2014 brought a facelift for the Volkswagen Scirocco, six years after the launch of the third-generation model.
An all-new Scirocco is expected in 2017 at the earliest, and reports so far are pointing towards a change of recipe, with the next-generation Scirocco tipped to migrate from the shooting brake shape towards a full-fledged sports coupe body style.
However, Photoshop manipulator X-Tomi has imagined the next-generation Scirocco as an evolution of the current model, applying styling cues from VW’s current arsenal (the Passat headlights being the most obvious) on the shooting brake body.
Honestly, it looks more like a facelift than an all-new model, but the same can be said about many of VW’s launches from recent years…
The next-generation VW Scirocco will continue to be based on the Golf platform, but unlike the current model, it will benefit from the modern MQB architecture. This should make it lighter by about 100 kg (220 lbs) – combine that with more powerful engines and the upcoming Scirocco promises to be more exciting than ever.
