"The new engine develops 168bhp at 6000rpm and 177lb ft of torque from 1750rpm to 4500rpm, 20bhp and 30lb ft more than the naturally aspirated 2.0-litre FSI unit. "

so..... with a Turbo..... AND.... a supercharger.... The brillian german engineers managed to pull a whopping 20hp more than the non added version....

is this a joke?

BMW has had M engines with over 100HP per liter for a few years now and I am familiar with what has to go into an engine like that. Its amazing really.

its still a 4cyl Vdub lol.

That's the only good thing about that car. Looks like crap, has no power (I don't car about the 120 HP per liter, it still has no power lol), and is a VW. I figure it would be a good daily driver for a family person, but there is no way in hell I would buy one.

VW didnt design it for performance, it was designed to get descent power for a compact car and great mileage. Imo a 1.4L motor getting 170hp and 40mpg is impressive no matter what kind of blower is used.
