E10 94 ron

I tried one out but don't own an OBDeleven. You must be really bored to go through people's past posts

When I bought the Tiguan, Petrol was much cheaper. I am not like fanbois who are wedded to particular brands.

The Tiguan 162 was the best in its class when I bought it at the time. (0-100 in 6.9sec).

Now the market has moved on and I don't see the current version of VW cars being anything special.
If anything I would say their foray into EV's have been a failure. Telsa, Kia and Hyundai are making the best EV's atm.

I expect the new Mazda CX-60 3.3L Turbo will offer a better proposition than the VW equivalent of bang for buck.

Not sure whether a CX60 is a good proposition but each to their own. What is worth pointing out is that in Australia only 95 and 98 have a sulfur content low enough for the catalytic converter to do its job. 91 and E10 are at best junk due to the ridiculous standards here.

We had a 162TSI with the APR stage 1 and it went really well, made something like 500+Nm and 230kw at the crank. Now we bought the Tiguan R with the new engine/turbo and are about to have that tuned as well. Try to do that with a CX60.

What is the cost of the Tiguan R + tuning?
What 0-100km/h do you get?

If you are after real straight line acceleration with linear torque you may want to consider a Tesla Model Y Long Range (or Performance)

Even stock the Tiguan R will do 0-100 in 5.2s. No other SUV under $120K can match that.

Any of those "performance" Teslas will in 10 sequential runs only beat the R 2-3 times and that is if run 1 was at 100% battery capacity. The ECU in the Teslas starts restricting performance even after 1 hot start and continues to wind back performance every single start after to protect and conserve the battery.

Standard Model Y (non-performance) on the Nurburgring. Worth watching the acceleration and speedo.
