Used test: Audi Q2 vs Volkswagen T-Roc verdict
Buy either of these small SUVs at three years old and you'll save good money off new, but which one should you go for? We have the answer...
Our verdict
The Volkswagen T-Roc will be the easier small SUV to live with, thanks to its roomier interior, comfier ride and higher level of equipment. However, the Audi Q2 isn't too far behind in those respects, plus it's streets ahead in terms of interior quality and infotainment. It's also more fun to drive.
If the additional pleasure of owning and running the Q2 demanded an unjustifiable amount of extra cash, it wouldn't be worth it. However, that's not the case with its reasonable £1000 premium. Add all of these things up and it's the winner.
