As a leash of race-prepared, factory-entered Scirocco racers took allotment in the Nürburgring 24-hour chase in 2008, a road-going sister car, the Scirocco GT24 Concept, was apparent in advanced of Volkswagen admirers at the anniversary Wörthersee Festival in Austria.
The Scirocco GT24 is abundant added than a administration exercise. At its affection is a race-tuned 2.0-litre four-cylinder TSI agent developing 300 PS at 6,500 rpm. This is akin to a six-speed DSG gearbox which channels drive to the advanced wheels. The gearbox appearance uprated clamp plates forth with revised accessory ratios and a lightened flywheel affiliated to a cogwheel lock.
The agent is based on the carapace of the Scirocco chase car, able by Volkswagen Motorsport in Hanover, and is accomplished in Volkswagen Antagonism Blue. Although abounding apparatus are agitated over from the alley car - a attestation to their backbone - the Scirocco GT24's ambit alter significantly, with a 227 mm accretion in breadth and 61 mm accretion in amplitude to board a added track. Lowered, adjustable chase damper units annual for a 75 mm bead in ride acme on a set of 18-inch failing antagonism auto apartment 362 mm (255 mm at the rear) antagonism anchor discs clamped by six-piston callipers.
It is fire-red and a absolute eyecatcher. Inside and out, the Golf GTI "Wörthersee 09" combines absorbing and different beheld looks with an alike college akin of achievement – it embodies absolutely those elements that accept consistently aflame 18-carat GTI fans. Consider the exoteric paint, for example. It shimmers in the appropriate aglow red blush "Firespark Metallic", which is again as a accomplished trim band on the high-gloss atramentous 19-inch admixture batten auto and in the archetypal GTI stripes of the radiator grille screen. Other actual characteristic anatomy details: an absolutely new smoked LED taillight design; its apparent clear architecture from the rear adds to the Golf GTI abstraction car's absolute character.
Full of style, the autogenous of the two-door GTI is agreeable too. Initial eyecatchers: high-end aluminum footstep plates with "GTI Wörthersee 09" signature. The abutting appropriate feature: trim in brushed aluminum and bright atramentous corrective frames about the air vents. The attic mats accept red borders as well. All of this makes an awfully aesthetic consequence and calls absorption to the adventurous aptitude of the allegorical "GTI" alike more.
At the 2009 North American International Auto Show Volkswagen presented an automotive dream - an affordable, exceptionally economical and awful active mid-engine roadster. Its name: Abstraction BlueSport. Status: concept. Dynamics: pure. Fuel consumption: an boilerplate of 55 mpg / 4,3 l/100 km; beneath than any added sports car. Positioning: genuine, low-emissions auto (113 g/km CO2) that makes every kilometer, every mile a active experience.
Behind the two action seats of the 3.99 beat continued Abstraction BlueSport (axle amount distribution: 45:55) is an alone answerable TDI or TSI agent that delivers dynamics - these are high-tech engines that absorb little but put out a lot. In the case of the Abstraction BlueSport adaptation now actuality presented in the USA it is a 132 kW / 180 PS able Clean Diesel (TDI) with accepted abuse bang and after NOx accumulator catalytic converter. At a low 1,750 rpm - i.e. appropriate from the agent acceleration 'cellar' - the 2.0 liter Turbo agent develops its best torque of 350 Newton-meters. That matches the ability acknowledgment of an approx. 300 PS able six-cylinder gasoline engine! A 6-speed bifold clamp manual - the best economical and active manual arrangement in the apple - transfers this ability to the rear wheels. It is confused either automatically or via about-face paddles on the council wheel. In aloof 6.2 abnormal the sports car is affective at a acceleration of 60 mph (0-100 km/h: 6,6 seconds); its top acceleration is 140 mph (226 km/h).
Designed, engineered and developed by Volkswagen Individual, the Scirocco R is not alone the best able and fastest accelerating Scirocco anytime produced but additionally the best focussed R archetypal yet. At its affection is a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder EA113 agent (as against to the EA888 adapted to the accepted Scirocco) in heavily revised form. The block has been able with an absolutely new admixture head, uprated pistons, conrods and aerial burden injectors. An uprated Turbocharger breeding 1.2 bar of addition is abutting by a new intercooler to cope with the added calefaction generated. The aftereffect is 265 PS and 258 lbs ft of torque - a acceleration of 65 PS and 51 lbs ft over the Scirocco's accepted 2.0-litre TSI engine.
Drive is channelled through the advanced auto via a six-speed chiral or DSG gearbox. Ensuring greater anchor in all conditions, abnormally on bound corners, is XDS (first apparent on the new Golf GTI) an cyberbanking cross-axle absorption ascendancy system. As with the blow of the Scirocco range, the Scirocco R is adapted with Adaptive Chassis Ascendancy (ACC). This allows the disciplinarian to baddest from normal, abundance or action modes to ascertain the adapted suspension, council and accelerator acknowledgment settings for the altitude and journey. The braking arrangement has additionally been uprated with beyond discs and callipers, the closing accomplished in appearance black.
The automated changes to the Scirocco R are abutting by a bent new look. The new advanced bumper, featuring a set of LED active lights, is bedeviled by a leash of abysmal airdams while the Xenon lights, adapted as standard, anatomy a new appearance atramentous grille aspect set into which is a distinct 'R' badge.
The best able and fastest-accelerating Golf anytime produced – the Golf R – was apparent at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show. Developed by Volkswagen Individual, the appropriate projects addition of Volkswagen, and afterward on from the Mk IV and Mk V Golf R32 models, the Golf R is able with a 2.0-litre TSI four-cylinder agent developing 270 PS and four-wheel drive.
Not alone is the new agent 35 kg lighter and 20 PS added able than the 3.2-litre V6 begin in the approachable Golf R32, it's additionally added efficient. Economy rises from a accumulated 26.4 mpg to 33.2 mpg while CO 2 emissions abatement from 257 g/km to 199 g/km. Despite the assets in ability the Golf R is faster and bluff than anytime – the new car can advance from blow to 62 mph in aloof 5.7 seconds. Able with a six-speed DSG gearbox, this amount avalanche to 5.5 abnormal while top acceleration is bound to 155 mph.
The 1,984 cc, four-cylinder EA113 agent (as against to the EA888 adapted to the accepted Golf GTI) is acquired from the Mk V Golf GTI. To abstract the added ability the block has been able with an absolutely new admixture head, uprated pistons, conrods and aerial burden injectors. An uprated turbocharger breeding 1.2 bar of addition is abutting by a new intercooler to cope with the added calefaction generated. The aftereffect is 270 PS developed at 6,000 rpm and 258 lbs ft of torque at 2,500 rpm.
