The Scirocco has been revealed. Journalists were jostling for position to get a clear view of the stunning new VW coupé, and these are the first pictures taken from the show floor.

TAKE a look at Citroen"s first plug-in baby. This is the C-ZERO ò€“ a fully fledged zero emission electric car that will reach Citroen showrooms next year.
If it looks familiar that"s because it"s essentially identical to Mitsubishi"s i-MIEV and the Citroen version gets the same drivetrain, with a 64bhp electric motor powered by a lithium-ion battery.
Owners can charge the C-ZERO by plugging it directly into a household socket, and a full charge takes six hours. An 80 per cent charge is possible in just 30 minutes using a 400V supply. Citroen says the C-Zero can do 0-62mph in 15 seconds, accelerate from
37-56mph (50-70km/h) in six seconds and hit a maximum of 80mph. It also has a range
of 80 miles.
Standard features include power steering, ABS, traction control, ESP, electric windows, six airbags and air conditioning. Sales of the C-ZERO start at the end of 2010 and although no prices have been confirmed expect to pay around Ò£10,000 for the zero emission machine.
