The new model is set to make its debut around the year 2015, and according to a report from Caradvice, who spoke to Volkswagen Group head of design Walter de Silva, it will be revolutionary.
“It must be completely different. Completely,” de Silva was quoted as saying. “We don’t want to repeat the body style of the Scirocco, we want to change that. At the moment, it’s only a studio [project]. It’s not defined at the moment. We are still working…but we are looking 360 degrees,” he added
If they don't have their own ideas, perhaps they could take some inspiration from this interesting proposition.
Whatever plans VW may have, the next Scirocco will be a front-wheel drive car with all-wheel drive possibly offered as an option, so it will use the MQB platform that underpins the latest Golf, with which it will also share its range of engines. Furthermore, the new Scirocco might break the ice for the US market - the current model is not offered Stateside, as it not only steps on the toes of the GTI but it's also too expensive to be imported.
The new Scirocco promises to be a better different Volkswagen, so we look to 2015 with anticipation. Automotive design trends could change in two years, so we really don't know what we're going to get.
