Volkswagen has released a pair of sketches that give us our first official glimpse at the company’s new concept car, set to debut at the Geneva Motor Show next week. Details are slim – the car doesn’t even have a name yet – but we do have some facts about VW’s swoopy new showcar.

First off, it’s a sedan – well, “four-door coupe” – but is said to have a hatchback configuration. Autoblog has also learned that the car will be powered by a hybrid powertrain, using a TSI gasoline engine paired with two electric motors, and uses an all-wheel-drive configuration that’s likely similar to that in the recently unveiled Cross Coupe GTE concept.

Volkswagen says this showcar uses a new, progressive design language for the brand. And while it sort of looks like a dead ringer for a new CC, we’re told this concept is positioned above that model.

For now, that’s all we know, but we expect a host of other details to be released closer to the car’s official debut in Geneva next week. Stay tuned.
