Actually, it's not close at all.Stock for Stock the 1.5 turbo cvt ain't miles ahead of the na cvt, it's like less than half a second faster, won't make any difference in driving unless tuned
Most pro reviews show the stock 1.5T CVT at 6.6 to 6.8 secs, 0-60. The 2.0 CVT in the low 8 second range.
Here are C&D's test drive numbers:
1.5T CVT
2.0 CVT
The CVT mates up much better with the turbo than it does with the NA engine. Interestingly, where the CVT turbos are probably as quick or quicker than the manual ones, the 2.0 NA with a manual is noticeably quicker than the 2.0 CVT version.
2.0 Manual
