I brought VW TAIGUN 1.0 (AT) before 2 months (as I personally liked it more than Skoda Kushaq) & did 4000km till now… since it was a side family car so i decided to save nearly 2 lacs by not buying the 1.5L engine and started using it daily since it was new 😆… I must say the 1.0L engine is fantastic and I’m more than satisfied… went for a nice good quality highway stretch of 300km (one side) with 3 other adults and it was very smooth… reached upto 120-130kmph smoothly around 2200rpm (Average) and 1.0L doesn’t feel underpowered at all… fuel economy was around 11-12kmpl… overall I must say if u don’t wanna spend extra premium… go for 1.0L AT and you wont be disappointed… high value for money if you consider driving experience… kudos to VW & SKODA 👏 👏
Why doesn't skoda give the 1.5 tsi with torque converter?
Performance aand reliability will go hand in hand
Will be interesting to see Kushaq and Slyvia on this strip. Both 1 and 1.5!
I feel that 1 lt AT is good for cities where you need quick acceleration to clear traffic around you and 1.5 DSG for highways where you need quick shifting gears for fast overtaking. So both are good in their own aspect.
1.5 has dsg lag
Add weight to it with family and the bigger engine with long stroke will dominate further. But 1.0 is super practical and overall a reliable package due to the torque converter.
The skoda designs are so good though😍😍😍I regret not going to one of its showrooms when I was buying a car 2 years back... Bought Nexon instead...
Yes I'm huge fan of new Grille, looks aggressive!
Nexon is not regrettable either it's facelift model especially looks very good and it's a great car but what can we do about Inferiority complex of Indians and foreign slavish mentality
2 years ago, skoda only had rapid...
I booked Nexon XZ+S in Dec 21 and it was to be delivered last week of this month. 2 weeks ago i visited a newly opened Skoda showroom in my town and test drove Kushaq and 2 days later I cancelled my Nexon booking 😄
They indeed are handsome cars. But you would be spending way more in maintaining and servicing if you have bought a similarly priced Volkswagen or a Skoda car.
I got the 1.0 AT only and only because the DSG, despite being a cracker of a gearbox, has so little reliability. It's a shame that there are buyers who want the DSG performance and are ready to pay the premium but still don't have the confidence to make that decision.
So, i have made peace with the surprisingly peppy 1.0 litre mill mated to the excellent torque converter. I don't mind the extra 2-3 seconds taken and that's a decision i won't regret.
What about less efficiency in city conditions despite having less power?
Excellent decision! I dont understand what's wrong with the company.. dsg have had complaints since years now.
@@SuyashKaul FE is around 9-11 KMPL depending upon traffic. Heavier traffic it will be lower and slightly moving traffic it even goes 11 and above
OP: 1.5 L with Torque converter might sell better.
@@SuyashKaul As i have just bought the car, can't share first hand feedback. But it's a known fact that turbo charged engines don't take kindly to city conditions or a heavy foot on the accelerator. Anyway, my running will be more on the highway, so hoping I get decent mileage there. The cruise control will come in handy there, for sure.
@@zaidmemon2180 Agree. Wish the excellent 1.5 engines were offered with a torque converter too!
At city speeds 1.5 will just keep seeing 1.0's tail all day long. Skoda/VW should have provision for different drive modes where the T-Roc tune can be accessed, and 1.5 TSI + DSG combo can truly stretch its legs.
We need a race of the manuals. It is a drag race after all. Stick shift for life!
1.0 is more than enough on Indian roads and for safety too.
Can you please drag race 1 lt AT with its rivals in most favoured trims? That'll be more realistic approach to see the performance difference.
Thanks
Please bring the Ford Ecosport diesel on the drag strip I am eager to see how it will perform...
Love to see the performance diff between 2022 i20 vs i20 nline
Let's the 1.0 TSI manual vs 1.5 TSI MANUAL WITH KUSHAQ
ALSO WOULD BE GOOD to see slavia vs virtus 1.0 tsi manual and 1.5 tsi manual
Please do more roll on races. Those actually matters
I just touched 165 in kushaq1.5t and trust me it was stable af. No rattling or anything. Needless to say the most powerfull engine under 21L after XUV of course but that's huge so.....
I have touched 190 kmph with my 1.5 tsi manual.vehicle is very stable upto 140. 190 speed done at madurai to tuticorin highway.
I touched 240 in Nano on expressway. Rock solid stability. Indians are competing with Germans. Long live Ratan Tata.
Please do the same with all the other cars present in the nation. Helps a lot who are going to buy the cars and bikes.
How's 1.5DSG in bumper to bumper traffic ?
Damn! Loved this. Can you do kiger next?
Ford figo tdci vs i20 1.5 crdi 2022 please do that.
Where are the other drag races ?????,
Pls upload more drag races
Wish this was between the kushaq vs taigun or kushaq vs slavia.
Waiting for the Xuv700 petrol drag Race
Meanwhile Truck is taking EQC to its charging station 😂 1:45
😂😂
Do a drag race of skoda slavia 1.0 and 1.5 tsi
I predicted it! The winner would be the kushaq!
This type engine comparison we want.
This new thread of drag races is interesting but i would love to watch battles between comparable vehicles more
Nexon ev vs 1.5 kushaq or taigun..
I really wanna see vento 1.0tsi vs virtus 1.0 tsi
DQ200 is much reliable than the previous ones! My pick will be 1.5 DSG but in Taigun😜
So would this result be comparable to the slavia and the Virtus too?
They're gonna perform a bit better imo.
Its not about slavia and virtus. Its about 1.0 and 1.5. Both cars have both of em.
Sedans have better aerodynamics ig
wasnt kushaq 1.0 in sports mode?
Anyway 1.5l..
Reason engine n power output ..
Hey i am always selfish n hungry for best engine n output torque ratio...
Price is crucial but slight bump for a happy ownership rather than a guilt of IF..
Ex:- 85&110ps for duster ...
72&100ps for kiger ...
I believe a customer should go for the best engine n torque ratio for the price one search for..
Second mileage delivery
Luggage loading followed by ground clearance to wade through water..
Also the feature it offer for the price...
But before searching ...select the segment for the price
No one did drag race between Creta 1.4 dct & Alcazar 2.0 Petrol AT. It will be more interesting if done between Carens 1.4 DCT & Alcazar 2.0 Petrol AT.
I already have 1.5 Tsi Manual😇❤
Both are good in their respective uses if u want true performance and fun 1.5 is the one to go…if u are just a regular driver with most driving in city and occasional weekend drives 1.0 does the job very well and trust me it doesn’t feel underpowered, try ur self and feel it
Please upload these more frequently.
Do the same with Salvia or Virtus
Nice autocar..... 👍 ...1ltr is practical ...i choose 1ltr ....pls gloster vs fortuner and also gloster 4×2 vs Innova crysta 2.4 🙂
Kushaq 1L vs Taigun 1L vs Venue DCT 1L vs Brezza AT plz 😁
Next drag: XUV 700 Petrol vs VW Tiguan 2.0 TSI
I did the same drag both were automatics as well but I manage a good footwork in 1.5 and believe me it was even quicker from the 1.0 L tsi
1.5 is always a good bet..
1.0 for the bucks👍🏽
I wish there were 1.5 l tdi engine
WE WANT KUSHAQ 1.0 VS TAIGUN 1.0
Need safari and XUV 700
Expected.. Bt Y Nt Try Wit VW Taigun
Should have done with manuals.
Just a suggestion , include a rolling race for more fun 🤪
Location??
I thought we'll see Xuv700 vs Polo 😅
Nothing in the automatic segment is bang for your buck anymore. Prices creep up and cost cutting continues.
Of course the strange structure and high value of taxes don’t help.
The Virtus and the Slavia 1.5 will literally be rocketsss
Skoda always are class apart. Tough enough and kushaq is all emperor
Always torque converter at ❤️.... notorious dsg👎
Kushaq vs xuv 700
1.5 is better for longer run. Over the period engine tends to slow down and 1.0 will lose its charm !!! Always bigger engine for SUV gives peace of mind for longer run
That 1.5 TSI with cylinder deactivation has not necessarily been the best example of longevity, at least not without issues since it’s launch in 2017. Some changes have been made but I would suggest to tread with caution
As far as India is concerned I would go with 1.0 TSI as it has a much simpler design and the city driving in high temperatures are not necessarily the best to test ‘new’ designs that have yet to prove their merits.
These engines use a lot of engine oil lines to actuate the deactivation features. So do change your engine oil before 10k kms. Waiting for 15k is stretching in this case
Also, over how long the engine slows down? Keep up with maintenance, it will perform almost like new even after 100k kms. Good engines don’t lose compression before 200k or even 300k kms
"SUV" 🤣
Wrong. It’s all how about how one maintains a car, with proper oiling and cleaning.
Taigun vs Kushaq
2:05 the foreshadowing in the background of kushaq owners after the drag race
My Recent Favorite Skoda Kushaq❤❤❤❤❤❤
I really love the grill
Do taigun 1.5 vs 700
3 cylinder initially pickup in 115 hp 🤍
Fan Request - tiago icng vs tiago petrol
Bring in Duster 1.3 vs Taigun/ Kushaq 1.5
Glad to get the 1.5 instead of 1.0. DSG for the win! Anyday.
After seeing how much the 1.0 3-cylinder engine on my Taigun struggles under 2000 RPM, I regret not going for 1.5, but there’s unaffordability aspect too !
I thought it have adequate power though
But you get cylinder deactivation though
Please can you elaborate the issues you are facing because of the engine? Just curious to know and get your feedback
Compare Slavia 1.5 DSG with Kushaq
1.5 tsi all the way..
Nice 👌
1.5l tsi has no competition
Should have shamed creta with 1.5 kushaq. But they chose to be silent.
hyundai 1.5 is the naturally aspirated engine right..
should race 1.4 turbo creta vs 1.5 tsi kushaq instead
@@Moonlight-hq3gi he said 1.5 kushaq not 1.5 creta.. 1.5 creta would get absolutely run over by the 1.5 kushaq lol
@Aprameya Tatachari
okay noted 😊
anyways,i told about racing turbo vs turbo
creta 1.4 vs kushaq 1.5
didn't say creta will win
🤣
@Aprameya Tatachari
it's kushaq
not musthaq
🤣🙏
all makes error right
Ultimately Kushaq wins 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

DSG Supremacy! 🤭
Waste comparo ... Better would be 1.0 tsi vs 1.5 na creta or seltos
Shows what a stupid gearbox is DSG/ DCT!!.. Jerky, dull/ unresponsive, unreliable..
