Scirocco is the hottest looking Volkswagen out there currently and now ABT is making it even hotter.
Aerodynamic changes include a new ABT front spoiler, ABT Side skirts, ABT Rear skirt set, consisting of a rear skirt and a diagonally attached 4-pipe rear muffler forms a sporty unit together with the ABT Rear wing.
ABT Sportsline recommends either its BR or AR alloys as an ideal complement to the extravagant body kit of the shooting star. The wheels are available in 18 to 20 inch and of course with fitting tires and wheel spacers.
New springs make the Scirocco up to 30 millimeters lower – and thereby even more agile – on the road. The complete Upgrade Kit consists of the design pack, the 4-pipe rear muffler, the springs and complete wheel sets (19 inch AR alloys, diamond-machined and black, plus tires and wheel spacers) is available at the launch of the ABT Scirocco in January 2009 for 5,990 Euros.
ABT has also developed power refinements for the VW engine. The 1.4 TSI now offers 200 HP (147 kW) on the road with ABT Power instead of 160 hp (11 kW), and the turbo diesel with two liter capacity 170 hp / 125 kW (standard: 140 hp / 103kW) The ABT Scirocco will be available with these upgrades from the start. Later on in the year the compact sports coupe will also be available with an increased-power 2.0 TSI. With it the car has 240 hp / 177 kW (standard: 200 hp / 147 kW).
