Volkswagen announces new 268-hp TDI diesel, 10-speed DSG

Filed under: Technology, Volkswagen


We won't even ask how much torque it'll produce, but we could easily see the number cresting 450 lb-ft.

From dual-clutch transmissions to W-shaped engine blocks, the Volkswagen Group has certainly contributed more than its fair share of powertrain innovations to the automotive world. The German industrial giant isn't about to quit while it's ahead - instead, it's just announced a slew of new technologies at its 2014 Innovation Workshop. The list of new developments is long, but some of the most noteworthy advances include a new high-performance diesel engine and a ten-speed(!) dual-clutch gearbox.

Those familiar with the VW Touareg V10 TDI and Audi Q7 V12 TDI will know that the Volkswagen Group has put out some seriously powerful diesel engines in the past. The former kicked out 309 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque, after all, and the latter an even more impressive 493 hp and 738 lb-ft - more than enough to pull a jumbo jet, in other words, but they required larger displacements and many cylinders to get there.

That's what makes the new engine so impressive. For its latest European-market Passat, VW introduced a 2.0-liter twin-turbo diesel four kicking out 236 horsepower to give it the highest specific output of any four-cylinder diesel on the market. But now VW is saying it can get even more out of that engine - as much as 268 horsepower, to be precise. We won't even ask how much torque it'll produce, but we could easily see the number cresting 450 lb-ft. That'd put it ahead of the 3.0-liter V6 TDI offered in many Audi models, albeit with two fewer cylinders.

Another noteworthy innovation is the introduction of a new ten-speed dual-clutch gearbox. VW introduced the world's first production DSG in its German-market Golf R32 back in 2003 and soon rolled out the tech worldwide on the Audi TT. It's since offered both six- and seven-speed variants, but with other manufacturers rolling out conventional torque-converter automatics with many more speeds, VW's getting back ahead of the curve with this new ten-speed unit. There's no word yet on when we can expect to see it put into production, but the German automaker says it's been developed to handle up to 405 lb-ft of torque.

Other new technologies announced include a smarter stop/start system that turns off the engine while rolling to a stop, motorsport-derived lightweight sandwich body panel construction and a smarter navigation system that learns your driving habits. Delve into the full details in the press release below.Continue reading Volkswagen announces new 268-hp TDI diesel, 10-speed DSG
