2022 Taos Powertrain
2022 Taos Powertrain
The 2022 Taos Powertrain is a vehicle that has the ability to provide you with an excellent fuel economy and spirited performance. It’s sure to be a hit at Keffer VW.
With only 158 horsepower, it can still pack quite a punch when needed.
Also with 184 pound-feet of torque, the Taos will meet your performance needs while still being able to get excellent gas mileage. This engine has been designed with today's technology even though it has a larger displacement than some other vehicles in its class to provide the perfect balance of power and efficiency.
The engine is more efficient because of Volkswagen’s 4Motion all-wheel-drive system which combined with engine dynamics to benefit fuel efficiency.
Some key aspects of the Taos Powertrain achieve a combination of low-speed torque and excellent fuel economy include:
- APS coated cylinder liners—iron powder is plasma coated onto the cylinder block, which reduces friction.
- A map-controlled cooling module warming the engine more quickly than the existing EA211 for efficiency and control of water flow in different parts of the engine.
- Variable Turbine Geometry. This is one of the first volume-production turbochargers with this technology in the North American Region. This turbo is more efficient, provides higher boost pressure, and avoids wastegate mass flow.
- A high-pressure injection system with up to 350 bar—up from 200 bar—which produces better atomization of the fuel/air mixture, a shorter injection time, optimized mixture formation, and lower particulate emissions.
