Volkswagen added 2.0-L TSI option for Tiguan, Tayron and Passat

Leave a comment

Volkswagen has expanded its 4MOTION lineup with two versions of the 2.0-liter TSI engine. These engines will be available in the Tiguan, Tayron and Passat.

The 4MOTION system uses a multi-plate clutch to connect the rear axle. In city driving on dry roads, power is only transmitted to the front wheels, which saves fuel. The rear axle is engaged when the load increases or power is lost. The driver can also engage all-wheel drive manually if necessary.

The 2.0-liter TSI engine delivers 204 hp (152 kW) and 236 lb-ft (320 Nm) of torque, or 265 hp (197 kW) and 295 lb-ft (400 Nm) of torque (available only with the R-Line). The Passat is only available with the 265 hp option.

Volkswagen has also added a new Trailer Mode, which is activated automatically, allowing the Tiguan and Passat to tow up to 2,200 kilograms, while the Tayron has increased its towing capacity to 2,500 kilograms.

When it comes to price, buyers who opt for the Tiguan with a TSI engine and 4MOTION all-wheel drive will pay 48,200 euros, while this option for the Tayron costs 50,800 euros. Those who opt for the Passat with a TSI engine and 4MOTION will pay 62,990 euros.
