volkswagen scirocco r

From now on, Volkswagen’s most powerful cars will bear a very different looking R. This is because Volkswagen R has launched a brand new R logo. The letter R is now stripped down to its essential components giving it a more distinct and sleek look. Klaus Bischoff, Head of Volkswagen Design Centre, and his team developed the new R logo together with Technical Development and the Volkswagen R Marketing Team. As the sportiest part of Volkswagen, designers carefully drew the R to be characterised by

Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM) has issued a recall notice today for 12,732 cars produced between 2011 and 2015. The issue to be rectified is the hydraulic pressure accumulator within the 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Failure of this component can possibly lead to pressure loss, interrupting power transmission between the engine and gearbox. These are the affected models. Models produced after 2016 are not affected. Beetle Cross Touran Golf (Mk.6 and Mk.7) Jetta Passat (B7) Passat CC Po

Launched last year, the all-wheel drive (AWD) Volkswagen Golf R Mk8 came with some truly tire-shredding numbers: 320 PS and 420 Nm from a turbocharged 2.0-litre engine. While those numbers are certainly going to tear up other hot hatches, there is one feature on this Golf R that will terrify the tyres and that is “Drift” mode.

Volkswagen has launched the all-new 2021 Volkswagen Golf R Mk8 to the world and it is the most powerful Golf ever. The flagship performance variant of the Golf range is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-litre engine that produces 320 PS and 420 Nm. The all-new Golf R features permanent all-wheel drive which is pretty much a standard across its 5 generations. But it keeps the exterior looking very subtle instead of showy. There’s a new front bumper with a motorsport-style splitter and R-specific air

Ask anyone who has ever driven a Volkswagen Golf R and they’ll tell you that it’s no slouch. However, German tuner ‘The Turbo Engineers’ thought that it needs a little more pep in its step. Enter what could possibly be the only five-cylinder Golf R in the world. The stock four-pot was swapped for a 2.5-litre turbo unit from the Audi RS3 but with a name like ‘The Turbo Engineers’, they took it upon themselves to strap a bigger turbo on it.

Launched in August 2020 as a CKD model, the main highlights of the Allspace are the additional seat in the third row (effectively making it a 7-seater) and also a new 2.0-litre TSI engine similar to the Golf GTI.

Like the recent surge in Malaysia's Covid-19 cases, the headlining numbers the 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan R makes are unignorable: 320 PS, 420 Nm and only 4.9 seconds to reach 0-100 km/h. It'll naturally draw parallels to the VW Golf R Mk8 and that's completely justifiable, since both of them share the same powertrain: EA888 evo4 2.0-litre, turbocharged four-cylinder mill and the DQ500 7-speed dual-clutch automatic (DSG).

There is only one trim available – the R-Line, priced at RM 221,065 (OTR without insurance and SST). To recap, VW Arteon's power comes from a 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that makes 190 PS and 320 Nm of torque. All that twisting force goes to the front wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (wet type). Exterior - Sleekest VW yet Volkswagen Arteon The VW Arteon is the sp
