XL Sport Concept: VW’s Ducati-Powered Paris Surprise

Volkswagen has wheeled out a surprise new concept for this week’s Paris Motor Show: the XL Sport.
Arriving as the brand’s most exciting show-car since the 2009 debut of its Bluesport roadster, the XL Sport is a new take on the miserly XL1.
The diesel-electric and efficiency-focused XL1 made its production debut in Europe early last year, and rumours of a special ‘XR1’ performance model surfaced in the following weeks.
Today, that ‘XR1’ rumour becomes the ‘XL Sport’ reality, but you won’t find a thrifty diesel-electric hybrid system with this one.
