A passion for perfection, a desire for excellence and the expertise to innovate. These are the driving forces that push our engineers forward, enabling them to develop superior, leading edge power plants ­ allowing you to reach your destination as quickly, efficiently and comfortably as possible. Representing the very best of our technologically advanced engines are three options: two powerful petrol engines and a highly innovative diesel engine. PETROL ENGINES. The V8 petrol engine offers impressive levels of efficiency and economy, its eight cylinders achieving a powerful 335 PS and a maximum torque of 430 Nm. Accelerating from 0-62 mph in just 6. 9 seconds, with a top speed of 155 mph, where legal, it packs a hefty punch, offering exceptional driving pleasure with the greatest of ease. While engine class is generally defined by cylinder count and configuration, the Phaeton W12 boasts the most compact 12-cylinder power plant in the world and is therefore in a class of its own. The 6. 0 litre capacity generates an exceptional 450 PS, accelerating the Phaeton from 0-62 mph in just 6. 1 seconds, making it one of the most powerful production cars ever made. Electronically capped at a top speed of 155 mph for safety reasons, your driving pleasure will know no limits with this truly awesome unit. DIESEL ENGINE. The V6 TDI DPF engine is Volkswagen's optimum answer to the demands of tomorrow. This technological masterpiece delivers a compelling story not only in terms of power and economy, but also reduces emissions so significantly as to meet the stringent new Euro 5 exhaust regulations. Fitted as standard with a DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter), the system filters out soot quickly and efficiently from exhaust emissions, producing less pollutants in the atmosphere. This six cylinder 233 PS engine spares nothing in terms of power and dynamic performance either, delivering an unprecedented 450 Nm of torque, enabling you to enjoy sheer driving pleasure.
