2019 new Sagitar is equipped with two engines: 1.4T and 2.0T. The 2.0T version is divided into high-power and low-power models. The 1.4T engine has a maximum output power of 110 kW, a maximum torque of 250 Nm, and a top speed of 218 km/h. The low-power 2.0T engine has a maximum output power of 137 kW, a maximum torque of 320 Nm, a top speed of 230 km/h, and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 7.5 seconds. The high-power 2.0T engine has a maximum output power of 162 kW, a maximum torque of 350 Nm, and a top speed of 230 km/h. The 2019 Sagitar has a body size of 4655mm in length, 1780mm in width, 1453mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2651mm.
The 2019 Sagitar's engine is quite classic, and I often see discussions about it on forums. It comes standard with Volkswagen's 1.2 TSI and 1.4 TSI petrol engines, both turbocharged. The 1.2-liter version is more suitable for daily commuting, with an output of 85 kW, offering smooth and fuel-efficient performance—just over 5 liters in combined fuel consumption, and no stuttering even in city traffic jams. The 1.4-liter version is more powerful, delivering 110 kW of horsepower for a more exhilarating acceleration, making highway overtaking effortless and smooth. Many fans consider this the soul of the Sagitar. TSI technology is Volkswagen's signature, having been used for years with good reliability. Occasionally, there might be some turbo lag, but it's not a big issue—just replacing the air filter usually solves it. I think this engine design is highly practical, with low maintenance costs, making it ideal for family cars.
After driving for over a year, my 2019 New Sagitar is the 1.4 TSI version, and the actual experience has been truly worry-free. The engine noise is minimal, it starts quickly, and the throttle response is instant and sensitive. The power is sufficient for daily commuting, with no sluggishness when starting at traffic lights. With 110 kilowatts of power, it handles uphill sections without difficulty. I'm very satisfied with the fuel consumption; it's only about 6 liters on the highway and can drop to 5 liters in suburban areas, making it more economical compared to cars in the same class. The engine uses MQB platform technology, which is highly durable. After driving tens of thousands of kilometers, it hasn't had any issues, and maintenance is simple—just an oil change. If you're considering buying a used New Sagitar, I recommend checking if the turbo system is functioning properly, as this can affect long-term performance. Overall, it's quite suitable for those seeking cost-effectiveness.
