    TSI - Turbo Stratified Injection (same as Audi's TFSI - Turbo Fuel Stratified Injection) or basically a turbocharged petrol engine in VW terms
    TDI - Turbocharged Direct Injection, same as other brands' turbo diesel engines

    I hope it's true they'll bring the new Golf instead.

    No Polo as well? Looks like their PH lineup is rather conservative.

    Hopefully replacement parts are abudant due to their presence in China.

    I think new Golf will be a good potential sports hatch but yes, new gen will be available next year pa.

    I'm a bit surprised they are bringing in the Touran. I've ridden several times as it's commonly used as a taxi in Europe and I personally find it very plain and boring. The new Kia Carens definitely looks much better.

    Tiguan is more interesting but it's been around for many years na pala and might be due for a replacement soon.

    Volkswagen to open in September with all-diesel product lineup - Industry News

    "The Touran, the Tiguan and the Touareg will all be sourced from Germany, while the Jetta and the Beetle will come from Mexico. The Polo will be imported from India. Doria explained that it is simply not possible to get the units from China--where Volkswagen has a big manufacturing base--since the demand of the Chinese market alone is more than what VW's facilities in the country can produce."
