VW Unveiling IROC Concept In Paris

July 31, 2006 on 2:46 am | In Car News |

Volkswagen will reportedly be unveiling a concept called “IROC” at the Paris Motor Show, according to VWVortex.com. The name is an obvious tip-off that the concept will likely be the predecessor to the production Scirocco that Wolfsburg is planning.

VWVortex reports that the look will be a cross between the Eco-Racer concept with a Concept-A roofline on a coupe body. The front-engine, front-wheel drive Scirocco will be built in VW’s Portugal factory and has already been approved for sale in Europe.

While that doesn’t mean U.S. consumption is a given, response to the “IROC” concept in Paris and at upcoming auto shows in the U.S. will likely be a key factor in the company’s decision to bring the IROC back to the States.
