Update....

The road going specs have been announced. 2.0 TSi with 230bhp and a 7 speed box!! (wonder if that will be a beefed up dry plate version or a completely new one?)

Unfortunately FWD :sad1:

the car should be able to cover the 0-100 Km/h in approximately 5.8 S and more than 245 mph top speed

Well since jost Capito is in charge of the design hopefully it will have a sinelar system to the REVO knuckle in the RS making it handle a lot more power than that, with no issues what so ever,
