Looks like it's the VW 1.2L 3 cylinder gasoline engine that's already in the small VW Polo (60-75 HP, think Golf II size).
I seem to recall it's a gas version of the VW 1.2 L TDi.
It makes sense to put in in another VW product to avoid serious fitting issues.
And obviously to prove the downsizing point.

VW already puts 1.4 L / 122-160 HP gas engines in the big Passat and other cars in their range.
