Vauxhall is showcasing the 2015 VXR8 GTS that is currently for sale in United Kingdom. You can place an order if you are willing to pay at least the £54,509 OTR and in return you’ll basically get a rebadged variant of the HSV GTS sold in Australia. The high-performance sedan rides on 20-inch forged alloy wheels wrapped around in Continental ContiSport Contact 5P tires and benefits from LED daytime running lights while inside the cabin it features sport seats wrapped in black leather along with a flat-bottomed steering wheel and suede accents. Other goodies on the menu include the dual-zone automatic climate control system, Bose sound system, head-up display, alloy pedals, heated front seats and an 8-inch display for the infotainment system.
The 2015 VXR8 GTS is powered by an LSA V8 6.2-liter supercharged gasoline engine capable of outputting a massive 576 bhp and 545 lb-ft of torque. The engine sends its power to the rear wheels with help from either a standard 6-speed manual gearbox or an optional 6-speed automatic transmission.
Regardless of gearbox choice, the 2015 VXR8 GTS will need just 4.2 seconds to cover the sprint from 0 to 60 mph (96 km/h) on its way to an electronically-capped top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h).
