In their quest to lower the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption even further, Volkswagen announced new BlueMotion variant of the Scirocco in the UK market.
With the BlueMotion 2.0-litre 140 PS engine, this gorgeous hatchback benefits from a remarkable improvement in fuel consumption,from 55.4 mpg to 62.8 mpg on the combined cycle (51.4 to 57.6 DSG), while the emissions are also reduced accordingly, down from 134 g/km to 118 g/km (145 to 129 DSG).
It comes as standard with Stop/Start and battery regeneration systems.
VW has also fiddled with the 2.0-litre TDI 170 PS engine fitted to the Scirocco GT so it now offers lower CO2 emissions. Pricing for the Scirocco BlueMotion starts from 21,500 GBP and goes up to 24,755 GBP.
