The VW T-Cross is spacious and good to drive (although the Ford Puma is more fun), but if you're looking at top-of-the-range versions, consider the more sophisticated T-Roc, which is likely to be a better option. If you do buy a T-Cross, we recommend the 1.0 TSI 95 petrol engine and mid-range Match spec.

This high-spec trim level trades a little kit for a bit more style, with different 17in alloy wheels, additional chrome exterior highlights, sports front seats, additional ambient lighting and a larger 10.25in digital instrument panel.

This is a more powerful version of the 1.0-litre petrol engine. Power increases to 114hp, which brings the 0-62mph time down to 10.0sec. Comes with a six-speed manual gearbox as standard, but you can pay extra for a seven-speed auto.
