Hi, I have a question about today’s modern cars. It used to be that diesel was pulling better than gasoline. But what was that about? Is the diesel engine in itself built in such a way that it builds up more torque compared to the petrol engine, or does it have something to do with the turbocharger? New vehicles are almost all equipped with a turbo. It is said that today’s petrol engines drive exactly like diesel vehicles. Is that really true? I’ve never driven a diesel before. And that’s why I want to know exactly. I have a small example to say that this is not the case. Golf 7 GTI vs. GTD. The GTD pulls off the GTI when starting and for a short time. But why is that? The GTI (we take the normal one) has 220 hp and 350 Nm from 1500 rpm. The GTD with its 184 hp delivers 380 Nm from 1750 rpm. So are these 30 Nm decisive for the faster acceleration, or is it also on the engine itself? Both have a 2 Nm. l engine. Once assumed GTI and GTD would race against each other without a turbo. Who would do the race there? In the past it was so that diesel without a turbo were the total crutches. Would that be comparable to gasoline suction engines? So: Do today’s turbo gasoline FAST drive like diesel, or is that not comparable despite the extra power of the turbo?
