2016 Volkswagen T-Cross Breeze Concept

The 2016 Geneva Motor Show is shaping up to be one of Volkswagen’s most important auto shows. As the German automaker tries to recover from the worst scandal to hit the auto industry in recent years, it’s stepping up with a handful of important models that will all play a part in stirring up what it calls the “New Volkswagen.” One of these models is the T-Cross Breeze, a preview version of an entry-level crossover that will sit below the Tiguan in the company’s SUV lineup.
The concept will arrive in Geneva with a drop-top configuration á la the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet and the Range Rover Evoque Convertible. It’s a bold move to package the T-Cross like this, but make no mistake, whatever model comes out of the concept will be packaged in a more traditional matter. A drop-top could be in the cards, but it’s too early to tell if VW is prepared to take that route, interesting as it sounds.
For now, treat the T-Cross Breeze like any other concept, albeit one that could potentially have a more important role in the future. Volkswagen made it clear that the T-Cross Breeze serves as a “teaser” for its first compact SUV and more importantly, the first hint of a new design language that would usher in a new era for the company.
