What we do understand is the new design will be based on the next Touran, with rumours suggesting it’ll share similar style features on top of the shared platform, although less expensive materials as well as decreased innovation will assist differentiate the two brands.
As part of the changes, it’s possible a few of the original Roomster’s distinct features will make way, including the unique rear side window layout.
