Volkswagen Polo has sharp and attractive exterior. The exterior is dynamic with the stylish headlamps, with logo in the chrome front grille and body colored bumper, rear view mirrors and door handles. Apart from that, the alloy wheels make car all the more attractive. The high-end variant exterior is equipped with the front and rear fog lamps, rear spoiler and many other features.
It has lot of impressive and interesting features. The ambiance of Volkswagen Polo has dual tone. The advanced instrumental cluster mounted on dual tone dashboard makes the car interior more innovative. The interior is equipped with front map lamp, dual tone elegant interior, stylish gear-knob, chrome-plated instrument surrounds, blue instrument lighting, aluminum-look pedals and glove box.
It is loaded with safety features like ABS, Apollo Acelers tyres, electronic power steering, ventilated front disc brakes, dual airbags, electronic anti-theft immobilizer, central locking, seat belts and fog lamps.
But each time the Polo had a makeover or a revision, the same Volkswagen engineers that had fumbled the ball during the car's initial production, found ways to make up for their miscalculations. And they kinda over compensated...
The MkII G40 I mentioned earlier displaced just 1300cc but generated 115bhp. It reached 62mph in an impressive 8.1 seconds and could achieve a top speed of 122mph. Since the G40, Polo's have been quick.
The MkIIIF had an entirely galvanised body and chassis mated with an over-engineered electrics and engine management system. I once installed aftermarket door speakers in a modern Japanese supermini, and the door cards were made of pressed plastic and behind them the door panel itself was made of what appeared to be wafer-thin tin. I did the same to my Polo GTi manufactured in the same year, and the corresponding door card was made out of a super-dense fibreboard with a plastic and fabric external covering and a medium-density foam internal filling to act as a sound dampener. Since the MkIII, Polo's have been reliable and well built.
And now we're on the MkIV, which is in fact approaching the end of its production cycle. With the next model scheduled to debut at the Geneva motor show later on this year, I wonder what we'll say its contribution to the Polo legacy has been. Will we say 'since the MkIV, Polo's have been economical and environmentally responsible? The Polo BlueMotion would have it so. With a 1.4l diesel engine which returns up to 72mpg while outputting just 99 grams of CO2, it's certainly possible.
One thing is for sure though, right now, with a new version on the horizon, there are some exceptional deals to be had throughout the current Polo range. From humble beginnings, the current Polo has evolved into a sophisticated and distinguished car.
