Detailed analysis of the Volkswagen Scirocco Hurricane 2.0 TDI 140 CV BlueMotion Technology (2012-2013)
General description
The Volkswagen Scirocco Hurricane 2.0 TDI 140 HP, launched in 2008, is a coupe that combines sportiness with efficiency. With its diesel engine and BlueMotion technology, this model offers an exciting driving experience without sacrificing fuel consumption. Its distinctive design and balanced performance make it an attractive option for those looking for a car with character and practicality.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the Scirocco Hurricane, the sensation is one of control and agility. The 2.0 TDI 140 HP engine, with its 320 Nm of torque available from low revolutions, offers a forceful response and acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.3 seconds. The electric power steering and well-tuned suspension, with McPherson at the front and a deformable parallelogram at the rear, provide a dynamic and precise driving experience, ideal for enjoying on winding roads. Despite its sporty focus, the combined consumption of 4.5 l/100km is remarkably low, allowing for long journeys with fewer stops.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the Volkswagen Scirocco Hurricane is unmistakably sporty and elegant. Its fluid lines and low silhouette give it an imposing presence. The three doors and the sloping roofline towards the rear reinforce its coupe character. Aesthetic details, such as the 18-inch wheels with 235/40 R18 tires, accentuate its sportiness. Inside, the cabin is designed for four occupants, offering a modern and functional environment, although the space in the rear seats is more limited, as is usual in coupes. The 292-liter trunk is sufficient for daily use.
Technology and features
This Scirocco incorporates technology that improves both performance and efficiency. The 2.0 TDI direct injection common rail engine, turbo with variable geometry and intercooler, is an example of advanced engineering. BlueMotion technology, which includes the Stop&Start system, contributes to reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions to 118 g/km. The 6-speed manual transmission allows precise control over engine power. In terms of safety and comfort, it features 345 mm ventilated disc brakes at the front and 310 mm discs at the rear, ensuring effective braking.
Competition
In the compact diesel coupe segment, the Volkswagen Scirocco Hurricane competes with models such as the Audi TT 2.0 TDI, the BMW 1 Series Coupe (although the latter is rear-wheel drive) or even the Peugeot RCZ. Compared to them, the Scirocco stands out for its balance between sportiness, efficiency and a competitive price of 27,570 euros at its launch. Its distinctive design and the reliability of Volkswagen mechanics are strong points that differentiate it from its competitors.
Conclusion
The Volkswagen Scirocco Hurricane 2.0 TDI 140 HP is a coupe that achieves an almost perfect balance between aesthetics, performance and efficiency. Its timeless design, its powerful and economical diesel engine, and its dynamic behavior make it a very attractive option for those looking for a car with personality and that is fun to drive every day. It is a vehicle that invites you to enjoy every journey, combining the passion for driving with the sensibility of contained consumption.
