What engine is equipped in the all-new Lavida?

[StAngela]

The all-new Lavida is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, a 1.2T turbocharged engine, and a 1.4T turbocharged engine. Below are the specific details about the Volkswagen Lavida: 1. The Volkswagen Lavida is a compact car launched by SAIC Volkswagen, with body dimensions of 4605mm in length, 1765mm in width, and 1460mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2610mm. 2. In terms of appearance, the front face design of the Lavida is significantly different from previous Volkswagen A-class cars, especially its unique teardrop-shaped headlight design. The traditional Volkswagen family grille and U-shaped front face design are also inherited and enhanced in the Lavida.

I've studied the powertrain currently equipped in the Lavida. The new car mainly uses three types of engines: a 1.5L naturally aspirated, a 1.2T, and a 1.5T turbocharged. The 1.5L naturally aspirated version is sturdy and durable, with fuel consumption just over 6L per 100km in city commuting, making it particularly suitable for family use. The 1.2T small-displacement turbo offers brisk acceleration and effortless overtaking on highways. The 1.5T version is the most spirited, delivering strong push-back feel with over 160 horsepower. Volkswagen's EA211 engine features an all-aluminum cylinder block, which is more than 20kg lighter than the old model, with better heat dissipation and less prone to oil leaks. If you frequently drive on highways, the 1.5T is recommended, while the 1.5L naturally aspirated is worry-free enough for city commuting.

Last month, when I accompanied my buddy to pick up his Lavida, I specifically test-drove the 1.5T version. The maximum power of 118kW is indeed impressive, and the 250Nm torque delivers instant response when you step on the gas. The biggest surprise was the fuel consumption—only 5.8L on provincial highways. This powertrain paired with the 7-speed dual-clutch transmission is exceptionally smooth and much quieter than the old 1.4T. The salesperson mentioned that the engine uses VVT variable valve timing technology, which makes it particularly fuel-efficient at low RPMs while delivering strong power at high RPMs.

The new Lavida offers three engine options: the base version features a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine producing 113 horsepower paired with a 6AT transmission; the mid-level 1.2T turbocharged unit delivers 116 horsepower; while the top-tier 1.5T turbocharged variant reaches 160 horsepower. Recently drove the 1.5L version - perfectly adequate for city commuting and runs on regular 92-octane gasoline. However, the turbo models clearly have superior power reserves, especially during acceleration beyond 80 km/h. The 1.5T's thrust persists without fading even up to 140 km/h.

Test data speaks for itself: the 1.5L engine delivers a maximum power of 85kW with 175Nm torque; the 1.2T version offers 96kW power paired with 200Nm torque; the most powerful is the 1.5T, generating 118kW power at 5500rpm. All models feature direct fuel injection technology, improving fuel efficiency by 12% compared to previous versions. Recent forum discussions reveal that the 1.5T variant is the most popular among buyers, thanks to its 0-100km/h acceleration time of just over 8 seconds.

The Lavida's powertrain options are quite straightforward: choose the 1.5L+6AT for a limited budget, offering affordable maintenance and worry-free operation; the 1.2T+7-speed dual-clutch is the golden combination for those seeking both power and fuel efficiency; go straight for the 1.5T version if you're after driving pleasure. All engines meet the China VI-B emission standards and come with auto start-stop. It's worth noting that the turbocharged engines deliver maximum torque at just 1800 rpm, ensuring quick starts at traffic lights without any lag.
