Volkswagen launched its new compact SUV, T-Roc in March 2020 in the Indian market at a price of Rs 19.99 lakhs (ex-showroom). Due to the Coronavirus outbreak, the company launched this SUV via the digital platform. Showcased at the Auto Expo 2020, the premium midsize SUV was introduced in only a petrol trim with a BS6 compliant engine. The SUV is sold by the Volkswagen India dealers as a full import.
Out of 2500 units being imported, the company allocated 1000 to T-Roc. According to couple of media reports, within 40 days, 80 percent of these 1000 units have already been booked. As for the second batch, Volkswagen is considering to homologate and import more units. According to the Indian import rule, the companies can now import 2500 vehicles via the CKD and CBU channels per year, without the need for homologation. However, every vehicle that is imported into the country will have to meet the International Automotive Standards.
