Volkswagen Polo R WRC - The limited edition


Besides the actual rally car that will compete in next seasons WRC, Volkswagen presented the most powerfull Polo ever, with 220hp and 350Nm, limited to only 2.500 units.


It has 18-inch ‘Cagliari’ rally-inspired rims with bumpers designed specifically for this version in a blue, grey and white paint scheme for the car. Underneath the car has a 2liter engine connected to a six speed manual gearbox driving all four wheels.

It will do 0 to 100km/h (0 to 62mph) in just 6,4 seconds, which means it is faster than a Golf GTI, and will have a top speed of 243km/h (151mph).

No interior shots have been released but i am sure it will have the same outside treatment, with a special trim and colored stitching and still keep all the amenities like air conditioning and satellite navigation.

The price is €33.900 ($43.850 or £27,350) in Germany, but there won't be a "normal" VW Polo R version, atleast for now...
