Hi All, I'm looking at the e-Hybrid 1.5 Formentor with particular interest in using the electric only mode for the school runs and local driving. There is a choice of the 204 or 272 versions, but I'm really struggling to find any details on where the difference in power comes from. does the extra power of the 272 come from a more powerful electric motor, or a more powerful 1.5 liter engine, or is it a bit of both? Can anyone point me in the direction of this info please. I have it in my head that the 204 has a 100PS electric motor and 150PS engine which combine to give over all max output of 204PS, but I cant remember where I found this info, or the equivalent info for the 272.
1.5 e-Hybrid 204 and 272, different motor or engine, (or both)?
- Thread starter Hairy
- Start date
I had the same question, found some resources on the web (I ordered the 272 variant)
Asked the question on chat gpt, great reply with sources:
Also from official VW:
1.5 TSI evo2. In the entry-level eHybrid version, the 1.5 TSI evo2 engine produces 110 kW (150 PS) and, together with the electric drive motor’s peak output of 85 kW (115 PS), enables a system power of 150 kW (204 PS). Optionally, the flagship version of the engine is available with 130 kW (177 PS), which together with the electric drive motor generates a system power of 200 kW (272 PS). The 150 kW version develops a system torque of 350 Nm, while the 200 kW version offers 400 Nm of torque. The 1.5 TSI evo2 is characterised by a number of high-tech features. These include the TSI-evo combustion process (based on the Miller cycle) and a variable turbine geometry (VTG) turbocharger. The combination of TSI Miller cycle and VTG turbocharger is a unique technical feature in the area of hybrid drives.
