Information about the second-generation Volkswagen T-Roc R is beginning to trickle out, and it looks like it might be a while before we see it on our shores.

The new T-Roc R will use the same 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine as the Golf R, although it will gain, at least in Europe, a mild hybrid system. The mild hybrid setup will ensure the T-Roc R complies with the Euro 7 emissions regulations, but won't change the drivetrain's 245kW and 420Nm output.

It will be paired exclusively to a seven-speed dual-clutch automated transmission, and all-wheel drive. A titanium Akrapovic exhaust will be an optional extra.
