A rumour is circulating that a V6 TSI turbocharged petrol engine from Volkswagen will be making a comeback. No Volkswagen product currently offers a turbo V6, which means this engine is brand new. Of course, Volkswagen could be about to preview a new unit that might find its way under the Passat or Touareg bonnet.
The other option is of course the Golf R Evo which has been rumored for a while now. This engine will probably have its cylinder block head replaced, along with a new turbo compressor installed. (pictured below is the last VW Golf r32 using a V6).
These modifications should help raise the engine’s output to about 370 hp and 450 Nm.
There is only just enough evidence around that suggests Volkswagen is looking to reveal such a model, let alone what will power the beast. This engine would certainly fit in well and rekindle the spirit of the old Golf R32 which had a V6.
