All new VW Polo
Last Updated:
Revealed early by one of the posters outside the Geneva auto show.
It’s kind of funny…
We are supposed to finally get the Polo in the US. So this is the new sub-Rabbit VW model for us as well.
Competing in a new segment for VW. One they should never have left in the first place: the small affordable car.
They’ll sell a ton of them to the newbie driver/college crowd if they can keep the cost down.
Affordable VW? Somehow I’ll bet VW will manage to get a loaded Polo over the $20K mark.
Good scoop!
But the car itself is another disappointing piece of design again. Totally forgettable.
Affordable VW? How do you do that with German Unions paying almost as much as American Unions??? The only cars more expensive will be those built by the UAW!
VW does small cars nice.

Absolutely.
The cheapest Polo will probably fall about $1,000 below the Rabbit, making it too expensive.
VW has lost touch with reality.
I’m really curious to see how it compares with the new Fiesta.
Nothing special from the side view.
I’d MUCH rather have the new Fiesta.
It looks better, it will certainly drive better, it will be cheaper, and it will without a doubt be more reliabile.
