Volkswagen has been forced to give its T-Cross a rethink in a bid to take on its biggest threats, the funky Nissan Juke and sporty Ford Puma. With exterior tweaks and a new colour, as well as tech upgrades to go with an interior lift, the 2024 T-Cross doesn't just get a facelift - it feels like a substantially better value offering. Join Sam Sheehan as he explores whether that's enough to take down those rivals...

Using a 1.0-litre petrol engine, the T-Cross comes as standard with a six-speed manual gearbox, but our R-Line test car uses Volkswagen's optional seven-speed automatic. With 115hp and a claimed 49mpg combined, this compact SUV (aka crossover) promises pace and efficiency to suit family life, a high-mile commute, or even a weekend getaway.

With Google infotainment software and incoming ChatGPT functionality, the 2024 VW T-Cross can handle wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The digital screen ahead of the driver is customisable, while the sliding climate control dials are surprisingly tactile. The view from the driver's seat is clear thanks to your vantage point, while your view back is enhanced by a reversing camera.

Open the boot and you'll find a Ford Puma-rivalling 385 litres of storage space, easily enough to carry a large suitcase, with more room under the floor. Slide the back seats forward and you'll have 455 litres. If you want to see how much more you gain with the seats folded down, watch our video for a full demonstration.
