What does the TSI at the back of the Volkswagen Passat mean?
1 Answers
Volkswagen Passat's TSI stands for a turbocharged FSI engine, abbreviated as "TSI", which is a type of engine characterized by high power, low speed, and high torque. Generally, domestically produced Volkswagen models are referred to in this way. The international version of "TSI" also has the explanation of a twin-charged engine, where the "T" represents Twin, meaning twin-charging. When all three letters "TSI" are in red, it indicates a 2.0T turbo + direct injection engine; when only "SI" is in red, it represents a 1.8T turbo + direct injection engine; and when only "I" is in red, it signifies a 1.4T turbo + direct injection engine. The "TSI" engine is a leader among 4-cylinder engines, equipped with the most advanced technology in the Volkswagen engine family.
