Volkswagen! A brand that needs no introduction, and the POLO

Ts exterior design that doesn't age, looks stunning, the only problem in a country such as India is that motorists, particularly the auto and bike riders will ruin it because they have no freaking clue as to how to drive or ride. when its comes to interior, its no less. The driver's and front passenger seats are comfortable and there is loats of space available, and with the driver's seat equipped with manual height adjustment(which is quite easy to operate, thanks to hydraulics), and steering wheel having the option of rake and reach adjustment, you can relax and be seated in a very comfortable position for some pretty long drives, I have done in the tunes of thousand kilometer stretches without wearing out. Steering wheel controls are a gift. On the technical side, its performance has no equal, Engine is exuisite, It is a pleasure to drive this car, and I have crossed 140 KM mark on highways, I would love to reach the top speed, but the roads do not allow that. Fuel economy depends entirely on your driving style, on a cold morning, if you are running without the AC on, you can easily go beyond the company claimed ARI figures of 17.2 Kmpl, I have reached an economy figure of 19.6 Kmpl on this beauty. Gearbox is adaptive, and it gets used to your driving style, Mine has become so well tuned to my driving needs, that I have absolutely no lag in response whenever I need it, and if I am doing a highway run, it cruises along so well and so quitely that you never notice any gear changes and within no time you will be in the 7th gear. This is it's best feature, no drama, I am wonderstruck. Ride quality has been exceptional, for the Indian roads, the suspension has been tuned very precisely and accurately, I have not faced any roll, and I have driven this car in Himalayas and western ghats, some people complain of stearing being very light in the city, but this has not been my experience at all, the stearing wheel feedback, though artificial, is very accurate and the wheel weighs in quite considerably. Overall its a great car with a great performance. a winner from the VOLKSWAGEN family!
