The Volkswagen Touran is turbocharged. Turbocharging is a technology that uses the exhaust gas generated by internal combustion engine operation to drive an air compressor. The Volkswagen Touran is an MPV. Taking the Touran 2021 280TSI DSG Fashion Edition 7-seater as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4527 mm, width 1829 mm, height 1659 mm, wheelbase 2791 mm, and fuel tank capacity 60 liters. The Touran 2021 280TSI DSG Fashion Edition 7-seater is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 110 kW and a maximum power speed of 5000 rpm, matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I'm currently driving a Volkswagen Touran, which indeed comes with a turbocharged engine. Before purchasing, I did quite a bit of research. Turbocharging compresses air to make fuel combustion more efficient, delivering stronger power output, especially noticeable during acceleration or uphill driving. Compared to naturally aspirated engines, it's also slightly more fuel-efficient, with my car averaging around 8 liters per 100 km. However, it's worth noting that turbocharged systems can be a bit more delicate. For instance, after long-distance driving, don't rush to turn off the engine immediately—let it idle for a few minutes to cool down. Regular maintenance checks on turbo components can extend their lifespan. The ride is smooth, and the spacious cabin is perfect for family trips. Overall, I think this car offers great value for money, striking a good balance between power and fuel efficiency.
