The Volkswagen T-Cross Match sits neatly in VW’s compact SUV range, offering a slightly sportier look and more tech than entry-level trims, without the price tag of the higher-end models. This version, powered by a 1.0 TSI 115PS engine paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox, strikes a solid balance between value, practicality, and performance. The 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder TSI petrol engine produces 115PS (113 bhp) and 200 Nm of torque—a familiar and proven power unit across VW’s small car lineup. It’s surprisingly capable, pulling strongly in the mid-range and feeling at ease on both city roads and the motorway. The 6-speed manual transmission is light and precise, making it a pleasure to drive for those who enjoy full control. Acceleration from 0–62 mph takes around 10.2 seconds, which is more than adequate for day-to-day use. Ride quality is composed and refined for a car of this size, soaking up bumps well while still feeling nimble. The higher seating position gives excellent visibility, which adds confidence in urban driving.
