Impressive numbers on the brochure. Peugeot. Oh wait, perhaps BMW. Since BMW is behind the Peugeot engine development.
1.6 petrol direct injection with twin scroll turbo charger yields 147kW (200PS) and 275Nm which is on par with VW Golf GTI Mk6 with 155kW(210PS) 280Nm but on a 2.0 TSI engine.
Japanese, on the other hand, which used to be famous of all those high-power, small capacity engines, is still lagging on behind of the european folks, who play with force induction petrol direct injection engine like ABC 123 nowadays. Who wants boring 1.5 i-VTEC or 1.5 VVT-i (don't mention 1.6 CPS) while 1.2 TSI with 7-speed DSG gives you the WOW...
