Performance Characteristics
This hybrid is engineered to deliver more power without compromising the responsive character that makes the 1.2 TSI so enjoyable.
What you can expect:
- Very fast spool response – positive boost from low RPM
- High peak torque achieved at low engine speeds
- Strong, linear power delivery from 2,000 RPM upward
- Sustained boost through the mid-range
- Improved top-end holding compared to stock
- Effortless motorway cruising and overtaking
- Transforms the car from economical to genuinely engaging
The clipped and lightened turbine reduces inertia, meaning throttle response remains sharp despite the significantly higher power output.
