List of Volkswagen Group petrol engines

This page lists automobile engines that Volkswagen has used.

EA111

The EA111 series was introduced in the mid 1970s in the Audi 50 and later the VW Polo. It is a series of three- and four-cylinder petrol and Diesel engines in a variety of sizes. The overhead cam engine features a crossflow cylinder head design and directly-driven auxiliary units.

The 1.4 L (1390 cc/84 in³) version is a DOHC design with 4 valves per cylinder. It has a 10.5:1 compression ratio and produces 60 kW (80 hp) and 127 N·m (93 ft·lbf).

1.6

The other EA111 petrol engine displaces 1.6 L (1595 cc/97 in³) but is an SOHC 2-valve design. With 10:1 compression, output is 74 kW (99 hp) and 140 N·m (103 ft·lbf).

1.4 TDI

The Diesel version is the 3-cylinder 1.4 L (1422 cc/86 in³) 1.4 TDI. It is an SOHC 6-valve engine with direct injection, and a turbocharger and intercooler. Output is 55 hp (41 kW) and 195 N·m (143 ft·lbf).
