Best mid size segment car i bought

 

Exterior I have never seen a better looking car then Polo in this segment in india. amazing paint job and absolute worthy of have a VW badge on itself.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very good quality again with the fibre and plastic, good front leg room and head room, not enough leg room in the back but not something that cant be managed. Beautiful sound system with amazing red lights gives a very sporty feel.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox This is the best thing about this car... its sounds so amazing that you wouldnt believe it. Give you a feeling of nice sports car with a price of small car. Feather touch gearbox it is so smooth that you just need a finger to move it, highways awesome economy in the city max i get is 12 with Air con engine revs to 8k RPM and the way it catches speed is mindblowing. couldnt really put a finger on the engine performance and gearbox.

Ride Quality & Handling The steering is so responsive that i couldnt believe that this car was sold in india that this price. No bullshit steerings like Hyundai or Chevy or Fiat for that matter. the car sticks to the road as its glued (in a nice way) and doesnt budge. I took it confidently to 220 and I swear not a single nudge either from the front of the rear. amazing ground clearance and kick ass shock abosorbers.

Final Words About two months ago i was roaming around with cash for a new car. checked everything thing but couldnt really feel that spending 5 to 6 lacs on a car and I was getting its worth. I could feel cheap plastic and dirty finish everywhere. Plus the interiors of most of the cars were claustrophobic and dull. all though they had features like steering controls and Auto Air con... i just couldnt picture myself sitting in a dump like that ... and half the time i wont be using those features anyways. so whats the point... i went in to VW showroom. The car he showed me was 1.6 highline and i was sold. after searching the car for 2 months I couldnt believe myself that i was sitting in the car that i would love to pay for and not feel cheated. who cares what others say... a good driver can always tell the difference btw a good car and a bad by just riding it. so if anyone out there is planning to pick up anything else and not a polo. I would suggest pls go and take a test drive once and dont go on reviews. cos lot of the time is just people bashing and hating a good thing... so go out there and take a test drive and you will know what this country has been missing in Automotive in past 64 years. the Zen of automation :).

Areas of improvement just increase the rear leg room and it will be a picture perfect car and while you are at it. How about putting in a jazzzy button start :D.

happy motoring
