Get acquainted with the ART3on, a project of trainees of Volkswagen Australia. That car is not only colorful, but also beresterk.

A team of five trainees with the Australian branch of Volkswagen is active, has a very special Arteon presented: the ART3on. The Arteon is violently tackled, so that the car can do at the World Time Attack Challenge, which will be available soon in Australia is held.

The ART3on, in the base a yellow Arteon with R-Line package that is a typical artcar livery', has a 490 hp and 600 Nm strong 2.0 TSI under the hood. The ability to find via a DSG transmission its way to all four wheels. The car is able to 3,9 count to a speed of 100 km/h sprint. Please note, however, that is uphill. More figures about the performance of the car Volkswagen not yet separated.

The ART3on has more of a 'stage 3'turbo from RacingLine on his 2.0 TSI sitting. The intercooler is adjusted, the fuel pump is replaced by a more powerful instance, the exhaust system is replaced with a copy of the Milltek and the car stands on a set of tougher springs Billstein. Custom brakes, a roll cage, and Pirelli P-Zero Trofeo semi-slicks: it's all there, on, or under. Production plans are there, of course not.

It is not the first time that Volkswagen Australia a particular project presents. Last year showed the company the Korama, a bizarre one-off on the basis of the Amarok.
