Under the bonnet, the original VW four-cylinder flat engine continues to do the work in the 1300 (44 hp) and 1300 S (60 hp) versions. The chassis modifications include new wheels 15 inches in diameter, a revised suspension with torsion bars and a widened track, as well as worm steering (patented by Porsche). All these developments translate into clearly improved stability and precision at high speeds.
* The weight is the maximum measured weight (EC standard).
** The power figures refer to vehicles with a manual gearbox (except Cayenne and Panamera).
*** The value is the one published by Flat6 Magazine or LVA (average of good and very good), which in our opinion is the closest to the market price, with a slight tendency to overvalue older models. For this purpose, the vehicle is assumed to have covered an average of 10,000 km per year. We do not give any value for current models.
