VW Scirocco coming to the PRC

The first generation VW Scirocco was the stuff of dreams to a 15 year old China Car Times back in the day, ‘I will have one of those when I grow up, Max Power style!’ Sadly, soon after that, CCT ended up in China, where there are no VW Scirocco’s to be found, until now. VW have announced that the  Scirocco will be making a splash landing into the PRC in November 2008 where it is expected to be officially launched at the Guangzhou Auto Show. The 6th generation Golf GTI is also expected to be launched in China at the same time, although internet reports do say that the Scirocco will be coming prior to the Golf GTI.VW are attempting to spice up their incredibly large line up in China with some interesting cars, such as the Passat CC coupe, EOS and now the Scirocco. Pricing has yet to be announced, but the current VW Golf GTI costs a pretty penny at 390,000rmb to 410,000rmb.

Has VW announced when the Passat CC will be coming here?

I think we mentioned it once or twice before, there was some debate as to what moniker it would wear in the PRC. The Passat is an older model car, and the Magotan is the newer version, will it become a Magotan CC or stay as a Passat CC?

FAW-Volkswagen will start the Passat CC production in 2010. The model will come out on the Volkswagen PQ46 platform, which is the same like the Magotan platform. So it is actually a Magotan CC
