What engine is used in the Volkswagen T-Roc?
2 Answers
The engine of the Volkswagen T-Roc is produced by FAW-Volkswagen Engine (Dalian) Co., Ltd., and is a domestically manufactured engine. The engine model of the Volkswagen T-Roc is EA211-DLS. The 1.2T version engine has a maximum output power of 85 kW and a maximum torque of 175 Nm, while the 1.4T version engine has a maximum output power of 96 kW and a maximum torque of 225 Nm. For daily maintenance of the Volkswagen T-Roc's engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, the performance deteriorates, which can cause various problems for the engine. To avoid failures, the oil should be changed regularly according to usage conditions, and the oil level should be kept moderate. When oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged and the oil cannot pass through the filter element, the filter element may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve, bringing contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from component wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
The current main engine used in the Volkswagen T-Roc is the 1.5T EVO from the EA211 series, delivering 160 horsepower. This engine is quite intelligent, utilizing technologies like the Miller cycle and variable geometry turbocharger. I've driven a friend's car, and the fuel consumption is very friendly—around 7 liters per 100 km in city traffic jams, and it can even drop below 6 liters on the highway. The older 1.4T model can still be seen on the road, with 131 horsepower being sufficient for daily use, and maintenance is also cheaper. The EA211 series is particularly robust; I've seen examples that don't leak a drop of oil even after 100,000 kilometers. If you're buying a used car, you might want to pay special attention to versions with this engine.
