To my mind, the main benefit of the 2wd 1.4 tsi becoming available is that will combine the opportunity of more power with a relatively affordable price, especially if made available in E and S spec.

Currently there's a big leap in price of £3300 from 1.2 to 1.8 within the same spec range, £1700 of which is for non-optional 4wd. You also have to opt for at least SE trim to access the more powerful engines, a £1400 premium over the rather well specced S

With a bit of luck the 1.4tsi will be priced c.£500 - £700 more than the equivalent 1.2.

hi All,

I just received my freshhh 1.4 tsi Ambition yesterday. It's rather fast but without much thrills when accelerating. It just smoothly reaches its speed Of course I'm not pushing it yet due to the "run in". I just love the way it handles and corners. You would never expect this when looking at the beast!

Consumption during last 56 km was ca. 8.4 l/100km. All in the city, some traffic. I love it!

Hi,

I am expecting my Yeti 1.4 in the next 10 days and feel very anxious about it's acceleration.

I made a test drive of course, but only the 1.2tsi engine because they don't have it here for testing. I loved the car, but I am expecting more power from the 1.4 and hope that you can give me some feedback as you have it 3 months now...

Thanks!
