From VW.com:
On the heels of the introduction of the new EA888 engine in the 2014 Jetta and Passat, Volkswagen of America, Inc. announced today that its new turbocharged, direct-injection four cylinder has been named to the “Ward’s 10 Best Engines” list for 2014. The WardsAuto editors tested more than 40 vehicles and honored the all-new engine for its unique combination of refinement, power, value, and fuel economy.
“The all-new EA888 continues Volkswagen’s legacy of developing intelligently downsized engines that offer state-of-the-art technology, tremendous value and exhilarating performance,” said Dr. Heinz-Jakob Neußer, Member of the Board of Management Volkswagen Brand and Head of Group Powertrain Development Volkswagen AG. ”The new turbocharged 1.8-liter reinforces the brand’s leadership position, raising the bar in the market by providing an unmatched combination of power and fuel economy. This distinction is further validated by the honor from WardsAuto.”
“There are lots of good four cylinder turbocharged engines in the U.S. market, but VW’s all-new 1.8-liter is the new benchmark,” said Tom Murphy, Executive Editor, WardsAuto World magazine. “Judge it on refinement, power, affordability and fuel economy, and it becomes clear this engine is second to none.”
