VW T-Roc Hybrid opens UK orders from £33,725, three trims

Orders open 12 November for Volkswagen's first full-hybrid model in the United Kingdom, the 2027 T-Roc Hybrid, marking the brand's formal entry into regular hybrid powertrains for the local market.

Volkswagen confirmed the hybrid powertrain for the T-Roc after announcing the same system for the Golf in July 2026. The company positions the T-Roc Hybrid between the conventional petrol and plug-in hybrid variants, pairing a 1.5 TSI petrol engine with an electric motor and battery to deliver improved real-world economy and lower CO2 emissions.

Powertrains and performance

All T-Roc Hybrid models offer a base combined output of 136 PS (134 hp). A higher-output option of 170 PS (168 hp) is available on Style and R-Line grades. Volkswagen quotes a limited top speed of 112 mph (180 kph). Acceleration to 62 mph (100 kph) takes 9.7 seconds with the base output and 8.5 seconds with the higher-output unit.

Equipment, trims and pricing

The T-Roc Hybrid will be offered in three specification grades: Match, Style and R-Line. Standard equipment across the range includes 18-inch alloy wheels, rear privacy glass, automatic headlights, an eight-inch digital cockpit, a 12.9-inch infotainment screen, air conditioning, adaptive cruise control and automatic emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist monitoring. Illuminated Volkswagen logos are fitted to the Style and R-Line variants.

On-the-road recommended retail price starts at £33,725 including VAT. The range-topping version is priced at £40,500 including VAT.

Volkswagen describes the T-Roc Hybrid as "especially suitable for commuters in urban areas, where it combines enhanced fuel economy with low CO2 emissions and the smooth, comfortable driving experience of an electric vehicle." The company also notes the model meets current ultra-low emission zone requirements across the UK.

The second-generation T-Roc premiered earlier in the year in the UK and has already received recognition, including Small SUV of the Year at the 2026 What Car? Awards.
