REVISED V6 TDI FOR VOLKSWAGEN’S PHAETON
Posted 9th May, 2008 in Volkswagen | Leave a comment
The Phaeton range is set to benefit from the introduction of a revised 3.0L V6 TDI common rail diesel engine which promises to deliver greater refinement and a useful boost in power while returning higher fuel economy and emitting less CO2. The Euro 5 compliant engine also features a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) in the exhaust system.
The new common rail engine draws on the virtues of the outgoing unit yet raises the power output by 15 PS to a total of 240 PS and the available torque from 369 lbs ft to 406 lbs ft. The result is a new top speed of 237km/h (147mph).
