look at the best-selling cars in the UK and your notice the Volkswagen Polo is consistently a high performer in fact it’s Volkswagens second best-selling car worldwide after its golf and this latest version faces some stiff competition not only from Volkswagen Group’s Skoda Fabia and certai beef there but also Britain’s number one selling car the Ford Fiesta in this review will tell you what it’s like to drive what it’s like inside and how easy it is to live with and if at the end you’re interested in buying a Volkswagen Polo head to our new car deals section of what car comm where we could save you thousands first though let’s go for a drive there’s a fairly daunting range of engine choices in the polo because there are six petrels and two diesels however our favorite is the 1 liter TSI it may only have 94 brake horsepower and only 3 cylinders but it is the perfect blend of performance co2 emissions and fuel economy it pulls well around town holds its own on the motorway and you just need to work it a little bit harder to keep up the momentum on country roads like these where the Polo really shines is in its ride comfort which matches the very best cars in this class its suspension takes the sting out of potholes and speed bumps even at low speeds and it can smooth out to rougher surfaces at higher speeds the Paranoid doesn’t quite top the Ford Fiesta and set Ibiza with class honours for handling however it does offer precise steering secure handling and plenty of grip which does give you confidence to thread it through a series of tight bends what will strike you to is just how quiet the Polo is when cruising along there’s no excessive road and wind noise and no nasty knocks from the suspension when going over rough surfaces it’s very easy to get comfortable inside the polo because there’s plenty of adjustment in the seat and steering well so no matter what shape or size you are you should be able to find a comfortable driving position which just helps you feel a little more relaxed after a long drive in terms of visibility the front pillars here Lee April errs do allow good visibility and looking over your shoulder is also good however if you prefer parking sensors they come standard on the SEL and if you would like a reversing camera that’s on the options list for every car above the entry-level s model the quality in here is right up with a class best everything you touch feels well built and put together and there’s
plenty of soft touch materials and there’s eight different colors for you to personalize your polo only criticism I would have is the plastic here feels a little low runs all pros get this eight inch touchscreen as standard which handles most of the cars functions which means there’s few buttons elsewhere although good news the air-conditioning settings have a shortcut for just here the system offers good response times and crisp graphics and the way the menus are laid out is logical you can also specify an active info display screen which replaces the car’s analog dials with a configurable screen instead no other car in this class can match the Polo when it comes to front space tall adults will not be rubbing the ceiling and they won’t be rubbing shoulders sitting side by side either and when it comes to little cubbies for your odds and ends there’s plenty of storage just in front of the gearbox ante sighs glovebox and deep door pockets in the back is a similar story if you’re tall listen up because you’ll be able to sit behind an equally tall adult without your knees brushing on the front seat and without brushing the ceiling as with all small cars those sitting three adults side by side will be a squeeze the polos boot is on a par with the said high be fair but is much larger than both Fabia and the Ford Fiesta it’s a really usable space as well because the wheel arches don’t intrude into it and if you go for se or SEL you get this movable boot floor which when in place removes the load lip the polo costs a little more to buy than the Fabia Ibiza and Fiesta however its residual values will be stronger which means PCP deals are more competitive we choose the 94 brake horsepower one liter petrol engine and teammates with se specification this is one up from the entry-level s model and gets you 15 inch alloy wheels electric rear windows and a leather steering wheel as well as the air conditioning and electric front windows which come on every polo no matter which version you go for your get automatic emergency braking as standard which contributed to the PLO being awarded the full five stars in the Euro endcap Craster the Polo is a truly impressive small car it has a good quality interior great infotainment system comfortable ride and is more spacious than most of its rivals for plenty more on the Volkswagen Polo including our full online review head to watcard calm and don’t forget we can help save you money on your
