The Volkswagen Scirocco R20 is going to make its debut alongside an R20T version of the Golf at this month’s Nurburgring 24 hour endurance race.
Key features of the car lifted from the Scirocco Study R concept include the aggressively styled bumper with larger intakes and unique fog lights, as well as the slightly wider fenders and lower ride height.
Don’t be fooled by the sponsor logos plastered over the car’s body. The prototype has been disguised as a race car but a peek inside reveals the car has its rear seats fully intact and there’s no roll cage, which means this is a production model.
Both the Scirocco and Golf R20 models are expected to deliver 270hp (201kW) and be fitted with a six-speed manual and AWD. A dual-clutch DSG is also expected to be featured as an option, allowing for 0-62mph (100km/h) sprint times in the five second bracket. Unlike its fellow Euro-competition - the Renault Megane RS and Ford Focus RS - the R20 will capitalize on AWD for superior performance and handling.
First sales should start in Europe by the end of the year, while American fans can still look forward to the Golf R20 as this car will be replacing the MkV R32 model and should be on sale in local showrooms also by the end of the year.
