 The new Scirocco GTS is now available for sale across Europe with prices in its home market ranging from €28,100 (equal to US$36,700) to €33,525 (US$43,800).

The GTS trim level can be combined with a selection of five engines, including the 158hp (160PS) 1.4-liter TSI and 207Hp (210PS) 2.0-liter TSI petrols, and the 138Hp (140PS) 2.0-liter TDI / 2.0 TDI BlueMotion and 168Hp (170PS) 2.0-liter TDI diesels.

What makes the GTS stand out from the other Sciroccos is a cosmetics package that includes stripes running from the bonnet, over the roof and down to the tailgate, red-colored mirrors, and in the case of the 2.0 TSI, brake calipers as well, 18-inch wheels (19-inch optional), a rear spoiler sourced from the 'R' model, and a new rear bumper with a diffuser.

The interior of the GTS is adorned with black seats with red stitching, piano black lacquer accents on the dashboard, the flat-bottom steering (also with red stiches) and the door trims, the GTS logo on the front seatbacks and the edging around the floor mats, and a bespoke gear knob in what VW calls "golf ball" style.
