2014 Volkswagen Scirocco facelift unveiled with a series of cosmetic and engine updates

Volkswagen has recently revealed the 2014 Scirocco facelift to be publicly unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show.

Talking about the exteriors, there are not much modifications as Volkswagen has installed only a slightly re-profiled bumper, new bi-xenon headlights with LED daytime running lights and they also tweaked the grille. At the rear there are restyled LED taillights, along with a reworked bumper and boot lid. There are five new exterior paints to select from called – Pyramid Gold, Urano Grey, Flash Red, Pure White and Ultra Violet. There are also new alloy wheel designs while on the inside the materials have been upgraded and there is also an additional set of gauges for the oil temperature, chronometer and turbocharger pressure.

Coming to interiors, the facelifted Scirocco comes with a redesigned flat-bottomed leather-wrapped steering wheel, new air vents and gauges which seem to be taken from the Golf GTI. Other highlights include a “Dynaudio Excite” audio system, a ParkAssist system and a covered storage compartment next to the handbrake lever.

All engines now come as standard with stop/start and battery regeneration mode, with the exception of the 280 HP motor inside the Scirocco R. Engines are mated to a six-speed manual gearbox or an optional dual-clutch DSG (not available for the 1.4 TSI) sending power exclusively to the front wheels.
