Can Volkswagen's TSI Evo2 Engine Be A Future Category A COE Competitor?
Volkswagen has enhanced its bestselling 1.5 TSI petrol engine and is now introducing the latest generation, the TSI evo2, in the first models in Europe. This engine makes it possible to reduce both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. The compact, ultra- modern four-cylinder engine will initially be available with an output of 110 kW (150 PS).
Further variants of the 1.5 TSI evo2 will follow, and we hope detuned versions of this motor are able to slot within Singapore’s Cat A COE band (currently reserved for those 1,600cc and below with horsepower not exceeding 130bhp). In Europe, the T-Roc and T-Roc Cabriolet will be the first models to be delivered with the new engine. The TSI evo2 will also be introduced successively in other models by the end of the year.
In the latest stage of the 1.5 TSI, development engineers have moved the three-way catalytic converter and petrol particulate filter close to the engine in a single emission control module, thereby further improving the efficiency of the emission control system. As a further contribution to sustainability, this permits reduced use of precious metals in production and at the same time creates the basis for compliance with future emission standards.
