I know the engine of Jetta VA3 very well. It uses a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine from Volkswagen's EA211 series, commonly paired with manual or automatic transmission options. The power output is approximately 82 kW or 110 horsepower, with a peak torque of 145 N·m. While the power isn't particularly high, it's sufficient for daily use—stable acceleration in the city without being too aggressive, and safe overtaking on highways. The fuel consumption is quite friendly, averaging around 6-7L/100km, and it runs on 92-octane gasoline, making it economical and practical. Maintenance is straightforward, with low-cost oil and filter changes every 10,000 km and minimal faults. The engine runs smoothly with minimal noise, and the transmission shifts seamlessly. In terms of driving experience, it's ideal for commuting—economical and practical. This engine has been used for many years with high reliability, and the newer version has been upgraded to meet the China VI emission standards for better environmental performance. For long-term use, regular checks on the cooling system are recommended to prevent overheating and extend its lifespan.
