Does the 1. TSI have a turbo?
High-pressure turbo straight injection (tsi) for low emissions and efficient combustion. Recommended fuel: regular unleaded. Compact turbocharger designed for fast response, high torque at low engine speeds. Turbo stratified injection – tsi tsi engines are compact, high-powered and use less fuel. Tsi technology blends the best of our tdi diesel and fsi (fuel stratified direct injection) petrol engines to give you excellent driveability and outstanding fuel economy.The obvious difference between both engines is in their names. Whereas TSI is short for Turbo Stratified Injection, TFSI is short for Turbo Fuel Stratified Injection. What does fuel injection mean in the first place? The fuel injector is quite literally a valve in the engine that injects fuel into a vehicle.
Is TSI better than TDI?
Tsi engines are best if you want a smooth and quiet caddy or travel short distances due to having no dpf filter to clog up. tdi engines are best if you travel long distances and need maximum fuel economy (seeing over 50mpg isn’t uncommon for a tdi caddy). Tsi ist the faster and smoother one, at the expense of more fuel consumption. So it’s a matter of preference.
Are TSI and turbo the same?
TSI’ stands for Turbocharged Stratified Injection and is a type of turbocharged petrol engine that Volkswagen produces. All are four-cylinder turbocharged ‘TSI’ motors, although the 148bhp version has a trick up its sleeve: it uses VW’s clever active cylinder shutdown (ACT) management system which closes off a pair of cylinders under light loads to aid emissions and economy. That’s the version we have here.
