Got to be honest, there is very little difference.. was expecting more of a change..

 

Its only a facelift, not a full new model. There was never going to be anything radical or new here.

As always the devil is in the detail.   The two Tsi engines are to get gasoline particulate filters.   Not arguing with this on environmental grounds but, assuming that gpfs are prone to the same issues as dpfs, those who do mainly town driving/short journeys need to look away.     Further expense for long term/high mileage drivers as all particulate filters eventually fill up with ash.

 

It seems to be accepted that direct injection petrol engines produce more particulates than port injected petrol engines.   That said, the tail-pipe of my 1.2 tsi 110 (Toledo) has always been relatively clean.    This is not the case for some other 1.2T direct injection engines - Renault/Nissan and Toyota, I'm looking at you (don't know about others).

From when the models on sale / Type Approved are only those which have the Real world testing you can expect Gasoline Particular Filters and other emission control devices fitted,

& the diesel Euro 6 & Petrol Euro 5 engines currently used to be dropped, so that is just the future.

 

1.2 & 1.4 TSI / TFSI's dropped for a reason, as with the 1.4TDI.

The 1.4 TSI / TFSI not ACT / COD that are still in vehicles currently on sale maybe worth the buying before just the 

1.5TSI EVO ACT is available.

Too many VW Group engines and Implausible / Irregular Co2 g/km tesat results, 

well those in VW, Audi & SEAT Models.

So they say sportier??

 

Maybe we are going to see a turbocharged 1.0 then in Monte Carlo trim.
