The Volkswagen Scirocco Returns

VW Scirocco

Seems like every car manufacturer is reaching into the playbook and pulling out something that will invoke nostalgia and stories of “I remember owning one of those in the [insert 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s here].” The new Volkswagen Scirocco may instill dreams of the past, but it won’t happen until you actually see the badge.

Gone are the hard lines of VWs past, replaced with the current curvy body, but still set apart from it’s Golf and EOS brothers with uniquely flared rear fenders and aggressive front fascia. Two engines are currently offered, a 1.4L TSI making 160HP and a 2.0L Diesel making 140HP, the later of which is registering 55MPG (the 1.4L TSI isn’t too shabby either with 43MPG).

Oh, I should also mention, don’t hold you breath for a US model this is currently only available in the UK.
