1.4 TSI PHEV vs 1.5TSI PHEV

[Clodius]

Hi All!

Anyone can shed some light on the differences between the 1.4 and 1.5 TSI hybrids engines? I currently have the 1.4TSI petrol (no issues and very happy with it) and considering getting a hybrid Superb or Octavia (2021 onwards) but a bit confused about the differences. I hear that the distribution for the 1.5 is pretty laborious and expensive and that the mileage is better for the 1.4.

 

Would also appreciate a bit of advice on Superb vs Octavia. I've had 2 Octavias in the past (MK1 and MK2) and although you get probably more optionals in a Superb I can't help but feel like it's a bit too big for me. Two points definitely in favour of Superb in my book are the analog climate controls and the traditional gear stick.

 

Thanks
