Volkswagen Australia is about to launch one of the safest new models on the market, with the eagerly anticipated T-Cross small SUV to enter showrooms with a five-star rating from the Australasian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP)

Australia’s love affair with SUVs is well-documented. Want proof? Last year, 45.5 per cent of new vehicles sold Down Under were SUVs, while traditional passenger cars only achieved a 29.7 per cent share

Volkswagen has teased the final production version of its new T-Cross, releasing a video that captures the baby SUV's interior and exterior design elements.
