What is the displacement of the Volkswagen Sagitar 200?
2 Answers
The Sagitar 200TSI model is equipped with a 1.2-liter turbocharged engine, so the displacement of this car is 1.2 liters. Displacement Introduction: Displacement (Swept-volume), a specialized term in hydraulic transmission, refers to the volume of fluid inhaled or discharged per stroke or cycle. Generally, a larger displacement means the engine releases more energy (converting chemical energy from fuel into mechanical energy) per unit time, resulting in better "power performance." It's like comparing a teenage boy to a healthy adult—the adult is naturally more efficient at physical labor. Therefore, off-road vehicles and sports cars usually have relatively larger displacements. Cylinder Displacement: The working volume through which the piston moves from top dead center to bottom dead center is called the cylinder displacement. If the engine has multiple cylinders, the sum of the working volumes of all cylinders is called the engine displacement, usually expressed in liters (L). Engine displacement is one of the most important structural parameters, as it represents the size of the engine more accurately than bore diameter and the number of cylinders. Many engine performance indicators are closely related to displacement.
I've driven the Volkswagen Sagitar 200 several times. It has a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, using the Volkswagen EA211 engine, which is very common in compact cars. The driving experience feels smooth in terms of power output, with brisk acceleration for city commuting and no difficulty on highways, delivering around 150 horsepower. It performs well in fuel consumption, averaging about 7 liters per 100 kilometers in the city and just over 5 liters on highways, making it very economical. Maintenance is also hassle-free, requiring only regular oil changes and air filter replacements. Compared to the Sagitar 1.4T version, this 1.5-liter model is more fuel-efficient and offers better handling, making it suitable for daily commuting. In summary, as a family car or for office workers, it has a moderate displacement, strong practicality, and won't be too hard on the wallet.
