Compression ratio 18.5:1, 195Nm of torque from 1800-2200 RPM - all the information online is incorrect.
Why is it wrong? VW actually says exactly this - even on the internet. |
"@Dieselmartin - the "wrong" information referred to the compression ratio. According to the VW website, it's 19.5:1, but the actual value is 18.5:1. I just wanted to reiterate the torque figure because there seemed to be some confusion about that as well. I probably phrased things poorly."

I doubt that it will remain an "Extrawurst," as that would be far too expensive.
I expect that this engine will be available in the next Polo.
That makes sense.

@ Jochen_145 - I wouldn't be so sure about that, because first of all, they wouldn't have a Polo anymore that they could label as "BlueMotion," since 80% of the fuel efficiency comes from the engine. Secondly, it would be too expensive and unprofitable to equip all TDI Polos with a VTG turbocharger - it will remain a special feature.

According to theory (or at least, according to VW's consumption diagram), the Lupo 3l should consume less than 6 liters per 100km at 160km/h. However, I haven't tested that myself. It couldn't quite reach 170km/h.

@ Jochen_145 - that's exactly why I specifically mentioned the consumption at 170 km/h, because I didn't want to compare it to the 3L Lupo - it's a completely different concept with a different target audience.

@ Jan6K - Sonnenbrille abnehmen und meinen vorigen Beitrag lesen.

Ja, der BlueMotion hat den hochgesetzten, um 180° gedrehten VTG-ATL von BBGW mit pneu. Control.
zum Thema warum 3-Zyl. TDI:
In my opinion, the claims about efficiency and individual cylinder chambers are a bit of a stretch.
There are 3 reasons. Cost, cost, cost.
The combustion process can be directly adopted from the 1.9L 4-cylinder TDI engine, as can almost all auxiliary components. The 3-cylinder engine is essentially a shortened version of a 4-cylinder. This is an example of a modular design system. See also the AUDI V6/V8/V12 TDI engines.
