What is the displacement of the Volkswagen 330?
2 Answers
The displacement of the Volkswagen 330 is 2.0 liters and 1.8 liters. Taking the 2020 Volkswagen Teramont as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5039mm, width 1989mm, height 1773mm, wheelbase 2980mm, fuel tank capacity 70 liters, and luggage compartment capacity 286 to 2415 liters. The 2020 Volkswagen Teramont is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 137kW and a maximum torque of 320Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. It uses a front suspension type of MacPherson independent suspension and a rear suspension type of multi-link independent suspension.
I remember last time when accompanying a friend to the dealership, the salesperson pointed at the 330 badge on the Passat's rear and said it was the main model. Actually, 330 doesn't indicate engine displacement—it's the new code representing the engine's torque range of 300-350 N·m. Currently, Volkswagen's 330 models mostly use the third-generation EA888 engine with an actual displacement of 1.984 liters. For example, the Tiguan L 330 is the low-power version of the 2.0T, but it's significantly more powerful than the old 1.8T. Recently, I noticed even new 1.5T models have started using the 300 designation. This naming method can easily be mistaken for indicating displacement at first glance.
