Volkswagen AEG/AVH/AZG specs: 2.0L (121.1 ci) 4-cylinder, 82.5 x 92.8 mm (3.2480 x 3.6535 in) bore and stroke. Rated 115 hp, 2000–2006.
The Volkswagen AEG/AVH/AZG is undersquare — the 3.6535" stroke exceeds the 3.248" bore by 11.1% — a layout that trades peak RPM for leverage and torque low in the range. The 3.6535" stroke puts mean piston speed at 4,000 ft/min around 6,550 RPM, which is where a production bottom end is generally considered at its limit. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 30.3 ci (496 cc).
It is one of 8 engines in the EA827 family, the largest at 121.1 ci. 7 factory variants share these dimensions, rated at 115 hp across 2000–2006.
