Engines and gearboxes
Select the DSG dual-clutch gearbox and you’ll enjoy gear changes faster than a manual, yet so smooth they’re
virtually imperceptible, giving maximum driving enjoyment whatever the conditions. Not only is the DSG gearbox
extremely dynamic, its level of efficiency is, in some cases, even better than its manual counterparts.
The six speed manual gearbox
transmits power with short, accurate
shifts and very smooth handling,
making it easy to drive at the right
engine speed.
The DSG dual-clutch gearbox shifts smoothly and imperceptibly into the
pre-selected next gear, within a split second, into the pre-selected next gear,
without disrupting the power. Such extremely short reaction times and direct
response behaviour make sporty acceleration even more fun. The DSG
gearbox is not only highly dynamic, but also extremely fuel-effi cient.
The TDI diesel engines with common
rail technology are fitted with a Diesel
Particulate Filter (DPF) which filters
out exhaust elements that are harmful
to the environment, significantly
reducing diesel emissions as a result.
The 1.6 litre TDI 105 PS provides a perfect blend of performance
and economy. This common rail engine is capable of achieving
62.8 mpg on the Combined fuel cycle* while producing only 119 g/km
of CO2. When this engine is utilised with BlueMotion Technology on
the Match, the figures are even more impressive with only 107 g/km
of CO2 and 68.9 mpg achieved on the Combined fuel cycle*. Finally,
when specified in the Golf BlueMotion, the already impressive
CO2 figures are further reduced to 99 g/km, while fuel consumption
is an incredible 74.3 mpg on the Combined fuel cycle*.
A combination of direct injection,
downsizing and intelligent loading
technology lets petrol engines with TSI
Technology work particularly effectively.
They combine Advantages like high
achievement, excellent torque and low
consumption. The 2.0 litre TSI 270 PS
is a perfect example of this technology
and power.
The optional Adaptive Chassis Control (ACC) adapts the damping control and shock absorption rate to the road
conditions and driving style you require within milliseconds. At the touch of a button, you decide how fi rm or
comfortable you wish to set the suspension, with a choice of three settings: Sport, Comfort or Normal. In Normal mode,
the principal advantage of the system is that the dampers are constantly adjusted to the road and the driving conditions.
In Sport mode, the dampers are considerably stiffer and the steering becomes more responsive. A direct contrast is
Comfort mode where the suspension is adjusted to maximise passenger comfort, particularly when travelling on poor
road surfaces or long motorway journeys. Optional on all models except S, BlueMotion, Match BlueMotion Technology
and GT BlueMotion Technology.
