You will find space in both cars for six-foot adults to sit comfortably behind a tall driver. The Volkswagen T-Roc gives you a bigger boot than the MG ZS and can also tow more. On the motorway, you will find the T-Roc is extremely quiet and refined with little wind, road or engine noise, whereas the ZS has quite a lot of wind and road noise at speed.
