Volkswagen chairman Wolfgang Bernhard is seriously considering building a mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive roadster based on the Volkswagen Concept R shown in 2003. According to 4Car, the car will be part of a 20-vehicle rollout over the next five years, which will include ten vehicles in markets currently unoccupied by VW.
