Volkswagen Passt vs Hyundai Sonata Engine Specs

volkswagen passat vs hyundai sonata engine specs
The Volkswagen Passat is motivated by a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine that produces 174 horsepower and 206 lb-ft of torque. It is mated to a smooth-shifting six-speed automatic transmission. It is a transverse-mounted front-wheel-drive vehicle. All-wheel-drive is not available.

By comparison, the Hyundai Sonata is powered by a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine that makes 180 horsepower but falls slightly short at the more important number: 195 lb-ft of torque. It is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Just like the Passat, the Sonata is available only as a front-wheel-drive vehicle. Torque is the all-important number that tells how much power is available while the engine is not working as hard. In this case, the Passat wins!
