Volkswagen Golf Mk7 Owners Manual: Engine data

A full data table of every Volkswagen Golf Mk7 petrol and diesel engine: power output, injection technology, EC emissions classification, maximum torque, and cylinder count and capacity for each engine code. The manual notes that registration and taxation rules can make the quoted power and performance vary slightly by country, so treat these figures as the manufacturer's baseline rather than an absolute for your specific market.

First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings

For reasons of vehicle registration and vehicle taxation, the power output and performance of some engines may vary in some countries from the information given in this booklet.
