never heard of it referred to that way before! Never mind
Interesting if this is true, and not a photoshop
From that gallery:
This implies a 0 - 62 time of 5.1 for DSG and 5.4 for the manual, which would also indicate 4wd and would be fantastic if that's the case, here's hoping!!
I would very much doubt that the new Cupra will be 4 wheel drive.
2
reasons
firstly the dealer network is so poor they wont be able to support warranty claims with a 4 wheel drive system , can you imagine the conversations with your dealer about a fault?
secondly the reason why the 0-60 times are quicker is down to the weight saving aluminium platform that is being used in the new MK7 Golf R , there are talks of between a 200-300 kg weight saving on the golf alone.
so i think that will be the fundemental reason why the Cupra wont have 4wd.
Recon, if being honest we all doubt it'll have 4wd, valid point re the dealer situ too, would be nice tho! However I don't believe even a 300 kg diet would enable a front wheel drive car to hit 0-60 in 5.1, that's the domain of rwd, 4wd or heavily modified fwd cars, the new S3 only gets down to 5.2 and that has the benefit of 4wd traction for the take off.
If its four wheel drive and DSG I am in
