Polo is a value for money car

 

Exterior Classy looks, excellent paintwork.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good space for a hatch, comfy seats, adjustable driving position, high quality interior equipment and upholstery.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I have driven around 7000 kms including highways, expressways, ghat roads, metro cities and small towns and find engine performance more than sufficient for maintaining maximum safe speeds on Indian roads, touched 135 kmph on the expressway (could push her more), overall mileage 13/16 kmpl in city/highway with aircon, super smooth gears, downshift may be required for a quick overtaking of long vehicles.

Ride Quality & Handling Good ride quality with correct tyre pressure, smooth handling; though steering grip feels a little hard, near rear visibility not good; so be cautious whilst reversing or get parking assist gadgets.

Final Words A new benchmark in hatchbacks, surely a value for money car of superior engineering and quality. Remember you cant get features like in an Audi for the price you paid.

Areas of improvement Spare wheel should also be 15" alloy, electrically adjustable side view mirrors, leather wrapped steering wheel, audio controls on steering wheel, side rubbing strakes, flatter rear floor.

Fuel economy - 13/16 kmpl in city/highway, 280 ltr boot space, smooth gears, good ride qualitySteering wheel should be leather wrapped and with audio controls
