JAKARTA - Volkswagen confirmed the next generation of the T-Roc model to be the last combustion engine (ICE) produced by the manufacturer based in Wolfsburg, Germany. This is in line with VW's commitment to produce fully electric vehicles by 2033.

The SUV will enter its second generation in 2026 and enter the ranks of the latest VW cars in charge of combustion engines, in addition to VW Tiguan, VW Passat, and VW Golf facelift.

It also dismissed reports that VW plans to produce a new electric crossover that imitates T-Roc after previously applying for the "ID Roc" trademark with German authorities.

Reporting from Autocar, Monday, April 3, a spokesman from Volkswagen said that VW has no plans for an electric version of the T-Roc model. However, it cannot deny that it will see models like this in the future. What's more, T-Roc is the best-selling model ever produced.

"We don't have any immediate plans for an electric T-Roc, but we see models like these future pads. T-Roc is currently one of our best-selling models, so we can't ignore this segment," a Volkswagen spokesperson said.

Speaking of specifications, the T-Roc 2026 will use the MQB platform that has been used for more than 40 million cars. Currently, the platform is embedded in other SUVs such as Audi Q2, Volkswagen Taigo, Volkswagen T-Cross, and Skode Kodiaq.

The T-Roc model is currently available with a choice of turbocharged 1.0 liter 3-cylinder, 1.5 liter, and 2.0 liter 4-cylinder. The car is not embedded with a hybrid powertrain, but the drivetrain mid-hybrid will be used in 2026. This is done so that the company can streamline the minimum ICE offer.
