Spyshots: future Volkswagen Scirocco

Here are the first spyshots of the future Scirocco hatchback, due to be launched in 2009. Based on the concept car unveiled at the latest Paris Motor Show in September 2006, the production car preserves the general design. The aggressive face of the concept car will be kept and will be a further step towards Volkswagen's new identity, initiated by the head of Volkswagen design Walter Da Silva.
According to insiders, Martin Winterkorn asked that the back end be redesigned when he took position as Volkswagen Group CEO last January. The concept car back end will have a less tortured style.
The hatchback coupé is based on the EOS convertible. As yet, no information have been given regarding a possible open top Scirocco. The plan is for the car to be sold in Europe, and it may not make it to the American market.
