Volkswagen Ushers in 210HP Version of 2.0 TFSI for Scirocco GT

|
As well as releasing prices for the 265HP Scirocco R, Volkswagen's UK arm also announced the availability of the 2010MY Scirocco GT with the tweaked 2.0-liter TFSI that gains an extra 10-horsepower for a total output of 210HP. The company claims that this extra power reduces the sprint to 62 mph to 6.9 seconds for both the manual and DSG dual clutch gearboxes while top speed increases to 149 mph or 240km/h (147 mph for the DSG).

Furthermore, fitted with revised oil and cooling systems, the 210HP unit is also said to boast an improved fuel economy of 38.2 mpg UK (was 37.2 mpg UK) and emissions of 172 g/km of CO2 (down from 179) over the 200HP engine it replaces.

I wish VW imported this car to the US. I would by it in a heartbeat. I don't care about the premium, I would pay it. Love the styling - add AWD dsg and its perfect.

Very nice... I seen many a Scirocco photo and thought it was okay.

I parked next to one (unintentionally) and thought - that's a really nice looking car!!

Strange what a 2D photo cannot capture from a 3D image.

Handsome,lovely sport coupe,but I feel more attracted at her sister,more practical Golf GTI,shared with same powertrain.
The new VW Golf GTI has 211bhp/1984cc direct-injection turbo unit,posting 0-62mph(0-100km/h) in mid-6secs(around 6.5sec),mated with DSG automated manual.
Namely she's as potent as the likes of Mercedes C350 and BMW 330i,as ecological as the BMW-sourced Mini Cooper S.
