The Volkswagen Scirocco is an imported vehicle by Volkswagen and does not belong to either FAW-Volkswagen or SAIC Volkswagen. The Volkswagen Scirocco, with its English name Scirocco, is a series under the Volkswagen brand. The vehicle is classified as a sports car. For example, the Scirocco 2016 1.4TSI-Club edition. The car's body dimensions are 4256/1810/1400 mm in length, width, and height, respectively. In terms of power, the Scirocco sports car is equipped with a 1.4T inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. It delivers a maximum power of 96 KW, a maximum horsepower of 131 PS, and a maximum torque of 225 N.m. The maximum power speed ranges from 5000-6000 rpm, and the maximum torque speed ranges from 1500-3500 rpm. The front suspension type is MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension type is multi-link independent suspension. The interior of the Scirocco features a pure black design, with a steering wheel adopting a racing-style flat-bottom design and sporty leather seats equipped with three aluminum alloy pedals. The Scirocco's paint process utilizes an electroplated tin technique, effectively preventing surface corrosion, maximizing oxidation resistance, and extending its service life.
I remember the Volkswagen Scirocco was a very cool sports car model, which belonged to the imported Volkswagen lineup and wasn't produced by FAW-Volkswagen or SAIC Volkswagen. FAW-Volkswagen handles joint-venture domestic production of cars like the Jetta and Magotan, while SAIC Volkswagen is responsible for localized production of models such as the Passat and Lavida. The Scirocco was originally imported from Germany, focusing on sporty style and performance, making it particularly eye-catching to drive. Unfortunately, it was discontinued in 2017, so now if you want to buy one, you can only look for used or imported channels, but maintenance parts might be a bit more expensive. If you like this style of car, you might want to check out other German import options, such as Porsche's entry-level models. In short, it's important to understand the ownership to avoid choosing the wrong repair shop and causing trouble.
