Exterior 1.6 Highline is a beautiful car. Great alloys and overall looks great.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Since I sit in the front, it has excellent space.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very powerful engine delivering 105 bhp power. It doesn't seen that one is driving a small hatchback. It gives the feel of driving a larger sedan.
Ride Quality & Handling Very smooth to negotiate in traffic. I drive 180 kms daily from Gurgaon to Greater Noida and back. Just wish it had an Automatic version as well. Mileage I get is approximately 17-18 km/l which, considering the the power and comfort is outstanding!
Final Words I must say that I am thouroughly impressed with the vw polo 1.6. I already own an Audi 8, however found it very difficult to negotiate it in the Gurgaon, Delhi, and Noida traffic. I was heartbroken when a bike overtook me from the left and scrratched the left door and front fender. It is highly stressful driving a big car in Delhi Rush hour traffic. That is the main reaspn I opted to purchase a small car for my daily travel to office, etc. My criteria for selecting the car were: 1). No compromise on luxury, comfort, safety, and drivability. I shortlisted Polo 1.6, i20, and Honda Jazz; However I am glad I purchased the Polo 1.6. It is an amazing car that is fun to drive. Even the music system is great. Icing on the cake is the Mileage. It is consistently giving me 17-18 kmpl and it is only 3 months old. I can only imagine the mileage is going to get better with time!
Areas of improvement The VW Dealorship in Gurgaon (MG Road) is atrocious. I purchased the 2+2 year extended warranty when I bought the car, however I am yet to receive the warranty card. They always come up with silly excuses such as the computer system/network is down, etc. Also, I haven't received my Zero DAP insurance yet from the Company yet even 3 Months after the purchase!
