Volkswagen currently competes with much success in the World Rally Championship, WRC. What does the WRC Polo, a machine that adapts to the current legislation of the championship? But there are alternatives such as Prodrive, which has invented a Volkswagen Golf VII SCRC, a sort of WRC will probably never get to see compete.
No, not a prototype or a demonstration of power, but a request that arrives from China to run there their own rally championship. Therefore, we will not see in the WRC and probably also in other markets, it has similar specs to the Volkswagen Golf VII SCRC previous generation.
For starters, it is based on a Volkswagen Golf VII SCRC, seventh generation, larger than the Polo body and that of the other participants in the World. Hence we start to build a rally car to last, with widened tracks and fins, new air intakes in the bumper, hood and even roof, rear diffuser and a huge spoiler.

Inside all those gadgets we sell the brand in their ads, but completely empty to minimize weight not appear. The driving position is delayed, deleted windows practicable, controls congregate in one panel and the frame is replaced by a display and, finally, a roll cage is placed.
And this Volkswagen Golf VII SCRC aint no half measures. If the Golf production will increase to R400 you know little, it moves with a block supercharged 2.0 35mm flange for admission and maximum pressure of 2 bar blowing. The power, but not officially established, more than 330 horses.
To this is added a system of permanent four wheel drive, but also a new sequential gearbox with hand lever positioned well for the pilot. As you might expect, we used high-performance brakes AP Racing full suspension and adjustable Ohlins signed to perform at maximum potential next car.
And the potential is that Prodrive will dare the Chinese market with its Volkswagen Golf VII SCRC, a model that has been developed with the pilot Jari Ketomaa and has had the opportunity of taking a known driver Chris Atkinson, forever linked to Prodrive conglomerate. You should take part this season in the Rally Championship Asia-Pacific and, for now, it has already secured its first win.
