As well as releasing prices for the 265HP Scirocco R, Volkswagen’s UK arm also announced the availability of the 2010MY Scirocco GT with the tweaked 2.0-liter TFSI that gains an extra 10-horsepower for a total output of 210HP. The company claims that this extra power reduces the sprint to 62 mph to 6.9 seconds for both the manual and DSG dual clutch gearboxes while top speed increases to 149 mph or 240km/h (147 mph for the DSG).

Furthermore, fitted with revised oil and cooling systems, the 210HP unit is also said to boast an improved fuel economy of 38.2 mpg UK (was 37.2 mpg UK) and emissions of 172 g/km of CO2 (down from 179) over the 200HP engine it replaces.
