Why is the performance of the old Jetta with small displacement and fierce power amazing?

I don't remember when the old Jetta was released, but friends who have been driving for more than ten years should have their own understanding of the old Jetta, whether they have driven it or heard it from hearsay. That's an old Jetta. It's really powerful.

Small displacement, but strong power. With such performance, the old Jetta left the impression of "God Car" to that generation, and also detonated the sales volume during that period, and achieved high sales results during that period.

There are three main reasons for this performance.

First, the body is light.

As an old car, the old Jetta didn't have so many "dispensable" configurations at that time. As a qualified scooter, the body of the old Jetta is very light, almost 200 kilograms lighter than the current car of the same class.

Don't underestimate the weight of 200 kilograms. Think about it. Do you feel different when you drive your car with 200 kilograms of things?

Second, the gearbox.

The old Jetta is a manual gearbox, which is more operable than the current mainstream automatic gearbox, and does not pursue too smooth speed increase, so that the speed increase of the old Jetta can be faster.

Third, the engine.

The cable throttle engine of the old Jetta is relatively simple and rude. As long as you step on the accelerator, the engine will output without reservation.

Together, these three factors have made the performance of the old Jetta in hard power, which has been recognized by many people. Nowadays, it is difficult to see the old Jetta again. With the emergence of new energy electric vehicles, the "classic car" of the old Jetta will be gradually forgotten, but in any case, as a former "magic car", the old Jetta has contributed its historical mission. @20 19
