The Scirocco Type 13 was never part of Volkswagen's official Russian lineup (RU cars are gray-import EU-spec units), so the catalog correctly carries no RU rows. Its front-drive-only 3-door coupe range spans EA111/EA211 1.4 TSI, EA888/EA888.3 2.0 TSI (plus the EA113-based pre-facelift 265 PS R and the EA888 gen3 280 PS facelift R), with EA189 (pre-facelift) and EA288 (post-facelift) 2.0 TDI diesels — all via 6MT, dry DQ200 (1.4 TSI) and wet DQ250 (2.0 TSI/TDI) DSG. Adversarial review confirmed every trap-prone claim: the facelift 1.4 TSI 125 PS correctly moved to EA211 (CZCA), the facelift R 280 PS is EA888 gen3 (not EA113), the diesel platform split EA189→EA288 is right, and there is no 1.9 TDI, VR6/V8, or 4Motion. No rows were false or over-scoped.

Filtered: EA111-1.4-TSI · 1.4L I4 turbo petrol TSI (EA111, CAVx/CTHx).
