OSV Volkswagen Polo 2018 In-Depth Review

The new Volkswagen Polo Hatchback is a different animal to what buyers are used to. It’s now aggressively designed, sports the look of a hot hatch, and is finally fun to drive.

It’s like the Polo has taken a walk on the wild side and is even a bit sexy.

With that in mind, it’s still very much a Polo. This means lots of interior space, strong build quality and a good amount of standard kit. As far as supermini’s go, it should be a must on your shortlist more than ever.

OSV takes a closer look at what it’s all about with our 2018 Volkswagen Polo Hatchback review.

I have a October 2014 3dr Polo BlueGT 1.4TSI 150ps to replace it one day with a R-LINE or SEL 1.5TSI "Evo" 150ps manual. Sorry to steal your thunder reviewer but according to my VW main dealer we are not going to get a 1.5TSI "Evo" 150ps in UK as they can't get the Polo (or any of the Seat Ibiza's or Skoda Fabia's) through the lastest European emmisions testing test with the 1.5TSI & will be a DSG only option if we did have it. VW losing big sales to other manufacturers who still offer such a configuration as my BlueGT (4-cylinder engine/manual) - number of doors not a big issue but like 3drs (but that's a industry dead model now)....so to get the configuration of a 1.5T near to Polo size with have to probably go to a non VAG product....shame. sadly my pockets aren't big enough for a GTI Polo just stupid 1.0TSI 115ps or 2.0TSI 200ps nothing in-between & seems not remotely any interest by VW UK to have a Polo with a engine size between the two.

Are the 65bhp and 75bhp engines suffice; adequate enough for motorway speeds, overtaking, and pulling away quickly at junctions?

I am so pleased it has a manual handbrake

i have this car, but strange question to be asking lol but the bit with the radio, where it says radio 1, 2 etc, mine are just black boxes how do i get the colourful logos to come up?

Looks much more like a Golf than a Polo.
