all the unpainted plastic is supposed to make it look tougher but to me it makes it looks cheap like you didn't pay for the option to have them painted like you can on a dacia edit: the rline is painted i see so it is actually like not paying for painted bumpers, wow vw get's cheaper by the model
Many brands do this. They leave the raw plastic look for a rugged look and the all painted trim for the sporty trims. Audi does the same, Seat does the same… and they even add more plastic on the “all terrain” versions.
Yes. That's the style today. Make a regular car, jack it up, call it a crossover or SUV. Subaru did this but they used to just call them off-roaders and they were good off-road. Now it's just for style or for the somewhat higher drive position.
It looks a bit sportier. I personally like more the style of Taigo rather than T-Cross. But right now I have a Polo and I don't want to change it because I love it! 😁
@@dasautogt seems a strange and unnecessary model development, if anything they could of updated the TCross interior to look like the Taigo's, it's an improvement on the drab hard plastics in the current model
I like it, it is not revolutionary, but I like the design and I love that it has good "old" software and a steering wheel with real buttons. So win win for me.
13:22. That's what I came here for!!!! Cute little auto. Probably will not be available here in the States. Danke sehr Thomas. Besten Kritiker on RU-vid.
I think this would sell well in Canada against vehicles like the Kona, Soul, Kicks, Trailblazer, etc. VW needs something in the low 20's to slot under the Taos.
I agree. I recently traded in my well worn gti and considered the taos but it was too big for what i wanted or needed....i wanted to stay with vw but they had nothing to offer me so i went with a competitor. Vw really does need something smaller than the taos. Having lived in Europe i know vw has many good offerings,tho, sadly, vw does not see fit to sell them in the n. American market. Imo, they are losing lots of market share by abandoning the smaller end of the n. Amer. Market.
It looks a lot like the Subaru Crosstrek. Mostly from the side. I could see this being a big seller as the Crosstrek is very popular. I guess we like the hatchback look but raised up for practicality. I feel that way at least lol
Aclarations between Taigo, T-Cross, T-Roc and Tiguan; - Polo has 2 "suv" versions; / T-Cross: The suv version of the Polo / Taigo: The coupé version of the T-Cross - Golf, has 2 "suv" versions; / T-Roc (more coupé) / Tiguan (quite bigger than T-Roc) (The Touareg is even bigger than Tiguan)
Thomas with performance versions of cars could we get 100-200 times as this gives a true representation of a cars speed and would help differentiate performance 🚀👌🏼
Starts from €28K in the Netherlands. 39K with 1,5 and DSG in the Style trim. I know it’s mostly government fault because of high taxes, but not all models within VAG and other companies get such a drastic price difference when comparing Netherlands and Germany. I’m wondering where exactly it comes from.
I love it, but sadly it's not coming to Australia. It looks like VW are admitting they got it wrong with the Golf's awkward styling and removing all the buttons and knobs. Glad to see attractive and practical cars in the VW range.
Autogefühl : Ich war sehr beeindruckte nach diesem video ; unglücklicherweise in Brasilien haben wir kein Taigo ; und schlechter : ich habe mit einem Volkswagen arbeiter gesprochen am Anfang Mai , und er sagte zu mir , daß sehr warscheinlich Taigo wird niemals nach Brasilien mitgebracht , weil Taigo sehr teuer ist , für die brasiliener Leute . Wenn ich viel Geld hätte und Taigo in Brasilien verkauft würde , würde ich dieses Auto kaufen !! Dieses video war sehr toll und prima !! Glückwunsch für dich !
Great review!! Thank you very much for your work!! I like the T- cross rather than this car. I think T cross is more confortable and useful. However, I think VW should create a T- Cross all space with better boot capacity… In this way, they will defeat most of their competitors of B-suv segment.
hello my friend, i really appreciate your opinion, I'm between vw taigo and vw t cross , what is the best for you ? just your opinion (cause you know better)
Interestingly enough this was called Nivus before coming to Europe... Nivus meaning groin in Finnish. Not sure if that's one of the reasons for the rename, but it's at least good for bringing to our market.
Another utterly non-sensical vehicle for people to consume. What possible purpose can this serve vs. a hatchback? Who is buying these overpriced rolling compromises? Stop
@@BrateTebra123 So it's marginally bigger and cheaper than a Golf, which is also overpriced. I'm sure with all that "clearance" and approach angles you can do some serious front wheel drive overlanding on your way to the shops. LOL
@@mattyice4001 VW is in no way overpriced comparing to other rivals. Try to spec the new Peugeot 308 , compare the Polo and 208 pricing, go to BMW and try to configure a BMW 1 same way as the Golf. You could see that in many comparations Golf still has the best value. The problem is in overall inflation and rise in prices of the cars due to semiconductor deficit and the factories not being able pump up the requested numbers of cars to the customers
Thomas, I’m usually impressed with your testing but this time your comment about rear knee space was ridiculous.”Lack of knee room because it’s a small car” I own a Honda Jazz HEV 2020 which is at least 20mm shorter and has much more rear leg room. Seems you have a bias for VW products?
Neat enough but why do we need yet another almost identical parts bin mix car?? How many cars can VW dream up to all fight in the same sector?? It looks alright..but very confusing as to who needs this instead of all the existing versions???😬😬😬😰
It used to be Polo, Golf and Passat and that was it. And those were the days with quality in mind. Now VW is just falling apart, with crazy names bad reliability and plummeting selling figures.
