Drivers of non-RS variants also get their money's worth: drivers can look forward to an SUV that's adequately powerful as a diesel as well as a petrol thanks to ABT Sportsline. The power boost is provided by the ABT Engine Control (AEC) unit.
The 2.0 TDI with 193 HP (142 kW) in the production model can also order a boost. We get up to 220 HP (162 kW) from the diesel engine, increasing the maximum torque to 440 Nm.
The upgrade gives the 1.5 TSI, for example, 190 HP (140 kW) and up to 290 Nm, turning it into a true alpha.
