Skoda Kushaq power and torque explained

The Skoda Kushaq offers two turbo petrol engines. The 1.0 TSI makes 115 PS and 178 Nm with a six speed manual or a new eight speed torque converter automatic. The 1.5 TSI makes 150 PS and 250 Nm and comes only with a seven speed DSG.

The 1.0 suits relaxed daily driving, while the 1.5, offered on the Sportline, Prestige and Monte Carlo, is the one for highway pace.

How to read this chart. Torque is the push you feel when you accelerate, and it peaks low on the rev range. Power is how hard the engine keeps pulling as it revs higher, and it peaks further up. The two dots mark those peaks. The shaded strip between them is the flexibility band: a wider band pulls easily across more revs and feels relaxed in traffic, while a narrower band asks you to rev the engine more to get its best. Use the buttons above to compare this car's engines.

Peak figures come from the 1.0L TSI Petrol spec sheet. The line between the two peaks is not a measured dyno curve.

The 1.0 TSI gives its full 178 Nm from 1750 to 4000 rpm, so it pulls cleanly from low speeds and rarely needs a downshift in traffic. Its 115 PS peak arrives between 5000 and 5500 rpm. With the eight speed automatic, the gearbox keeps it in that strong middle band most of the time.

The 1.5 TSI delivers 250 Nm from just 1600 rpm and holds it to 3500 rpm, then builds to 150 PS between 5000 and 6000 rpm. That makes overtakes with a full car quick and easy. It is certified at 18.72 kmpl, under a kmpl below the 1.0 automatic, and it brings rear disc brakes too. The cheapest way in is the Sportline 1.5 TSI DSG.
