Vauxhall creates Britain's fastest hatchback with awesome 255PS Vectra VXR New 2.8-litre V6 turbo powers family favourite to a supercar-rivalling 161mph On sale in November, priced at under £25,000. The Frankfurt motor show is sure to be packed full of exotic performance machinery, but no other hatchback will be able to offer the performance of the new Vectra VXR. The new model, which makes its debut at the German show on 12th September, has a top speed of 161mph - faster than many other super-saloons which cost twice the price.
Using an all-new 2.8-litre V6 turbo producing a massive 280PS and 320Nm of torque (236lb ft), Vauxhall's engineers have created the most powerful car in the class - and created a suitably dynamic big brother for the red-hot Astra VXR. With variable valve timing and a twin-scroll turbocharger, the V6 is supremely flexible too, taking the car from zero to 60mph in 6.6 seconds, and dispatching the 50-70mph sprint (in fifth gear) in just 7.6 seconds. A six-speed manual transmission is fitted as standard. |
