Touareg in offroad action

It was hard to torture my new car this way but it did good job - as expected.

Diesel have very much more power than Petrol on slow RPM . Diesel its better , becouse its don,t dies by a bruttal acceleration , but petrol dies on slow RPM , but the single on petrol is , it have very much RPM than Diesel for speed , but its consume very much . My conclusion is , the Diesel is the best engine.

@ADY285 If your engine dies, your car is junk or the driver. My friends V10 diesel eats 13 liter/100 km and my V8 15-16. He pays double as much for tax and more for insurance and inspections. Two other guys that I know burnt up of the V10 twin turbos. Cost € 15.000 to fix.

Diesel don't make much more power than Petrol, but they make ALOT more Torque

[desireless4ever]

Yes, on the engine crankshaft. But not on the wheel.

@desireless4ever what type of engine you have is irrelevant to how much power youre gonna get at the wheels. say a diesel has 250 ft/lbs of torque at the crank and a gas engine has 250 ft/lbs of torque at the crank and you put them in the same car, the gasser wont make more for whatever reason you think so. it all has to do with how efficient the manufacturer designed it the drivetrain

[desireless4ever]

@chinchillawrangler You are absolutely right and I cannot spot any of my postings stating otherwise. At the end of the story, the power on the wheel proofs how powerful and efficient the whole engine and drivetrain really is.

@SneakyTweaky totally WRONG !!!! diesel has more torque then gasoline !!! power (HP) not equal torque (Nm) !

That's one dirty kitchen!

@VolkswagOwned Only TURBO-diesels.... NA diesels are useless.... Why not compare with turboed petrol engines ?

@VolkswagOwned that's why gearboxes exist, petrols have different ratios so that the wheel torque is the same.

So was this a shortcut to soccer practice?

@ADY285 not power. TORQUE.

TIP!! TIP!! TIP!!!

[BROOKLYNCHAJES]

that was impressive i want one...

[MrLowAltitude]

@chinchillawrangler ... engine characteristic, torque curve, power band (range of RPM's that the engine makes usable power), drivetrain and so on...
