The VW Group doesn"t tend to keep a profit-swelling idea exclusive. Take the brainwave of small-ish, quick SUVs, kickstarted with the likes of the Audi RSQ3. Within a matter of months we"ve had the not-a-Seat Cupra Ateca, Audi SQ2, the Skoda Kodiaq vRS, and now there"s this a VW hot hatch that"s very much not a Golf GTI. This sketch gives a fairly clear idea of what to expect from the newcomer: the VW T-Roc R. The T-Roc is a Golf-sized crossover than basically replaces the old Scirocco coupe, and much as we lament its crossover sameyness, it"s been a cash-cow for Volkswagen. Over 200,000 have been sold since it hit showrooms in November 2017. What"s German for ker-ching?
