Not so. VW also came out with the single turbo 1.4TSi engine for regular models. It produces 121hp as opposed to 178hp with the twincharger but it's 14kg lighter & water cooled intercooler.
the 1.4 turbo produce 122PS 200Nm1.4twin 160PS 240Nm
the golf in other countries has these 2 engines
but i'm sure VW has no prob to use only turbo and got 160ps 240nm
plus max torque with the turbo arrives at 1700rpm or lower, hence there are no issue of supercharger needing to cover lower revs range
