Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Volkswagen Ameo
- 110PS diesel engine is a powerhouse! Can be fun and frugal at the same time.
- Solid build quality inside-out, similar to that of its siblings. The Polo and the Vento.
- Most feature loaded vehicle in the segment with features such as cruise control, MirrorLink support and others.
Volkswagen Polo
- Punchy turbo engine
- Solid build quality
- Enthusiast handling
- Clean and classic looks

Volkswagen Ameo
- Cabin best suited for four occupants. Rear-seat legroom and headroom could have been better as well
- Relatively weak after sales network compared to competitors like Maruti Suzuki and Hyundai.
- The Ameo doesn't offer an automatic option with petrol, almost every other car in the segment offers a petrol automatic.
- The 1.2-litre petrol engine feels underpowered, especially on the highways.
Volkswagen Polo
- Missing features like a reverse camera
- Lack of rear seat space
- Priced at a premium
- DSG automatic no longer available
- No diesel engine option
