Gas in a sense, every word: Three of the Volkswagen Scirocco GT24 version powered by a gasoline engine with 315 PS TSI. Two other VW Scirocco GT24 cars carry more CNG label, designating compressed natural gas, because the TSI is fired with clean combusting natural gas – an exception in car racing. The 300 PS Volkswagen Scirocco GT24-CNG cars have very low emissions. After the victory and put the seal on the Dakar Rally with the Race Touareg powered by a fuel-efficient TDI (direct-injection diesel), Volkswagen is now going on the issues of sustainable development in the Volkswagen Scirocco GT24 also – and emphasize – on the race course.

VW Scirocco R – from car racing to the street: This is not a Scirocco’s first race of this type. This has been rung up Volkswagen based on the areas of opportunity as far back as the 1970s. And in 2008, experts like Carlos Sainz and Hans-Joachim Stuck rocketed two VW Scirocco GT24 car to a double victory in the classroom. In 2009, will be even more interesting. Because for the first time, this event provides an opportunity to take a good look at the street car racing in the form of new, R. Volkswagen Scirocco first production car will be produced this year, later, with a six-speed transmission or – as in race car Volkswagen Scirocco – with the optional DSG 6-speed transmission your feet. Always aboard equipment as standard on all-wheel drive vehicle in front: of course the XDS electronic horizontal on the front axle to achieve optimal performance traction; system was introduced for the first time the new Volkswagen Golf GTI.

More intelligent dynamic performance by downsizing: Like all of the TSI engine, the R-version of the combined effect of the vaccine directly to the power of motivating. Although downsizing engine displacement and number of cylinders, 1984 cm3 of SixTeEn-valve, four-cylinder engine to develop significantly more power (+ 15 PS) and Torque (+ 30 Newton-meter) than the six-cylinder recent Volkswagen’s Golf R32. Specifically, the 2.0-liter TSI in the new VW Scirocco R attains a maximum power of 265 PS at 6000 rpm. Torque is the maximum – a hefty 350 Newton-m – is available on a vast range of engine speed: 2,500 to 5,000 rpm. This makes for agile’s tools, which can spontaneously summon Torque blink of an eye in practice within any speed. Engine production by acoustic impressively under all kinds of special strength development. The exhaust system itself is designed as a dual-flow system. Oval chrome tailpipes extend from bumper, a left and one on the right.

Engine of the Year for Volkswagen Scirocco R: The in-line four cylinder, which has earned four “Engine of the year” awards, building on its strong through a turbocharger Torque (up to 1.2 to increase the pressure) with intercooling. Engine, weighing in at only 152 kg, is controlled fully by the management of the electronic E-gas. Four of the cylinder pistons are bolts with higher strength than the stronger. The connection rods are also designed to be more robust, reliable transmission to the engine’s crankshaft to Torque. Because hefty engine’s power is generated, the cylinder block itself has been enhanced.

All this has a high dynamic effect: The light 1333 kg VW Scirocco R needs just 6.0 seconds short to medium term Sprint 80 to 120 km / h in gear. This is exactly the type of driving this, with a feeling of building up to a maximum Torque is the “feel” right from idling, which differentiate the car this sport. This is an impressive, cool Cruiser for all routes and days of the year. However, the downshift and the car full throttle awaken one of the second R Volkswagen Scirocco: a wild beast that sprints from a standstill to 100 km / h in just 6.5 seconds, which means unlimited e until it reaches 250 km / h and 6320 rpm, and that accomplishes Sprint Classic 1000 meters in 25.9 seconds.

It is said that this VW Scirocco will also have an option your feet transmission (DSG). Those who choose the improved 6-speed DSG will experience faster, even a sprinting R Volkswagen Scirocco: the 100 km / h mark drops to 6.4 seconds here. As is so often with a DSG, dynamic performance in profit (and comfortable) is by no means to buy at cost fuel efficiency or emissions. In fact, the opposite is true, as proven by the average 8.2 liters of fuel consumption and 192 g / km CO2.

XDS compensates for understeer: Immediately after detecting intelligent electronic unloading of the wheels at the front of a fast in the drive, and irrigation ESP applies braking pressure to this specific wheel to restore optimal traction. Therefore, act as a XDS across the course that compensates for the typical understeer-front wheel’s drive in fast cars driving cong. The behavior of the driver was agile Volkswagen Scirocco R is significantly more accurate and neutral through XDS.

Chassis layout from production: In front, the Volkswagen Scirocco R McPherson has a track suspension for accurate and comfortable balance property. At the rear, it is a four-link suspension that convincingly meet the challenges of achieving the chassis is comfortable playing yet.

DCC optimal resolution Dilemma between comfort and dynamics, is a choice, the VW Scirocco R will also be provided with DCC Chassis this dynamic. This system continuously adjusts the damping of each wheel based on road conditions on the signals from three body displacement Sensors and Sensors for each wheel. During speed, braking and the steering, chassis damping is stiffened in fractions of a second to optimize the vehicle dynamic response requirements. By automatically adjusting, DCC significantly increase driving comfort in the situation that has not been challenged very dynamic, resolving conflicts between the goals stiff and play the most comfortable. Besides the “normal” DCC mode, the driver can also choose the “Sports” or “Comfort” mode.

New R-Styling wheel: includes equipment and new standards are designed 18-inch alloy wheels ( “Talladega” type) with size 235/40 tires. An optional 19-inch versions of the same type of wheels are also provided. Both wheel-tire combination supported in achieving horizontal dynamics of the new sports car.

17-inch braking system Maximum deceleration: The braking system has also been modified to handle the VW Scirocco R higher level of performance driving. That is why a 17-inch will be used, instead of a 16-inch, all four brake discs are ventilated and R-specific brake calipers painted in glossy black. At the front, on disk, with diameter of 345 millimeters, and in the rear 310 millimeters. The electronic stability (ESP) has also been modified. A sport mode can be selected by pressing the ESP button. This makes the response later in ESP, a fast, driving on roads with many curves – for example: a course on race – to process more agile. The mechanical power steering of the Volkswagen Scirocco R is given a sportier tune cong.

After ending with two flow exhaust system: comparison with all other products Sciroccos, images behind the vehicle is dominated by a larger roofs competition spoiler and a diffuser glossy black in the lower area typical of that R-bumper design Styling. Both of the components – next diffuser and roof spoiler – reduce aerodynamic lift at the rear axle. Stylistically, the oval chrome tailpipes of the two-flow exhaust system are harmoniously integrated into the overall design of the back. One of the tailpipe on the left and right boundaries defined between the diffuser and black bumper paint colors in a car. In addition, the taillights of the new Volkswagen Scirocco R are said to be smoke tint.

The profile with new R-wheel: The view is characteristic of strong style side skirts painted in car color, as well as new “Talladega” style R-alloy wheels in 18-inch format. The milled, polished wheels sport in the three spokes is as visually unique and striking as the wheel of the Golf GTI ( “Denver”) and offer a very attractive view of the large 17-inch system braking glossy black calipers and R-symbols. As an option, Volkswagen also offers a version of 19-inch “Talladega” wheels (named after a race in America). Like the brake calipers, outside’s VW Scirocco R always painted a glossy black, with independent color car.

The interior decoration of the new VW Scirocco R altogether presented a refined appear. Like all R-models, specifically marked interior decoration, sports seats (in optional leather) and more dynamic, was applied. And is equipped as standard. Details of the features distinguish from other Volkswagen Scirocco R version with up to 200 PS power:

* Sports seats with the system, including accommodation in Kyalami “Textiles (named after Formula 1 race-course in South Africa), with R-logo on the front head restraints in the” Art Gray. ” Surface of the contoured seat support has been crystal gray microfibers.
* Unique DECOR aluminum insert in the tool. High-gloss black mark in the center from the area, door handle, gearshift grip, vents and air, steering wheel spokes.
* Parking brake grip and gearshift in leather trim, with “Art Gray” decorative seams. Floor mat inserts are in “Art Gray.”
* Aluminum tread plate with R-Logo in the
* Instruments and white with blue backlighting and speedometer only up to 300 km / h.
* Multifunctional leather steering wheel, flat-bottomed, in the R-design (three spokes, perforated leather in the upper and lower third grip recesses and to the left), with “Art Gray” decorative seams, R-symbols lower than in the steering wheel and said multifunctional key in the steering wheel through the spokes. When R Volkswagen Scirocco DSG is a command version, the steering wheel is equipped with the shift paddles (+/-).

All sports are widely Sciroccos list of features. Standards, including features on the six airbags, ESP with countersteering support, mechanical power steering, work lights the day, semi-automatic climate control ( “Climatic”), central locking RF remote control with power windows and door, to name just a few details. VW Scirocco R on, this list is extended to include features as under “furniture”. The additional functionality features include:

* Bi-Xenon headlights including equity lighting, dynamic headlight level control, headlight cleaning system and warning lights for low-level washing fluid.
