The Volkswagen TSI engine might currently be the most awarded
engine in the world. However, its forte is delivering maximum power and
driving pleasure with minimum fuel consumption. The accolades won
though, aren’t just for the class-leading power and torque figures, but
for the manner in which they are delivered. This means you have a sporty
car that you can enjoy your everyday commute in, even in the most dreary
Indian road conditions. |

6-speed manual Transmission
The Passat 1.8 TSI is one of the first cars in the segment to be
equipped with a slick-shifting 6-speed Manual Transmission. This gearbox
offers 2 overdrive ratios on the 5th and 6th gears, to achieve higher
fuel-efficiency and lower emissions. So when you hit a long open
highway, you’ll discover how a fuel-efficient drive can also make for an
exciting driving experience. |
