Volkswagen Polo [2016-2019] User Reviews

Sales representative explained about the car very nicely and very much impressed. The driving experience it is very smooth with good features and elegant look and interior is having rich look. I am proud of having this car. This German car is excellent in engineering and brings trust to the people for their investment.

Car milage is very much low even in long drive. 14 to 16 is what i get. Totally unhappy with this, when compared to market competitors Apollo tyres which is been provided is of poor performance, when compared to Bridge stone tyres. Headlight could have been updated to LED with day time running lamps.

(3 times same issue in 7 months and 6360KM and ENGINE LEAKING)

Exterior Good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Ok.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Less than 10K KM, engine Oil leaking and engine malware function issues

Ride Quality & Handling ok

Final Words Engine malfunciton

1st time, Elite Bangalore service(Aug/2016). Traveled KM is 3231 when the indication came.

2nd time, Car towing by road assistance(that time I am a vacation with family). The car reached to PPS Motors Hyderabad service station(13/Oct/2016), they find the issue and replaced with new sensors. They took some long trip for testing. they return the car(31/Oct/2016).  Traveled KM is 5634 when the indication came.

3rd time, I visited the Elite Bangalore service station(4/Nov/2016). They have returned the car in a week. Traveled KM is 6360 when the indication came.

So if you want to keep face the problems with your car go ahead and buy. Keep visiting the service center.

Areas of improvement I failed the case on VW. 

I Posting to VW about the problem, they blocked me on Twitter and they will delete the problem comments(NOT ONLY MINE, THEY DELETED OTHER COMMENTS AS WELL). Instead of solving my problem.

StyleEngine malware function, engine Oil leaking

Good: 5 stars for dimensions, single chase, trendlines are really worth for money.

Bad: Less space, fuel economy for petrol variants Its coooool. really juz try it. The main thing is safety so juz pls concentrate and choose a single chase body even if costly n maintenance n fuel economy. advice from myside buy DIESEL variants even if it s trendline in any segment. Cars dimensions will make every customer completely satisfy and worth for money.

Exterior Looks classic.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Classic.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox When speed comes below 15kmpl i have shift gear to first.

In city I am getting: 13-15 km/l. On Round: max i am getting 19.9kmpl. I go spped in between 80km/hr to 100 km/hr on long run. I use cruse control on long road. After tank full i have drived 570 Km still i can go 240 km. That is around 18 KM/hr in city + on long run.

Ride Quality & Handling: Fine Quality of metal. super. When you go faster spped it will spoil the car engine. I have not taken my car for the first service untill now. Next month i have to take.Have to check service cost. Once I have taken car for general checkup . the enginner said the car is in perfect condition.

Final Words:  11months completed i have travelled around 11000 km. no problem untill know. If you want better millage go at speed beteen 80-100 on long run. When you go faster spped it will spoil the car engine. I have not taken my car for the first service untill now.

Next month I have to take.Have to check service cost. Once I have taken car for general checkup . the enginner said the car is in perfect condition.

Areas of improvement When speed comes down it should have some pickup at second gear.

Performance and millage is goodNo faster pickup when the speed is below 15km/hr when in second or third gear.

The only auto hatch that is worth buying upto the 10 lakh price range. The engine is a silent performer. The transmission is lightining fast. It regularly returns a FE of 13km/litre if driven with a light foot. The suspension is tuned for comfort. Its like no other manual/auto hatches for its price. This car shares the transmssion with some of the top spec mercs and bmers - anyone who spends on a petrol hatch between the 8-11 lakh inr range- this is the ONLY choice. The convenience of an automatic, which happens to be the best transmission tech in the world, 0 jerkiness and ample power at your disposal at all times across all rev ranges. To the fact that this car is pitted against the i20, baleno rs, WRV etc - its really a pity. To give some perspective the base model merc A class does not even have a dual clutch gearbox like this beauty.

Have driven 70000 km amazing experience of engine but leg room in back is little less. Pick up perfect no problems in overtaking, ac 5 out of 5 mileage it’s depends on you how you drive on highway 25 km/l in city 17 to 18 although company claims less. Really you should buy it if you are looking for hot hatch inspite of other car because its having 1500 cc engine most powerful in it class. If you keep it with care there is no need to change you car up to 2 lac km because it car it have great realiblity of engine.

1) Build Quality: Polo hasn't aged that bad. in fact it has no issues with its build quality! It has been simply superb! No rattles, except a minor squeaky sound from the air vent, which however is not persistent and isn't nagging either. The suspensions soak in the tarmac(if any) properly and ensure the drive is comfortable.

2) Mileage: I drive my Polo very gently, which translates in a fuel economy of approx 14kmpl in a city and 18+ kmpl on highways with a/c. I guess, that's decent ,I am happy with it!

3) Driving expericne : super handling across city , highways and ghat sections (forest drive=> long drives) 

4) After Sales Service: I'm staying in Bangalore, i feel its overall aberage services (in terms of service and spare management) 

Cons: 

4) Engine Sound(Noise) while in cabin: 4) Engine Sound(Noise) while in cabin: I'm using the 1.5L TDI (Diesel)engine , it makes lot of noise while at high speeds and along with that the noise insulation is not good , can hear all wind blowings.

Superb Build Quality, Awesome Handling, Steering response is fantastic, safest car in IndiaEngine Sound (Noise) is more, Noise insulation is not good, can hear wind sounds while driving 100+

Hey friends I am going to review my best owned car till now . Yes it's the Volkswagen Polo TDI Highline Diesal.I don't know what to praise about the car. Everyone is just fantastic.When I went to the car dealer,they treated us so well due to which my buying experience was very good.The ride quality and driving experience is just tremendous.It just sails so smoothly on indian roads.I feel pleasure to drive this car.There is no competitor of VW Polo who can compete it in terms of ride quality.The looks of this car are nice but not the best.Looks are decent.As I told Thai the performance of this is just phenomenal.Fun to drive this car.Though the maintenance is little bit high but it doesn't matter to someone who wants feel,feedback and excellent build quality and interior cabin for the maintenance is worth of cost.The services are quite satisfactory.Things which I don't like about this car that it has somewhat lack of space inside the cabin.Even some features could be included like projector headlamps with LED DRL's, more no.of airbags and EBD.Overall the car is tranquil.
