Called the Concept A, its the brainchild of a bunch of wacky Germans who sat around a table and asked themselves what CANT they get a car to do. The result is this car/truck/sports car combo. Powered by a twincharged (thats supercharged and turbocharged in case you were wondering) 1.4L four-cylinder that cranks out 150 horsepower, the Concept As drivetrain motto is "maximum driving pleasure, minimum consumption." And yes, you read that right; this car actually has a drivetrain motto. Lame, but true... anyway, all that power gets to the ground via a six-speed manual transmission and Volkswagens all-wheel drive system; 4Motion. Volkswagen is quick to point out, though, that while this "study" comes equipped with this particular drivetrain, they can easily fit both the Polo GTIs 200 horsepower direct-injection powerplant, or for the more fuel conscious, a diesel. As the press release says, "Studies can do, and are allowed anything."
