Summary

The Volkswagen V-engine series was revised in order to meet increasing demands. The main focus of development was the introduction of direct fuel injection for petrol engines and increasing the displacement to 3.6 dm³ especially for the US market. This was achieved without making changes to the vehicle package. The direct fuel injection tech-nology opened up further opportunities to master future exhaust emission standards and to reduce fuel consumption. Exhaust emission standards in accordance with EU4 and LEV2 were achieved without requiring secondary air injection into the exhaust system. The new engine has a maximum torque of 360 Nm and a nominal output of 206 kW at 6200 1/min. A 3.2 dm³ version with 330 Nm and 184 kW output is available for the European market.
