2024 VW Golf 8 Variant 1.5 TSI Facelift Manual 116 PS TOP SPEED AUTOBAHN DRIVE POV

[@kardoskuti]

Great to see that the 1.0 TSI is ditched. After driven both, the 1.5 TSI is even more economical than the 1.0 and has more cylinders, literally no point of the 1 litre.

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

Yes i was impressed with this engine. Its really good engine and hopefuly last over 250.000 km :)

[@sezerarslan604]

@@TESTDRIVEFREAK why u said hope fully last over 250k. don't you think so ?

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

@@sezerarslan604 because i have read some comments from other driver that small engine like 1.0 liter or psa 1.2 liter last until 30-80k km. Bigger engine longer lifespan. My workmate 1.4 tsi last until 200k km but he drove always sporty.

[@agahcakr400]

​@@TESTDRIVEFREAK What about 1.2 tsi engines ? I have read that they are not very reliable,they have oil reducing and wastegate problems.

[@DrBeast100]

​@@TESTDRIVEFREAKEverything depends on the maintenance! If you drive sporty you have to do the oil change at max 10k km to have a healthy engine.

[@Digi20]

So much nicer than the 1.0 and actually totally enough for most usecases.

[@manudelouya]

very good for 116 ps as always for tsi engines

Wunderschön video... TOP 👍👍👍👍👍 Schönen Sonntag und Gute Woche Test Drive Freak Liebe Grüße

I wish there was an option with the smaller screen in the middle.

Really good fuel consumption!

[@marcelmusic3086]

6:05 7.5L/100km is crazy at 180 km/h. I was expecting more.

[@6.2v87]

It‘s not the real time consumption

[@valance27]

@@6.2v87 True but 7.5l with his drivingstyle is pretty nice

[@steffenbeer6216]

​@@valance27It's not the consumption over the hole vid. The are some restarts.

[@morepower1989]

@@valance27 at 180 km/h it's gonna be 10 liters. You cannot cheat physics, it's not a large engine and the rpm at that speed will affect the overall consumption. It's gonna be great at 90/130 though. But if I were going to drive a lot on the autobahn, I would take 2.0 TDI anyway. It all depends on the average mileage per year.

[@valance27]

@@morepower1989 I know that its impossible to get 7.5 liters with 180 km/h. I meant his average driving with (due to traffic) slower parts. But as someone already said, there where some restarts. PS. diesel would be nicer, but I live near big cities and diesel prohibitations in urban areas are at least in conversation right now. So I wont take the risk buying a diesel and not being able to drive in these cities :D

[@playmak7216]

I've been waiting for a long time either for an 8.5 review translated into Russian, or just driving like that I would also like to watch the same video only with driving in a country area or in the city (if I have mistakes or some words are not written correctly, then I'm sorry, I'm just with a translator) And I saw that there is the same video in the city

Good Luck for baby Golf 8 variant😊😅

Is there 2 cylinder deactivation with this 1.5 116 ps machine?

[@shropshire1233]

Was this the basic Life or Style spec?

[@fadeleus]

Is this road noise normal? I tested the exact same specs and it also had some loud road noise even at slow speed.

[@till4866]

May have been the surface you were driving on

[@kvaf79]

If you drive most of time In the city do you know the consumption??

[@christophnolte8191]

WLTP Norm: Stadtverbrauch 7,3 l , Stadtrand 5,5 l.

[@hazemmah3548]

Can you explain how 1.5 and 116 hp ?

[@MFSE7EN]

New engine variant on the facelift 🙂

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

And smaller turbo for longer engine realibity

[@daniel.oe14maerz9]

Warum sollte der kleine Dreizylinder nicht auch lange halten? Man sollte dem Motor nur gelegentlich mal ne Durchsicht und nen Ölwechsel gönnen. Und vielleicht nen anderen Fahrstil an den Tag legen, das schmerzt ja schon beim Zuhören. ​@@TESTDRIVEFREAK

[@vwgolf8storungenmalfunctio297]

you driving 190 km on shift 5???? how is this possible with 116 ps, i always shift after 100 km to 6

[@cri1410sti]

actually 215km/h in 5th gear, is ~5k rpm, the max power is 5000-6000 rpm, the max/cutoff rpm is 6300 😊

[@brynshepherd4531]

Brilliant video, 0:05 I'm guessing 6 speed manual

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

Yes you are right

[@robloxfan4271]

not bad, though the 150ps is better

[@hannycurak3259]

why 114 / 116?

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

PS or PferdStarke is the metric measure of horsepower. It is the equivalent of 98.6% of one HP. The official measure in the European Union is kW - kilowatts - but is rarely used in everyday descriptions.

Una pregunta dónde está la escoria que tanto critica a cupra con este mismo motor y caja de cambios con el famoso cascabeleo

[@arcton6636]

„Golf 8 Km77“ on KZbin 😢 Good comfortable car, but yeah… Golf 7 was better in this discipline 😢

[@kamysamaa]

old cars are always better ...new cars are all about cost reduction and consumerism

[@_petar]

When I hear golf I imagine local town old ones with the TDI leaving black clouds behind, what a disaster!

[@fanthomas7712]

Are you sure ...not 1.5 150 hp ?

[@or298_gaming]

They do both 115 and 150hp versions. Entry level versions come with the option upgrade to 150hp but r line comes 150hp as standard
