Volkswagen Magotan B1

1973 – 1981

The Volkswagen Scirocco is a sport compact hatchback produced in two generations from 1974 to 1992 and then revived for a third generation from 2008 to 2017, ceasing production without a successor. Derived from the Mediterranean wind, the Scirocco was designed as a replacement for the Karmann Ghia coupe in the early 1970s. It shared the Golf platform but featured a redesigned body by Giorgetto Giugiaro for a more stylish and sporty appearance compared to the Golf.
