Instead of two detachable halves for the roof in concept, the production-spec model gets a conventional soft top made of fabric and two doors. The company could also launch a hard top variant. Dr. Herbert Diess, Volkswagen CEO said that the T-ROC cabriolet will be a highly emotional model in the company’s product lineup.

The company will invest $100 million in the T-ROC Cabriolet and it will be developed at the VW’s Osnabruck plant in Germany. VW aims to produce up to 20,000 units of the Cabriolet per year.

The overall design of the Volkswagen T-ROC Cabriolet will be similar to the regular model. Though, it will be heavier than the conventional sibling as the chassis will be heavier for additional rigidity. Adding to it, the vehicle won’t have big boot space. It is expected to carry a higher ground clearance, which makes it a good option on rough terrains.
