VW BlueSport - mid-engined!


This is the Volkswagen Concept BlueSport, as shown at the Detroit US Auto Show this week.

It has a mid-mounted, VW 2.0-litre TDI engine producing 134 kW and 350 Nm. Power goes to the rear wheels via a six-speed dual-clutch DSG gearbox.

It can go 0-100km/h in 6.6 sec and reach 225 km/h, yet uses just 4.4 litres /100 km, and emits only 113 g/km of CO2. It can also be fitted with VW's Eco-mode stop-start system with brake regeneration, for even greater efficiency.

Not planned for production - yet - but what a nice machine !

Nice!
VW Porsche 914 re-incarnation?

I read up on it yesterday and I like it nice shape, lines and would look good in production form...

I'd buy one tomorrow!

I would think they would over pricde them at about R270k...

If you're lucky.

The Eos is priced at 326-368 00 rand.I would suspect this to be more.

And then there is most propably still no motorplan included??!?!?! Looks like the took a page out of the Audi TT design as well? It does look very slick, hope this one gets life "pumped" into it and it makes it for production!
