TSI Cup and Volkswagen in AMS2

As per the tease on Twitter:

 

Oh nice!

 

✔️ Modern
✔️ Not too much power / aero

Happy with this

 

AMS2 badly needs a modern touring car that's fun to race so hopefully these will make it to main game as well...

 

These are the first VWs in AMS if I'm mistaken, no? I know the Fuscas are there too but I'm not sure if they're properly licensed
If so this opens the floodgates to a LOT of content that could come. Golf TCRs and the ID.R, anyone?

 

Wow, they kept this one quiet, mind you I guess they did say they were working on something with a large manufacturer. Anyway, great stuff!

 

Are these front-wheel drive? I hope they handle differently from the JCW Mini

 

Need for proper development update intensifies.

 

Of course!

 

God no!! 100% sure 100% of brazilian leagues will be using these cars now lol

 

Scirocco R please

 

The Scirocco III has been long discontinued in 2017 and was never part of a cup series. Prior to this tweet I speculated about the "Up! Cup". I was not that far off, as it seems.

According to the cars on the video, they are:

VW Virtus 2018+
VW Polo 2018+

They have at least 3 different setups in Brazil. If its a TSI version, they are 1.0 turbo engine, with 128 hp. In Europe there are some versions 1.5 with 150hp.

Let's wait and see if they will be more cars.

 

Also interesting that this seems stand alone since it’s not being indicated as part of AMS2. I would imagine a free stand alone product / series like was done before and then product integration into AMS2? Not sure how user cannibalization is managed if run in parallel.

 

Also, that first track didn’t look familiar, is it in AMS2?

The cars share the MQB-A0 plattform with all same sized VWs, Audis and Skodas worldwide. The engines can go up to 180hp. Usually it is to exspect that VW Cup cars have 30hp more then the according top of the line road models. Weight for a cup race cars might be 1000-1100Kg

 

I don't understand a single word though ... any portuguese-speaking cara willing to translate?
