It's "2.0 TSI", not TFSI. So expect some figure bigger than 200 hp.

the 2.0tsi is the same engine as the 2.0tfsi they only changed the name scheme...
tsi = turbo stratified injection
tfsi = turbo fuel stratified injection
they just take out the fuel part of the line as it is obvious
so you could see this car in 200 240 260 or 275 hp variants

I wouldn't say if it's just a naming scheme, because if you're aware of VW's engines, there are two separate engine technologies named TFSI and TSI.
TFSI is just what's in the current GTI, turbocharged FSI engine, while TSI is turbocharged-supercharged engine, as seen in the Golf GT with 1.4 turbocharger AND supercharger.
So unless VW is changing the use of such badge, I think this 2.0 TSI badge should yield a more powerful engine with better fuel efficiency (like the 1.4 TSI)
