On June 20, 2014, the brand new Volkswagen Beetle GRC was released. GRC stands for (Redbull) Global Rallycross. This specific vehicle is a more angry and aggressive version of the Volkswagen Beetle. It gets 544 horsepower and weighs as little as 2668 pounds.
The Volkswagen Beetle GRC features a six-speed transmission, fixed-ratio
all-wheel-drive system, and 17-inch wheels.
"With this combination of low weight,
high horsepower, and all-wheel-drive traction, the Beetle GRC is
predicted to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in an incredibly quick 2.1 seconds." - AutoBlog
The Volkswagen Beetle GRC will run later this
season in the Red Bull Global Rallycross championship. Behind the wheel will be Andretti Autosport and Scott Speed. The race debut date has not been announced.
Jost Capito, Volkswagen Motorsport director, said: "After Volkswagen of
America's impressive start on the rallycross scene with the Polo, the
launch of the new Beetle GRC rallycross car represents the next major
milestone. The Beetle boasts a unique appearance and state-of-the-art
technology. It will sweep fans off their feet."
