Some Difference between Golf MK7 1200cc and 1400cc

Industrialisation has brought positive things into our lives; we can move from one continent to another in a very short time thanks to aeroplanes and ships. Communication has become very easy and the world is now described as a global village.

However, technology and industrialisation has brought negative effects to the environment. Pollution brought about by emission of Carbon dioxide has contributed to depletion of O zone layer. Scientists and other players in environment are working round the clock to reduce industrial emission of Carbon Dioxide and car manufacture industry is the most affected area as car contribute alot as far as carbon dioxide emission is concern. The world is focusing on reversing the damage caused by carbon dioxide emmissions hence the new technology being employed but car manufacturers that include use of electric cars, hybrid cars and cars with small engines but which employs the use of turbo engines. that more damage to environment is

All Volkswagen cars have reduced their fuel capacity in their engines. For instance FSI engines used 1600cc while Tsi use 1400cc and recently 1200cc bluemotion. Tsi employ use of turbo which ensures the users get enough power while using less fuel on the roads. Turbo employs technology where gas are returned and compressed to be used to turn the turbines which in turn suck in more air to be used for combustion hence the high revs with small acceleration.

A number of users may claim that a 1200cc engine is weaker than 1400c when in true sense the difference is very negligible. Let us look at the following features in comparing the two cars.

Torque

A 1200cc gives the user a torque of 175nm (Newton Metres) while a 1400cc comes with a torque of 200Nm both at 1400-4000rpm.

Horse power

A 1200 cc comes with a 110 HP while 1400cc comes with 150Hp meaning a 1400cc has more power compared to a 1200cc.

A 1200cc does 0-100km/hr in 9.9 seconds while 1400cc does 0-100km/hr in 8.2 seconds.

Fuel economy

1200cc does 4.9Litres/100kms while 1400cc does 5.2 Litres/100kms. 1400cc on the other hand does 19.23kms/Litre while 1200cc does 23.3Kms/Litre.
