MORE POWER FOR VW CC

The engine line up of the sporty and elegant Volkswagen Comfort Coupe (CC) has been upgraded to offer improved performance, less CO2 emissions and better fuel consumption. 

The significant upgrade is on the 2.0 TDI which is now offered with BlueMotion Technology. The 2.0 TDI 125kW engine has the Start-Stop system with Energy recuperation. As a result, the new claimed combined fuel consumption is 5.5 litres per 100 kilometres –144 g/km of CO2 (6.1 l/100km – 159 g/km of CO2 in the previous engine).

The power output of the TSI engine has been increased to 155kW from 147kW. The new 2.0 TSI 155 kW engine is cleaner and frugal. 

It’s claimed combined fuel consumption is now 7.3 litres per 100 kilometres – 171 g/km of CO2 for the 6-speed manual transmission (0.6 litres less than previous engine – 186 g/km of CO2). For the 6-speed DSG transmission, the claimed combined fuel consumption is 7.8 l/100km – 182 g/km of CO2 (8.5 l/100km – 199 g/km of CO2).

With the 2.0 TSI 155kW (at 5300-6200 rpm) engine, the 0-100km sprint is 7.6 seconds for both manual and DSG transmissions. The top speed has improved to 240 km/h (Manual) and 238 km/h (DSG).  

The torque of the four-cylinder turbocharged engine is still 280Nm and is available from 1700 to 5200 rpm.

The 3.6 FSI V6 engine remains unchanged.

it seems all they did is just align the engine with the engines in the Golf 6.
