The two-door Golf-based coupe has a dream for VW fans for more than a year but there is still no chance of it happening.
"We would love to have it here, but it isn't on our plan. In the short term, at least," Gehling says.
The problems for the Scirocco are its price, the likelihood of small sales and a potential clash with the Golf GTi. Volkswagen also believes there is no point to a limited-edition R-Line Scirocco if it is not selling the regular car.
"The R Line is very much the halo of each model line, and you expect that to have a flow-on effect. But if you don't have the whole range there is not a huge amount of point to doing it," Gehling says.
"We may review it again in the future, but at the moment there is no plan."
