Full review Polo1.2 2010-12 trandline

VW launched its fifth-generation Polo in 2010 and it again raised the bar for the hard-fought class. It was longer, wider and higher than its predecessor, and with a longer wheelbase and wider track boasted a larger footprint. With its increased size came more cabin space, such that it was beginning to rival the Golf of earlier times. There were two hatch body styles, a three-door and one with five, and two levels of equipment, the Trendline and the Comfortline, petrol and diesel engines, and manual and auto transmissions. The Polo follows the VW line with styling that is understated but pleasing, its lines are smooth and flowing and its proportions are well balanced. Inside it was nicely laid out, the fit and finish was of a high standard and the seats were comfortable and supportive. Given that it's a small car the Polo's cabin is nevertheless quite roomy with sufficient head and leg room for front passengers, and ample room for a couple in the rear. Beyond the cabin is a decent boot for a small car, and a split-fold rear seat enhances its load-carrying flexibility. Entry to the range was through the three-door Trendline hatch with a 1.4-litre petrol engine, from there you stepped up to the Comfortline with either the 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine of the 1.6-litre turbo-diesel. Performance from the 1.4-litre engine that comes with the Trendline is smooth and easy; the turbocharged 1.2-litre that is available with the Comfortline boasts the zip of a larger engine and the economy of a small engine, while the diesel delivers terrific driveability thanks to its great torque along with miserly fuel consumption. The transmission choices are between manual gearboxes, five or six-speed depending on the model, and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. On the road the Polo's ride is smooth and comfortable, its handling is assured and responsive. Best car for long and short drive very comfortable and easy to drive and trevle. Speed gain upto 200 kmph normally. And take 0-100 in 10 seconds. Best wordclass double tone interiors in this car. Best power and pickup. It is the best hatchback in India.
