CAR GARAGE | 2013 Volkswagen Polo BlueGT | The system was released with the new 1.4-litre TSI of the VW Polo BlueGT. The torque-strong TSI develops a power output of 103 kW / 140 PS, yet has a combined fuel consumption of just 4.7 l / 100 km / h (equivalent to 108 g / km CO2) If the Polo BlueGT is ordered with the optional 7-speed dual clutch gearbox (DSG), fuel consumption drops further to 4.5 l/100 km.
The new Volkswagen Polo BlueGT stands out in its ability to combine superior dynamic performance with extreme fuel-efficiency The technical highlight of the progressive compact car is the cylinder deactivation system, which is being introduced for the first time in a Volkswagen - also known as active cylinder management or ACT.
GTI features are the rear spoiler, rear bumper with diffuser, front bumper and fog lights including daytime running lights. The Volkswagen Polo BlueGT is also upgraded by a black painted radiator grille, R-line ventilation screen in the bumper and black door mirrors. Having a positive effect on aerodynamics are the Polo's 15 mm lower ride height and special under body trim.
The 1.4 TSI in the Volkswagen Polo BlueGT is the top engine of the entirely new EA211 series of petrol engines. These petrol engines and the EA288 series diesel engines, which are also new, are technological pillars of the future Modular Transverse Matrix (MQB).
Even before the MQB is introduced, Volkswagen Polo BlueGT buyers will get to enjoy the new high-tech TSI with cylinder deactivation Volkswagen is the first car-maker to introduce active cylinder management as a fuel-saving technology in smaller engines.
