Exterior
Made of galvanized uni-body steel gives sturdy feeling. Best in class design. Powerful headlamps for huge visibility at night on highways.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
No fuss, quality and utilitiy based dashboard. Premium quality of plastic and leather wrapped steering and gear stick. 2 DIN music system's screen is having good contrast. Light theme at night is club red which looks youthful. Auto-climate AC is smart and capable in scorching heat. Needs a fair learning curve for indicater and wiper handles as they are on opposite side of normal indian standards.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Engine is just enough powerful for highway speeds and city traffic. Dont expect power like that of ivtech of Honda on lower gears. But as soon as you hit third gear, you can't resisit to overtake. The accelarator is even responsive at 120 km/hr on 5th gear.
Ride Quality & Handling
Polo leads in this segment. Buy car for this particular parameter. Best in class handling: You will not feel the speed unless you look into the speedometer!. The calculation of speed vs power steering sensing is so accurate that car follows your order at any damn speed. ABS and Airbag gives you confidence of safety and accurate handling in emergency braking.
Final Words
Polo is German indeed.
