Local News: Touran Sport and Jetta 1.6 get seven gears
Volkswagen Centre Singapore has launched the 2010 model year Jetta 1.6 and Touran Sport. Both cars now come with a 7-speed DSG as standard. This highly efficient dual-clutch transmission is now fitted to 10 Volkswagen models sold in Singapore.
Compared to its predecessor with a 6-speed automatic gearbox, the new
Jetta 1.6 DSG is 17 percent more economical overall. Its fuel
consumption figure is now 6.8 L/100km in the combined driving cycle,
with CO2 emissions of 159 g/km, down from 195 g/km. Performance has been improved at the same time. The car’s top speed is 3km/h higher at 186km/h, while the 0-100km/h time falls from 13.3 to 12.2 seconds.
Like the Jetta 1.4 TSI and Jetta Sport 1.4 TSI, the 2010 Jetta 1.6 gets a host of interior upgrades. These include a new steering wheel, a revised instrument layout with white backlighting and a climate control system with two-level automatic control.
The 170bhp Touran Sport 1.4 TSI, previously fitted with a 6-speed DSG,
also benefits from the new 7-speed DSG transmission. Its combined fuel
consumption falls by 0.7 L/100km to 6.9 L/100km, with CO2 emissions
correspondingly reduced from 181 g/km to 159 g/km.
Both the 2010 Jetta 1.6 and Touran Sport 1.4 TSI are available to order immediately. The recommended retail prices (with COE) are $79,800 and $103,300, respectively.
