Why is the old Jetta with 1.6L engine so powerful?

First of all, the power system of the old Jetta is easy to pull the car body with only 1. 1 ton dead weight. In addition, drivers in previous years basically used the habit of using big foot throttle, and the most intuitive feeling of this habit is to accelerate quickly. No one will single out a car and say that it is better to accelerate. Not idle. Why not? However, despite the environmental impact of the market and the times, no one thinks that the old Jetta is slow, and even thinks that it accelerates quickly, which makes people feel a little strange. But only in the initial acceleration process. Because the acceleration in the middle and rear section has been limited by the power of the engine, it is impossible to speed up any faster.

If you want to make the vehicle run faster, you can achieve a certain goal by downshifting and replenishing oil, but the price of this operation is higher fuel consumption. In other words, the speed of the old Jetta is only a driver's perception. Because this aging engine has good acceleration ability even within 50km/h, due to the limitation of output, if you want to get faster acceleration ability in the middle and late stage, downshifting and refueling to increase torque is the only choice. But its maximum torque is only 140 Nm, even if it exceeds this value, it is impossible.

Although I only saw whether the powertrain of the old Jetta was a 1.6L displacement self-priming engine or a manual gear when searching for information, the zero-hundred-speed acceleration ability in normal state almost reached 13 and 14 seconds. All things considered, the performance of this old Jetta is not so good. If people who are used to automatic transmission are not. Looking at the paper data of the old Jetta, we know that the EA 1 13 engine does not reflect the high technology of the German Volkswagen. With the conventional 5-speed manual transmission, the maximum power value of 95 horsepower is already the limit. However, when you ask all the old drivers, you will find a strange situation.
