ZAP, Zoomcar’s subscription service, will let you own a VW Polo on payment of a set monthly fee

  • Scheduled maintenance, road tax, insurance and other ownership-related expenses will be taken care of by VW and Zoomcar.

  • Only the Trendline petrol variant of the Volkswagen Polo is available under this subscription service.

  • Polo Trendline petrol is currently priced at Rs 5.71 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).

Zoomcar in association with Volkswagen India is offering the Polo hatchback on a subscription basis across select cities. Under this, subscribers can drive away with a brand new Polo by paying a monthly subscription fee while Volkswagen and Zoomcar will take care of the down payment, maintenance and the insurance during that period. The minimum subscription period starts at six months and maxes out at three years. Neither Zoomcar nor VW have confirmed if the Polo GT is covered by the initiative. However, the ZAP website lists only the Polo Trendline petrol variant which is powered by a 1.0-litre engine that produces 76PS and 95Nm of torque.

This tailor-made initiative will free users from the long and arduous process of buying a new car. Buyers who frequently change cars or don’t stay in the same city for long also stand to benefit from this no-frill agreement. Currently, the VW Polo is sold in a choice of two petrol and one diesel engine with prices ranging between Rs 5.71 lakh and Rs 9.72 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).
