This whole "more power" phenomenon was created to sell more cars. Plain n simple. It's not needed.
my second car was a Jetta Diesel with 54 hp - it brought me from A to B and in Germany you have lots of highways with no speed limit.

i admit it wasnt always fun but do you need more power? No.

(i still prefer more hp though )

but thats not the point of this specific model.
