily3410]

This would be a great option in The States - wish this model were here

[@desroin]

Great review! Now that I see this it reminds me I'd love to see a review of the new C4 Cactus which I think is sort of in the same class

[@autogefuehl]

thanks !

[@desroin]

I also agree with people throwing out trash out of their window are trash... I had one dude throwing out a cigarette pack on the Autobahn at 180kph slamming against my windshield... I'll never understand how ignorant some people can be

[@janism24]

11:32 Thomas in the rear seat.

[@autogefuehl]

😂

[@nelyrions1838]

I drove this one a while ago.. it was striking how much hard plastics there were.. While sound isolation was decent (except tire noise, but i was on 19 inch wheels), the only thing i found disturbing was that the wind noise was excessive.

[@piotrdarda3416]

Another great review from Thomas It just shame that this is another review of top speck version of vw t-roc. What about something for real volks people with reasonable price like 1.5tsi 150ps DSG version with front wheel drive and standard torsion beam suspension? Would this still be comfortable quiet car? I would love to see review like this . All the best Peter

[@autogefuehl]

agree, hard to get low-spec cars. We always do that if possible

[@AndroBoy17]

hey Thomas, great review as usual! pls could you advise me the exact model of the watch u are wearing on the review. many thks

[@AndroBoy17]

the fuel consumption is too high! 8l/100km with slow and smooth drive , too high. My Rav4 with these driving conditions shows abt 6.5-7l / 100km. T-roc is a Great car anyway

[@autogefuehl]

check video description =)

[@chomihai]

I have one, it’s a great car!

[@victooreric2455]

voice is ok ... bit of syrop and done thomas :) great vid as always :)

[@autogefuehl]

Cheers!

Just like how compact SUVs are the trendy new thing in automobiles, jacket over drawstring hoodie needs to be the new fashion trend of Fall 2018.

[@Dani1996ITA]

I saw that this one is equipped with Beats Audio system, does anybody know how it sounds? Is it worth it?

[@R.FOX-1963]

Wow Thank you for all xD

[@lucbegin7334]

I wish that North America had this car.

[@stefanolancianese]

Is Thise Pure White ora White Silver?

[@mancuinist]

Hi Thomas. Any ideea why we still find in a lot of cars in 2018 key knob for starting or turning the engine off instead of having a start/stop button.

[@autogefuehl]

Yeah... cost cuts maybe

[@MichaelFrancis222]

You are funny, dude thanks for the video.

[@autogefuehl]

=)

[@raphaelruet4133]

Again a very nice review ! You mentioned a weird comportement when using the ACC at low speeds, could you please provide the link to the referred review talking about this issue ?

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks! Timecode please u are referring to ?

[@raphaelruet4133]

Just around 19mn30s :-)

[@autogefuehl]

ah ok, I remember. Well that was with this vehicle, must have smth. to do with clutch/automatic rpm setting.

[@raphaelruet4133]

Okay, thanks again !@@autogefuehl

[@richardfittonperkins1926]

Thomas, could you please do a review of the T-Roc with the 1.0TSi 115, please? Either S, SE, or Style, a reasonably priced spec. Thanks! :)

[@autogefuehl]

We got another review here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmWqcoSDjNSGbNE And style levels: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mX2boHt3l72Midk

[@christill]

Thomas, is it possible to get the upright seating position that you’re a fan of, in a more regular car style? Then you could have better aerodynamics and better handling.

[@autogefuehl]

hmm well this is a try to do that I guess. But in general the real high seating position I just find in SUVs

[@ChrisLappas]

Is it snowing?

[@gregorygant4242]

Nippy little Crossover,Good looking outside ,inside is ok but looks too much like a Golf with some hard plastic areas instead.A good second car for city driving IMHO, Afoordable too.Good video Thomas,keep it up!

[@autogefuehl]

appreciated

[@kurtschuster1963]

Hallo Thomas, wie immer ein tolles Video über meine Cabrio- und Motorrad Hausstrecke rund um Kettwig (und für mich zugleich eine gute Englischnachhilfe). Ich bin sehr gespannt auf das für 2020 angekündigte T-Roc Cabrio. Wir fahren heute (als einzige Familienauto) einen EOS mit einem für Cabrioverhältnisse sehr großen Kofferraum und sind daher insbesondere auf die Abmessungen des T-Roc Cabrio Gepäckabteils gespannt. Daher würden wir uns sehr über deinen Test dazu freuen (und ggf. vorher über das T-Cross Cabrio). Grüße aus dem Ruhrgebiet von Kurt

[@autogefuehl]

Gerne, machen wir sobald erhältlich:)

[@Martin_Level47]

Great review again from Thomas 😊 it's a nice little car. Not a fan of the gearbox or the price tag tho 😳😊 Looking forward to a review of the new focus and Ceed. I think one of those will be my next familycar 😊

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! New Focus review will come next week!

[@autogefuehl]

ceed: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXncfYuiia1jmdE

[@Martin_Level47]

Great video for the presentation of the new Ceed. I've already seen that, so looking forward to at driving review. They promise treat consumption numbers and I hope for a good driving experience 😊

[@MichaelsV2]

this color is pure white or white silver?

[@jankaskyevitchjellbet7293]

I don't care for hard or soft plastics. They have to be silent not crackling sounding! Of course it's overpriced it's wag! Great review as always!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks keep following !

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Great review Thomas. Hard plastic on the top dash. Why ? The Polo has a soft touch dash top. Door cards all hard plastic again, like a van. Such a shame as its a great looking SUV and seems to drive well, they had a winner here if they did not penny pinch. However here in the UK you can buy a Volvo XC-40 for the same money as this 2.0 T Roc.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks for following !

[@ssaabb1490]

Thomas the tailgate doesn't have the right sensitivity.It's so difficult to fixed that the VW, I wonder?

[@autogefuehl]

yeah

[@carroll7110]

I for one Lament the Lost of the Golf 2 door GTI... in the U.S. Market... But this is nice for a lot...

[@khaldounrajeh1725]

Which one is better based on your driving experience, the troc or the suparu xv?, looking forward to hear from you (need an advice) Regards

[@autogefuehl]

Driving wise the troc is sportier/more fun

[@khaldounrajeh1725]

@@autogefuehl thank you highly appreciated

[@deurkl]

Why is it that material quality in the interiors seems to go down at VW these years? Maybe they want to improve margins?

When in india

[@tobias7104]

Right now - your choise should be Chamomile tea :-)

[@wolvoman1]

Just great humour, just pump it up ya all lol On a serious note, its odd that they have adaptive cup holders in the rear but not in the front

[@ivo4357]

normally an automatic closing door for the boot is a useless option for me, but this afternoon I went to the dealer and this T-Roc's door is very hard to close manually, you have to use a lot of force to get it moving, and then you have to push on the outside of the door to close it. I don't see elderly people managing this without difficulty

[@mariahtr]

We're thinking about the 1.5 petrol. Is the petrol comsumption good?

[@autogefuehl]

1.5 is good. Consumption is not super super low, but it is reasonable

[@tofkri]

DSG Means Direktschaltgetriebe, or in Englisch Engels: Direct-Shift Gearbox

[@thoe4503]

Thank you for the nice review. May i ask how tall you are? :D I'm also a tall person and i'm considering T-Roc..

Stated in every interior part :) thanks!

[@AhmadThabet-qw1kc]

Does VW has a ManualTransmission Engine in the 2 Litre Model, please advise. Also, what about the Audio System Facilities and Air Condition Vents for the Back Seats, please clarify. Is the DSG Automatic a Six Gear or a Seven Gear Transmission with the 2 Litre Model and does it have a sliding roof option or not. Overall, the 190 HP 2 Litre version is a very Good Family Car for Four (4) family members, including the Driver. Many Thanks & best Regards, please clarify.

[@autogefuehl]

depends on the market, u gotta check your configurator. The 2 l TFSI is always good

[@PopescuVladPaul]

Hello Thomas. Is there any reason why you guys haven't done a review about Dacia Duster? I mean it's one of the best selling SUVs in its class in Europe, I think a lot of people wanna see it on your channel. Cheers :)

[@autogefuehl]

We did ask for but They didnt supply yet

[@buccimail]

Hey Thomas! Nice review as always. Tell me what is your pick if you have in the hat, T-Roc, Honda HR-V, Subaru XV and Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross? I know all is good and nice cars, but what is your opinion! Thanks for the advice! :)

[@autogefuehl]

Thx! This. Eclipse cross review will also come soon!

[@buccimail]

Danke Thomas!

[@GMWMW]

Hello Thomas, do you know if the 7 speed dsg that comes with the 1.5 tsi is based on a wet or dry clutches?

[@autogefuehl]

afaik they are switching them all to the wet clutches now. I ll check.

[@autogefuehl]

1.5 dry, 2.0 both TSI and DSG wet

[@GMWMW]

[@exionem]

Would compete against the Hyundai Kona in the US.

[@jaybou007]

I'd hang out with Thomas during my next trip to Europe just to try out VWs and have a live review. :) Probably with VWs we don't have in North America...such as the T-Roc. :(

[@dragospahontu]

@@dragospahontu yes if realiabilité is the most important for you ! german cars try to give a general good car for confort, speed, sensations, fun to drive, feelings, then reliability. toyota is only reliable ! there are corean cars also, like kia hyundai, for reliabilité....

[@PD-cn7xd]

Thanks for review Thomas I just have small problem with the comparison this vw-roc to Vw golf. As you said this is Vw t roc 2.0 tsi dsg 190ps 4motion.I just think it will be a bit difficult to find golf with same speck. And the price of this particular car wow!!!! It will be great if somebody can compare for example Vw t roc 1.5 tsi 150ps evo dsg with Vw golf 1.5 tsi 150ps evo dsg. I think this will be proper comparison of comfort,driving,and noise insulation. Why I mentioned those two versions of the cars ? For only one reason. There are differences between this two cars even with the same speck ,especially if you talk about suspension. Vw golf have multilink suspension ,compared to Vw t roc torsion beam for example. Most petrolheads know how is this translated to ride comfort. Please is there anybody who can do proper comparasion? I am sure that heavy 4motion t roc with 2.0 tsi engine is a great car but is it affordable for people who will like to change from Vw golf? Surely most will go for for 1.5tsi evo dsg 150ps. So I have only one question. Why nobody want to do proper review of the version I mentioned above??? I will love it. Especially full length in HD.Com on Autogefühl !!!

[@autogefuehl]

Good points. Indeed they come close in price, both great cars. More depends on if u want suv or not

[@royaltylw5347]

Hi Thomas, T-Roc vs. Ateca ... welcher der beiden wäre DEIN Favorit ??? Beste Grüße

Hi! Beide wirklich eine Überlegung wert. Hast du unsere Ateca Reviews zum Vergleich gesehen? kzbin.info?search_query=autogefuehl+seat+ateca Ferner hab ich hier im Video auch ein bissl was zum Vergleich gesagt.
