The Polo

A real eye-catcher.

The moment you set eyes on Polo, you’ll see that every inch has been carefully considered to bring you a vehicle with charisma at every curve. From front to back, Polo features a masculine arrow-shaped tornado line. This distinct new design line cuts a dash along the side of the car, from the indicators all the way to the rear lights. This structures the car’s side profile, forming a strong shoulder section that gives Polo a bolder presence than before. The chrome trim and dark red tail lights in the bumper underline its sporty and elegant appearance, accentuating Polo’s key characteristics. With its contemporary design, Polo will inspire you to go from the dull, grey office rug to Hollywood’s red carpet.

Eco Function* with Drive Profile Selection enables the driver to choose an engine setting that suits their needs.

In the Highline and GTI models, Eco Function comes standard, allowing the engine and gearbox to be optimised for a more economical drive.

Interior

The sky is no longer your limit

To create a car that inspires drivers to go beyond their limits; the Volkswagen design team pushed beyond their own limits. From the steering wheel to the completely redesigned dashboard that ensures an optimal line of sight for critical information; every inch of Polo’s interior has been designed to create a space that inspires and ignites the driver.

The interior can also confidently expand with Polo’s split-folding rear seats, larger 350l boot and variable load floors that make the rear space flexible and practical.

The optional, wider opening panoramic sliding sunroof, and tinted glass with a high-quality roller blind proves the possibilities are endless with Polo.

Technology

Connect to the future

Step into a modern world with Polo’s innovative App-Connect feature and Active Info Display. Whether you want to make phone calls, listen to your favourite music or navigate to an exciting destination, Polo connects you to the world like never before.

The classic analogue display component can be replaced with a crystal clear 26cm (10.25”) screen; personalised to display information that goes far beyond speed and fuel gauge.

Travelling to your destination will be a breeze and with Parallel Park Assist*, parking will be too. The revolutionary feature means Polo can practically park itself; cleverly steering into the tightest of spaces at the touch of a button, while the driver maintains control.

With a car this advanced, you’ll think Polo is back from the future.

Start-stop system with brake energy recuperation

Slow down on the spending

The start-stop system saves fuel by switching off the engine when the vehicle is stationary. Like when it’s at a red traffic light. All you have to do is take your foot off the clutch. When the lights go green, just engage the clutch again and the engine will start back up. Just as simple and efficient: brake energy recuperation. This function uses an alternator to generate energy when you apply the brake or coast. This energy is then stored in the battery.

Driving profile selection

The Polo adapts to your driving style

With the optional driving profile selection function, the Polo adjusts to your driving style. Depending on what is most important to you. And you can even change it for every journey if you like. Simply select the driving profile you want by pressing the button or using the touchscreen and then the drive system, steering response and even the gear-shift points will be adjusted automatically.

Eco: For fuel-efficient driving
Normal: For normal driving comfort

A new standard of safety

Polo boasts an incredible array of safety features, raising the segment to a whole new level.

The optional rear-view camera allows any obstacles behind Polo - even moving ones – to be more visible, making reversing safer and easier thanks to unmatched technology built into the boot.

Polo’s Park Distance Control with Manoeuvre Braking constantly monitors the distance around Polo and automatically activates the brakes if it is approaching a stationary vehicle while manoeuvering.

Optional Blind Spot Detection sees what you don’t; helping you avoid objects outside of your line of sight.

LED daytime running lights comes standard in Polo, with optional LED headlights that feature larger light volume, longer durability and daylight-like light spectrum with a lower energy requirement, giving Polo the ability to see and be seen more by other vehicles.
