Check out the latest from Germany here...
If only they'd bring the new 170hp Diesel to the US... The old MK 4 170hp diesels reach 150mph on the Autobahn... The new GTi is rumored to have 240hp from the 2 liter 4 cylinder, up 10 hp from the current Euro GTi 30...l[/url]
Europe mk4 TDis were 90,100,110,115,130,150. stock there was not a 170 over here did you guys get one.
The 130 & 150 PD TDIs would chip to 180 or 200.
New Mk6 TDI uses VWs new common rail system rather than PD thats in the current TDI golfs. So its much smoother and quieter its a world apart from the old PD system after driving new audis with it in.
GTI is rumoured to have 11bhp over the current GTI not the ED30 version. The talk is its going to use a version of the engine in the audi A5 (211bhp) giving a low CO2 output of 154g/km much lower than the crrent GTIs 185->200g/km. The reason is tax in some europe contries.
Also a GTI-R version is rumoured using the new version of the engine in the current facelifted audi S3 giving 4wd and 265bhp this engine is slight different to last years S3 and ED30 units. With a lowish co2 of ~200g/km for it power and drivetrain.
