After debuting the all-new Scirocco at March’s Geneva Motor Show, Volkswagen has finally released pricing on its new hot hatch. Set to go on sale in mid-November in the UK, the Scirocco will list from £20,500 – just over 40,000 in American dollars.
However, that conversion is useless to us since VW has no plans to sell the Scirocco on this side of the Atlantic – and the fact that the dollar is pretty much worthless compared to any other form of currency in the developed world.
For the price of entry, Scirocco buyers will receive a 122 horsepower 1.4L TSI version of the hatch. However, this base model will not be available at launch. Instead, the first Scirocco buyers will have to choose between 160 and 200 horsepower versions of VW’s TSI gasoline engines. A 140 horsepower TDI engine will join the Scirocco range alongside the 1.4L powerplant.
