New Scirocco
« on: February 17, 2014, 07:55:18 am »














Ten key facts on the world premiere of the latest Scirocco:

1. New engine range (123hp to 276hp) with more power but up to 19 per cent more economical. EU 6 as standard.
2. With 2.0 TSI (177hp and 217 hp) engine, the new Scirocco consumes just 6.0 l/100 km (39 mpg).
3. With entry-level 1.4 TSI (92 kW) Scirocco consumes only 5.4 l/100 km.
4. With the most economical diesel engine, the new Scirocco 2.0 TDI (110 kW) only consumes 4.1 l/100 km (43.5 mpg).
5. New Scirocco generation (123hp to 217hp) and Scirocco R (276hp) debut at the same time.
6. Newly styled front and rear sections. Including new H7 und bi-xenon headlights, LED rear lights and swivelling VW logo as the boot lid handle.
7. Modified interior with auxiliary instruments paying tribute to the original Scirocco.
8. New technical features include Dynaudio Excite sound system and park steering assistant.
9. New colors, materials and alloy wheel designs (17, 18 and 19-inch).
10. Market launch in Europe starting in August 2014.

Different rear lights and bumper, and interior?? What's the point  :signLOL:


I'm guessing its a different chassis like the current 7th gen

Yeah like that. But these pics always look good. Make them look more aggressive, il see what's it like in person first.

Just added some info from the link and pics of the non R version.

Always like the Rocco and like what they've done with it especially the gauges and the swivel badge boot opener

I hope those seats are optional extras in the new Golf GTI/R/R Evo cause the standard ones are awful IMO

Anyone shed any light?

Is this just a facelift then? Not a new MQB platform?

Why aren't they putting the new range of media in them like the facelift Polo?

Liking the gauges on the dash and the R buckets, otherwise doesn't look much different to the previous Scirocco but that's just my opinion. :popcornsoda:

I don't think it looks any difference from the old Scirocco to be honest.

New interior is nice though. Of course the Recaros are not going to be standard on the R....

The new R engine but in the old platform, bit random!

Should be quick though.
