In FSI technology, the fuel is injected directly into
the combustion chamber and atomised
into a fine spray. This way, the fuel – metered
to almost droplet precision – can be called upon
the millisecond that the engine requires it.
This means better utilisation of the fuel and
ultimately, reduced consumption.
TFSI technology is employed in the Audi Q7. It
combines the advantages of FSI with a supercharger,
which ensures even better power delivery.
The Audi Q7 is available with a high-rev V6 TFSI
engine with 200 kW or 245 kW. It is not just the
peak torque that is impressive, there is also the
torque curve. With the 245 kW engine, at least
90 % of the 440 Nm maximum torque is
available across an engine speed range of 2,000
to 6,000 rpm. Thanks to its very spontaneous
responsiveness and exceptional power delivery
across the entire engine speed range, the
6-cylinder engine promotes a particularly
dynamic driving style.
In just a few seconds you will understand why.
The supercharger is a central element in boost pressure
generation. Or, put another way, it ensures outstanding
torque even at low engine speeds. The supercharger is a
highly integrated, mechanical charging module situated
between the two cylinder banks. The rotor unit, the
electrically controlled butterfly valve in the bypass bend
and the engine-side heat exchanger of the indirect charge
air cooling system are integrated in one single-piece cast
metal housing. The four-blade rotors mounted on an anti-
friction bearing compress by 160 ° and are covered with a
coating which allows the gap dimensions in the construction
to be reduced.
The fuel consumption and CO₂ emission figures can be found on page 106.
