Our Verdict
A strong option for those seeking a high
When inspecting this specific Grey T-Roc R, verify that the front tyres replaced following the December 2025 failure are of a high-performance grade suitable for the R model's power output. Because the failure noted uneven tyre wear ('worn on edge'), it is worth asking if a wheel alignment was performed at that time to prevent premature wear on the new set.
Given the 'S-A' (likely referring to DSG/Automatic) specification and the 4MOTION system, ensure the gearbox transitions smoothly and the all-wheel-drive system engages without hesitation. Check the service history specifically for oil change intervals, as the 2.0 TSI engine requires strict adherence to manufacturer schedules to maintain performance.
As a performance-oriented 2.0-litre petrol vehicle, running costs will be higher than a standard T-Roc. Expect higher fuel consumption due to the 4MOTION system and the R-spec tuning. Insurance groups for this model are typically higher than standard hatchbacks due to the increased power and performance capabilities.
Maintenance costs should account for premium tyres, as the high torque of the TSI engine can lead to faster tread depletion. Annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, are estimated to be higher than the average small SUV.
Focus your inspection on the front axle and tyres. The MOT history from December 2025 specifically flagged both nearside and offside front tyres as being worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edges. This can sometimes indicate alignment issues or suspension component wear.
Additionally, although the central rear seat belt was noted as non-functioning in the 2025 failure, ensure this has been fully rectified and that all seat belt pretensioners and mechanisms operate correctly. Finally, check the condition of the brake pads and discs, as the increased performance of the 'R' model puts more demand on the braking system.
This 2022 Volkswagen T-Roc R is a high-performance 1984cc petrol model with 4MOTION all-wheel drive. With 22,444 miles recorded at its most recent MOT in September 2026, the mileage is consistent with its age. While it experienced an MOT failure in December 2025 due to tyre wear and a seat belt issue, the most recent test shows no defects recorded.
No aggregate reliability data is available for this specific T-Roc R variant to provide a definitive long-term trend.
