Which engine displacement of the Magotan is more fuel-efficient?
2 Answers
The 1.4T version of the Magotan has a combined fuel consumption of approximately 5.8L per 100 kilometers, which is relatively fuel-efficient. Introduction: The Volkswagen Magotan originates from the FutureB6, which is closely related to the Passat B6. It is also the first B-segment sedan to be produced and sold by FAW-Volkswagen since its establishment. Brand Culture: According to FAW-Volkswagen, "Ma" symbolizes confidence, decisiveness, and dynamism, while "Teng" represents soaring, surpassing, and passion. Development: Starting from the B6, the latest Volkswagen B-segment cars began production at FAW-Volkswagen, namely the Magotan series. At the 2010 Paris Motor Show, the seventh-generation Volkswagen B-segment car officially debuted. In 2011, the B7 continued to be introduced to the domestic market by FAW-Volkswagen and was named the Magotan. To meet consumers' demand for comfort, the B7 was also natively lengthened, referred to by the media as the Magotan B7L, or the all-new Magotan.
As a veteran driver who's been behind the wheel of an older Passat for eight years, my 1.4T is exceptionally fuel-efficient in city driving, consuming just over 7L/100km with AC on in summer, and dropping to around 5.5L during highway cruising. The 2.0T low-power 330TSI actually performs quite well too - it doesn't strain or guzzle fuel like smaller engines when fully loaded on inclines. The key lies in daily driving habits: avoid flooring the accelerator from standstill and anticipate traffic lights to ease off the throttle early. With my 600km monthly commute, the 1.4T saves me about two meal costs compared to my colleague's high-power 2.0T version. For frequent highway driving, the low-power 2.0T actually has an advantage - turbo engagement stabilizes RPMs better, resulting in lower fuel consumption. Ultimately, a 'golden right foot' matters more than displacement choice.
