The 2.0-liter, 265-horsepower front-wheel-drive hot hatch comes in two versions: six-speed manual and six-speed DSG, either of which will get you to 60 mph in six seconds or less.<\/p>\n<p>The R is loaded with tech and mods: XDS electronic transverse differential lock to combat understeer, Dynamic Chassis Control for variable damping, Anti-Slip Regulation, and massive 17-inch brakes among other features. If that makes you want to see what one can do in the corners, VW&#8217;s already found out: two slightly more powerful Sciroccos won the 2.0-liter turbo class at the 24 Hours of N&uuml;rburgring earlier this year. <\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s an exhaustive press release after the jump that will tell you all about it, and a high-res gallery of photos below if you like your stories in pictures.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-volkswagen-scirocco-r\/low\/\">2010 Volkswagen Scirocco R<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-volkswagen-scirocco-r\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/01_vw_scirocco_r_nice_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-volkswagen-scirocco-r\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/02_vw_scirocco_r_nice_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-volkswagen-scirocco-r\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/03_vw_scirocco_r_nice_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-volkswagen-scirocco-r\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/04_vw_scirocco_r_nice_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-volkswagen-scirocco-r\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/05_vw_scirocco_r_nice_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n[Source: Volkswagen]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/10\/more-pics-aplenty-vw-plays-up-scirocco-r-with-new-pics-detai\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>(More) Pics Aplenty: VW plays up Scirocco R with new pics, details<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/10\/more-pics-aplenty-vw-plays-up-scirocco-r-with-new-pics-detai\/\">(More) Pics Aplenty: VW plays up Scirocco R with new pics, details<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Thu, 10 Dec 2009 16:56:00 EST.
