The Volkswagen Scirocco is a sport compact vehicle manufactured by Volkswagen from 1974 to 1992 for its first two generations and from 2008-2017 for its third generation. It has a three-door, four-passenger, front-engine, and front-wheel-drive layout.

The Scirocco has different specifications within North America due to its differing safety and emissions regulations as compared to the rest of the world markets. The second generation was replaced by the more expensive model vehicle, the Corrado in 1988 in the United States and 1989 in Canada. The third generation was released in Portugal in 2006 and went on the market in Europe in 2008. The Type 3 Scirocco won the 2008 Car of the Year award by Top Gear Magazine. The Scirocco was not available for sale within the United States due to the gap between the United States dollar and the Euro at the time as well as it would compete with the Golf GTI sales negatively.

It has good safety ratings, with a five-star safety rating from EuroNCAP, even though during the test, the dummy’s head hit the steering wheel when the airbag bottomed out. Something to consider in this vehicle. The vehicle earned 87% in Adult Occupant safety, 73% in Child occupant safety, 53% in pedestrian safety, and 71% in Safety Assist.
