Sounds interesting - though it'll have to put out more than 206kW to be worth the extra weight/fuel consumption over the current 206kW turbo 4.
IMO - the V6 option would need to go faster than a Golf R at 4.6s (0-100 kph). A naturally-aspirated V6 may struggle to do that... but an electric variant shouldn't have too much trouble =P2018 Arteon R-Line - Black, Sunroof, Dynaudio, 20" Wheels, RacingLine: Stage 2 ECU+DSG|380mm BBK|Intercooler+Hoses|Oil Cooler|R600 Intake|Adjustable Front Droplinks|Dogbone Insert|Subframe Brace+Alignment Kit|Propshaft Alignment Kit, Milltek: Zirotec Downpipe, Harding: Front+Rear Sway Bars|Rear Droplinks, Other: OSRAM Dynamic Indicators, EvcX Throttle Controller, 034 (RED) Coil Packs, Various Carbon Bits

Looks like it'll be a turbo 6 according to this review =)

VW has been working on a twin turbo VR6 from 2013 when it fitted the engine into the GTI Concept with 500HP (that would be around 367KW). There is talks about a 300KW version pending approval for production. But with new Euro 6c emissions law kicking in 2018 yet to hear more. Would be lot faster than 4.6 sec Golf R.Originally posted by nermal View PostLooks like it'll be a turbo 6 according to this review =)

I'm guessing that is CGI? don't think you'd be able to turn the wheels, with them being so jammed into the wheel-arch.2018 Arteon R-Line - Black, Sunroof, Dynaudio, 20" Wheels, RacingLine: Stage 2 ECU+DSG|380mm BBK|Intercooler+Hoses|Oil Cooler|R600 Intake|Adjustable Front Droplinks|Dogbone Insert|Subframe Brace+Alignment Kit|Propshaft Alignment Kit, Milltek: Zirotec Downpipe, Harding: Front+Rear Sway Bars|Rear Droplinks, Other: OSRAM Dynamic Indicators, EvcX Throttle Controller, 034 (RED) Coil Packs, Various Carbon Bits

Anybody know if the sunroof in them will be a proper sunroof (ie. the internal roof is a 100% full block of the sun), or if it'll be like a moon roof (ie. the internal slider is a fabric that always lets some amount of light through)?My car: MY18 Arteon

Interesting article mentions that the upcoming (electric) ID AEROe may be something along the lines of an Arteon: Volkswagen working on sporty electric liftback – report
An electric (performance) Arteon would be something I'd line up to put a deposit on.Last edited by nermal; 13-07-2017, 05:02 PM.2018 Arteon R-Line - Black, Sunroof, Dynaudio, 20" Wheels, RacingLine: Stage 2 ECU+DSG|380mm BBK|Intercooler+Hoses|Oil Cooler|R600 Intake|Adjustable Front Droplinks|Dogbone Insert|Subframe Brace+Alignment Kit|Propshaft Alignment Kit, Milltek: Zirotec Downpipe, Harding: Front+Rear Sway Bars|Rear Droplinks, Other: OSRAM Dynamic Indicators, EvcX Throttle Controller, 034 (RED) Coil Packs, Various Carbon Bits
