Compare the Jaecoo 7 vs Volkswagen T-Roc
AI generated from our expert reviews
The Jaecoo 7 has a larger boot than the Volkswagen T-Roc. Inside, both cars feature scratchier plastics lower down in their cabins. In the back, three adults can sit in relative comfort in the Jaecoo 7 thanks to the flat floor and relatively flat bench, though you will want to keep five-up trips short. By contrast, the T-Roc is a bit of a squeeze for three adults, with a centre seat that is quite hard and narrow, so it is best suited for carrying two people. Out on the motorway, the Jaecoo 7 is more disappointing to drive at higher speeds, as road noise builds up noticeably the faster you go and crashy suspension is exaggerated at a cruise. Once you are up to speed in the T-Roc, it is extremely quiet and refined with little wind, road or engine noise.
