Audi TFSI technology stands for Turbocharged Fuel Stratified Injection and it was the first engine in the automotive industry to combine direct fuel injection and turbocharging. Combining these two advanced engine technologies leads to significant improvements in both fuel economy and performance. Here are three benefits of Audi TFSI technology.
Improved efficiency
By combining turbocharging and direct injection, Audi TFSI engines benefit from an improved and higher compression ratio. This results in an optimized air-fuel mixture within the cylinder. A higher compression ratio leads to better fuel economy because the engine can extract more power out of every drop of fuel.
A wide range of applications
TFSI technology, although somewhat complex, is fairly simple to implement across different engine types. That's why you can find four-cylinder, six-cylinder, and even eight-cylinder TFSI Audi engines on the market today. You will find them in every type of vehicle including Audi RS models who use the enhanced fuel-burning capabilities of TFSI to enhance performance.
Improved durability
One benefit of combining turbocharging and direct injection is that the temperature decreases in the cylinder. That means that the TFSI engine provides improved long-term durability while also managing excess heat more efficiently. This can be particularly useful during long days of lapping on the track.
