VOLKSWAGEN POLO : the best hatch

for 1.5 TDI Highline

Hello everyone !! Today I would like to share my opinions about my VOLOKSWAGEN POLO. I purchased this car in may 2015. Volkswagen polo was my dream car since it was launched in India it was my first love in cars. I bought the 1.5 highline variant. It costed me approximately 9.35 lac after the discount. I have driven it approximately 44,000 km's. I got the night blue color which looks very beautiful if you want to get this color polo then in latest model of polo it is not available. Well overall in my personal opinion I think that VW polo is a value for money package. According to me with each every year polo has evolved a lot. Its engine has remained the same since it was launched, but the major changes have taken place in its styling the infotainment system which I personally think are a great improvement making the car much more beautiful powerful. Why I love this car is because it has got a very powerful bigger engine than its competitors such as i20 baleno. Although it lacks some features such as cruise control (this feature is available in the latest model of this car) key less entry push button start but still for me overall it is an excellent package. 1 EXTERIOR : Polo has got perfect exterior. It has great looks, it looks quite sporty somewhere it is also elegant. When we look at the front of this car the big volkswagen symbol with the chrome line under it looks great. It has got a bit low ground clearance i.e. 165mm due to which it looks quite sporty. The headlights with black color finish looks awesome the rear spoiler make it appear much sporty. the alloy wheels looks gorgeous on the blue color the lines flowing on the back bumper looks marvellous. 2 PERFORMANCE : This car is powered by 1498 cc 4 cylinder turbocharged engine producing a maximum power of 89 bhp @ 4200 RPM a maximum torque of 230 Nm @ 1500 RPM. I have taken it to a maximum speed of 145 KM/H when the air conditioner was switched on. It gives a mileage of roughly 17 KM in the city drives I have not tested it on highway. One main problem is that as the time has passed the engine has became louder making more noise causing irritation. 3 INTERIOR : As we step into the car the first thing which can be seen is the dashboard of the car which looks very well arranged beautiful. The black gloss finish in the steering wheel looks very beautiful the steering wheel has a flat bottom which gives a sporty essence. Since it has a dual tone interior the cabin looks quite airy good. The infotainment system the air conditioner controls look great with a silver strip surrounding them. Overall the interior of this car is great. 4 COMFORT CONVENIENCE : It is one of the most essential part of the car where most of the customers would want more comfort. Volkswagen polo offers great comfort. The front seats are quite comfortable offer great thigh support making the drive more comfortable. The back seats also offer a great thigh support have a nice inclination angle is good for long drives, but there is no armrest at the back seat. This car has great suspension small bumps on the road are not even felt. The air conditioner of polo is great it does not even take 5 minutes to cool the car its controls are easy to access. It also has steering mounted audio controls which work great. Rear air conditioning vents are also present for the backseat passengers are quite effective. 5 STORAGE : This car has plenty of storage the door pockets have big bottle holders the glove box in the dashboard is quite spacious. It has a quite large boot i.e. 295 liters is practically design to hold maximum luggage. I am able to fit 2 medium sized suitcases 2 small bags easily in it. 6 INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM : The infotainment system is nice has a USB port, an AUX port, a CD slot also supports bluetooth. It is easy to access but the problem is that it is not touch screen (the latest model has a touch screen infotainment system). MY FINAL VERDICT I liked this car a lot I would say that you must go for it, it is able to fulfill all my requirements it is also fuel efficient is not even much costly to maintain. It does not has long waiting time. It has almost all features (bluetooth, auto rain sensing wipers etc.) it is very comfortable to make the ride much more comfortable. THANK YOU !!
