A conceptual model called the Iroc was unveiled at the 2006 Paris Motor Show, a prophet of the new Scirocco. Introduced in 2008, the Scirocco can be equipped with three petrol and one diesel engine. The 4-cylinder 1.4-liter TSI with two turbines develops 122 hp (90 kW) or 160 hp (118 kW), a 200 hp (147 kW) 2-liter TSI petrol engine (currently available on Passat, EOS and Jetta models) and a 2.0-liter TDI engine with 140 hp (103 kW) (currently included in the Tiguan model). Three new Scirocco models took part in the 24 Hours of Nurburgring, where they achieved great results - they took 11th and 15th place out of more than 200 participants.
The Volkswagen Scirocco is used as a sports car in a ring race. In the 2008 24-hour Nürburgring, the two Scirocco finished 11th (driven by Hans Joachim Stuck) and 15th (driven by Carlos Sainz) among 200 competitors, many of whom were much more powerful cars.
Volkswagen Scirocco participates in the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship and is not fueled with petrol, but with biofuels.
Control, reliability, appearance, low depreciation, quality in the interior, good insulation.

Car description
I have had this car for about a year, I can only rejoice that the old dream of having a sportier but quite comfortable car has come true. I was really surprised by the control of this car, you can just enjoy driving in the city, but when driving off the highway it is not really tiring, even strange that having such a good parking on the road does not lose comfort. It was at this point that the scirocco found a golden mean between control and comfort. The sound insulation is really not bad, I didn't feel much difference even after sitting under the audi model. German quality feels and no one in the interior No rattle and everything is very comfortable, but of course the conservatism volkswagen also feels that can be considered boring when it comes to a sportier car. Looks like it's not even a language just enjoy can and even feel like a note with a 10 year old machine. Because when most said and as scirocco I wanted but did not buy for various reasons, such as two doors really is not convenient for everyone. For me personally, that doesn?t bother me at all. Surprised the trunk maybe small but very deep and weighs in the rear seats this even the bike I put in the wheel will take off. Sitting in the front feels like a lot of space in the cabin, and in the back, it can accommodate two people, but friends are not sure that there is a lack of space. As for the technical side, I had no problem, because it is not difficult to buy such a little one with low mileage. (Even diesel, because these cars are not bought for long trips or as work) And for me, this is one of the most important things. Tip for buyers just watch with Vin code to check mileage. And of course not assembled from two parts. In summary, if you had a dream ever to drive one car or another then just take it and buy it.
