He received the Americar 2020 award for his great capacity.

Many times, the comfort and strength of a car exceed expectations in favor of the customer (or user).

‘With 49% of the votes of journalists specialized in the Latin American automotive market, the T-Cross received the Americar Award, ‘the brand said yesterday.

In the last two editions, Volkswagen received the Best Auto with Polo (2018) and Virtus (2019) awards, in addition to Amarok, as the Best Truck (2019).

The award is considered one of the most respected in the automotive sector, precisely because of its coverage throughout Latin America.

Journalists from countries such as Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay participate in the jury.

A few months after its launch in the south of the American continent, the T-Cross quickly became a benchmark in its segment, leading sales in the conventional channel and in savings plan subscriptions within the SUV segment.

Another additional value that T-Cross has is that it was able to reach the maximum safety score, awarded in the Latin New Car Assessment Program (NCAP).

The best qualification in both ‘adult occupant protection ‘and‘ Child occupant protection’. In addition, he was awarded the Advanced Award at the Latin NCAP for ‘Pedestrian Protection ‘.

The T-Cross is manufactured in Brazil and launched for sale in Argentina in the middle of the year.

It has an interesting range of versions, although all with the same motorization: an MSi 1.6 16v gasoline impeller with 110 hp and 155 nm of torque, combinable with automatic or manual gearbox.

Will they bring cheap cars to market?

What a dilemma! At this point, Volkswagen has been forced to recognize that launching low-cost electric vehicles in the coming years will be an extremely difficult task. Proof of this: the first utility models that have been launched on the market find their price above $ 30,000.
