We tested the new engine Seat Ibiza 1.5 TSI turbo petrol 150 hp with cylinder shutdown system. These are our first impressions and measured actual consumption data (in the video, you can see how we recorded the power curve).

The fifth generation of the Seat Ibiza has just landed on the market. One of the great innovations in its range is the iNCORPORATION 1.5 TSI ACT engine with cylinder shutdown system, a propellant replace still in use 1.4 TSI ACT.

East ACT 1.5 TSI engine Seat Ibiza comes with many new features inside, already we reveal in his first test, according to our measurements and what contributes most is a reduction in fuel consumption. How to make us forget what could be his counterpart in Diesel? For from Autopista we say yes, as long as we drive efficiently and to legal rhythms.

We have obtained a tight actual consumption in highway from 5.1 l / 100 and of 6 l / 100 km in city, consumption in gasoline engines unthinkable until the arrival of this engine. With respect to 1.4 TSI (With shorter development and better performance change, it must be said), and focusing on the Ibiza, say that in your ACT version (disconnection of cylinders) of 140 hp we spent 5.8 Y 7.1 l / 100 respectively, of this three years ago. And if as we move into the year 2009, this same 1.4 150 CV without disconnection of cylinders without Stop&Start, threw a high (Compared to 1.5) 6.6 Y 9.3 l / 100 km, respectively.

He bank performance at the level of horses (power) It has been almost exactly the 1.4 TSi ACT 140 hp (151 hp for this and 150.9 for the new), but not the torque, since the new 1.5 it has been somewhat far (25.1 mkg) of 28.8 mkg which yielded excellent 1.4. What I do is check the cylinder shutdown in circulation it is more common than before if we do our part.

He weight gain Seat Ibiza 2017, compared to 1.4 of this article, it was just 18 kg, considering it is a car with more packaging as regards the width. The work done inside cabin for a leader in its category is worthy of review, with legroom senior and a trunk of 330 liters (according to our measurements), above the average and equating the measured capacity with Clio, although it is far from the intocables 355 liters of Fabia.

Overall, the Seat Ibiza 2017 is a very pleasant car to drive in urban traffic, with a high degree of satisfaction on the road and with more than good skills sporty driving. Just put him on but the front armrest is adjustable for height and masking, by means of false escapes, real leaks.
