Polo the european car, the first word that come into my mind is build quality which is similar to that of of tank, believe me or nor but it is rock solid.I personaly own new polo 1.5 TDI, simply saying I am happy with my purchase.I purchased it in 2015 and I have done 20, 000 kms on it .It is a good car and I enjoy driving it.
pros-
• A well-built solid European hatchback
• Clean and contemporary styling, there are no curvers in the car only what you can see is straight lines
• "Big car like" ride quality. Suspension setup ideal for Indian roads. It is bit on fearmer side but it handles the situation very well
• Neutral handling & mature road behaviour, turnes take just a fraction of second
• Fuel efficient range of engines, average that I get is bit low but I can compromise it for the build quality and superb engineering
• 280 liter boot. is also good for caring luggage, and you also get a more powerful engine in the GT model
Interior(Features, Space & Comfort)
One touch button for all power window which not present most of the car. Build Quality topnotch. Lacking rear space comfort
Everything in right place
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Steady at high speed in highway. With 1.5ltr Eng 103ps and good 250nm torque. Pushes the car in low lew range very fine
Ride Quality & Handling
Best in the class. With flat bottom sterring feel like sporty car. Steering response is very good. I felt very smooth at highway at 100 to 120
Final Words
Its the best car to enjoy driving under this price tag. Even base variant come with airbag If you not worried about service cost / resale value and average mileage
Areas of improvement
Head Light is quite average
Clutch is quite hard on Diesel
Touch Screen and reverse camera needed
Partial Engine noise and tyre road noise still coming inside on highway
Rear Door pocket lacks sense
I would say just go and buy this car if you can afford volkswagen services which is 2wice the other companies, thnq
