Volkswagen is bringing to market a new version of its 1.
4 TSI engine and a 7-speed DSG gearbox.
The new 4-cylinder gasoline engine is going to be called 1.
4 TSI despite not being a twin-charger engine: in the 122 ps power-step it’s going to have only a turbo-charger (losing the supercharger).
Torque is going to be a healthy 200 Nm.
This engine is probably going to be used on most of the low-to-mid end of the Volkswagen model range.
The second novelty is a new version of the DSG gearbox (double clutch robotized transmission).
This new gearbox will have seven speeds, can be coupled with engines with torque up to 250 Nm and the double clutch will no longer be immersed in oil as in the current DSG and, according to VW, it’s going to be particularly good for fuel economy: a Golf with the new 1.
4 TSI and the new 7-speed DSG will have an average fuel consumption of 5.
9 liters/100 km.
