With the new T-Roc, another Volkswagen model has achieved the maximum rating of five stars in Euro NCAP tests. The outstanding overall score is proof of the compact SUV’s holistic safety concept, which meets the current, particularly demanding test procedure. The new T-Roc is therefore among the best vehicles in its class. Euro NCAP (the European New Car Assessment Programme) announced the latest results of its safety tests this morning.
The new T-Roc achieved high scores in tests conducted by the renowned European consumer protection institute. These included protection of adult occupants, protection of children and protection of vulnerable road users as well as pedestrian protection. In addition, the Euro NCAP test team places great emphasis on accident prevention. In this area, too, the compact SUV – which is equipped with numerous standard driver assistance and emergency braking systems even in the basic version – earned good marks from the test commission.
Back in May, the Volkswagen Tayron had already received the coveted five-star rating. Furthermore, the 2025 Euro NCAP re-assessments of Golf, ID.3 and ID.4 confirm that these Volkswagen models also continue to achieve five-star levels thanks to ongoing improvements. All awards once again demonstrate that Volkswagen lives up to its “safety4all” claim: the company deploys high-tech assistance systems not only in premium models but especially in its high-volume models, thereby further enhancing the comfort and safety of individual mobility.

Bestseller improved in all areas. The first T-Roc was launched in 2017 and is Volkswagen’s most successful SUV worldwide after the Tiguan. The newly presented second generation has been improved across the board. With consistently new hybrid drives, a new and very high-quality interior including next-generation infotainment, cockpit and operating systems, more space in the interior and luggage compartment, and assistance systems on the level of higher vehicle classes, the T-Roc has made a major leap forward. Matching this: the new, clean and charismatic design.
Euro NCAP – the benchmark for safety. Euro NCAP is an independent European organisation that has been assessing the safety level of new vehicles since 1997. It is supported by European transport ministries, automobile clubs and insurance associations and provides car buyers with comprehensive information on the safety of new models. The test procedures and requirements for standard assistance systems and passive safety are tightened at regular intervals – approximately every two years.
