With the Volkswagen R32 only boasting 250 horsepower, it seems the company’s hot hatch is starting to cool off in light of newer offering by competitors but VW will soon rectify the situation by bringing the Golf R20 to the United States.

Unlike today’s R32, the new R20 will feature Volkswagen’s 2.0-liter turbocharged engine with direct injection which will be tuned to produce 270 horsepower. This should enable the R20 to post a 0-60 mph time in the low to mid five second range and reach an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph.

The exterior will carry over many of the new GTI’s styling traits but should also include more aggressive front and rear ends and a center mounted dual exhaust. Initially the R20 will be offered only in three-door hatchback form but a five-door model could eventually be offered down the road.

Volkswagen will officially debut the new Golf R20 on May 21 at the ADAC 24-hour race at Germany’s Nürburgring racing circuit and European sales will start later this year.

Volkswagen’s Concept BlueSport was unveiled in Detroit as a study car in combining great fuel economy with a sporty looks. The mid-engined roadster has a 2.0-litre TDI engine producing 180 bhp,  claiming to take just 6.6 seconds to reach 0 - 100km/hof and has a top speed of 226km/h (140mph). A 6-speed dual clutch transmission – the most economical and agile transmission system in the world – transfers this power to the rear wheels. Gears can be changed either automatically or via shift paddles on the steering wheel.

The car named the Concept BlueSport and presented in Flex Silver painted and sporting an orange coloured fabric roof – was designed by the team led by Klaus Bischoff (Director of Design for the Volkswagen Brand) and Thomas Ingenlath (Director of the Design Center in Potsdam). “The design of the Concept BlueSport,” says Klaus Bischoff, “represents a perfect synthesis of technology and aesthetics. Its form is very clear and is reduced to essentials; the car body itself has a lean and linear structure.” Thomas Ingenlath adds: “Emanating powerfully from this car body are the circular wheel housings, flared out in three dimensions as in a sculture. The radial surfaces, edges and blending of forms emphasize the wheels and thereby the agility of the BlueSport concept car. The lateral air intakes are identifying features of the mid-engine layout, their volume-reducing design offers visualization of the car’s sporty low weight.”

When looking at the design you will notice the Concept BlueSport is characterized by a new Volkswagen design language introduced for the first time on the Scirocco and the new Golf. It is based on a ‘design DNA’ that will leave its mark on all new Volkswagens.

Here’s a nice review of the 2009 Volkswagen Passat CC, clearly addressing the good and bad things.

As old as it is, the VR6 is still a smooth, strong engine. Combined with the six-speed “tiptronic,” it responds swiftly and smoothly to throttle input. And with the CC’s supple ride quality and quiet cabin (wind noise, even with frameless windows, is virtually nonexistent), it really does feel like a more premium product than the regular Passat.

Car Magazine reports on the next-generation VW due in 2012. Here are some interesting sections:

The next Passat will retain its current transverse engine layout but will sit on the much vaunted new ultra-flexible MQB architecture – and with far-reaching consequences. The Passat will never be allowed to pitch itself more upmarket than its DNA permits, which means no pseudo-executive W8 nonsense. The Passat family will grow to include Passat saloon and estate, the new Passat CC and will – eventually – spawn the replacement Touareg and Tiguan.
