Volkswagen introduces Polo R WRC Street concept

Volkswagen unveiled the Polo WRC Street concept at the 31st GTI Meeting in Wörthersee, Austria.

The Polo R WRC Street stands out from its lesser siblings thanks to a bunch of new aero parts like the redesigned front bumper with larger air vents and a lip spoiler, a rear diffuser, black wheel arch extensions, a rear wing and larger alloy wheels.

The car is equipped with 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine pumping out 217hp; Volkswagen promises  the Polo R WRC will be faster than the Golf GTI.

The VW Polo R WRC will start a small series production run in late 2013.
