History
As of 2018, there have been six separate generations of the Polo, usually identified by a "Series" or "Mark" number.[1]
Some generations were facelifted midway through production, with the updated versions known unofficially by an
addition of the letter F to the mark number, e.g. Mark IIF. Some press and enthusiasts consider the facelifts to be
separate models and hence have used the unofficial designations Polo Mark 1 to Mark 7 for previous generations.[2]
Each model of Polo is also identified by a two or three character Volkswagen Group Typ number. Official VW Polo
history describes Mark I to Mark IV using either Roman numerals[1] or Arabic numerals, with facelifted variants
known as "Phase II" models.[3]
The body style has been varied through the life of the car, originally as a hatchback which derived from the Audi 50.[2]
A saloon version was marketed as the Volkswagen Derby.
Volkswagen vehicles built off different platforms have carried the Polo name plate. For example, the Volkswagen
Polo Playa hatchback sold in Southern Africa in the late 1990s was a rebadged SEAT Ibiza which has a different body
shell from the Mark III Polo sold in Europe at the same time. The current saloon is only available in China, Latin
America and South Africa and other Southern Africa countries.
Starting in 1982, Volkswagen sold the Polo in Japan initially through an agreement with Japanese dealership Yanase
that specializes in European and North American vehicles. Of all Volkswagens imported into Japan, only the Polo and
the Golf, until 1997, complied with Japanese Government dimension regulations until the introduction of the VW Up!
in 2012.
Performance versions and motorsport

Volkswagen helped consolidate the preeminence the so-called hot hatch genre of high-performance hatchbacks with
their Golf GTI in 1975, and has produced a number of performance versions of the Polo. The first of these was the Polo
GT version of the Mark 1F.
The Mark II and IIF were available as supercharged G40 models. The GT G40 with its 1.3 litre 85 kW (114 hp) could
reach 100 km/h (62 mph) in 8.1 seconds from standstill and had a maximum speed of 196 km/h (122 mph). It was
used by Volkswagen to set a number of world endurance speed records, such as the 1.3 litre class records for speed
over 24 hours and speed over a distance of 5,000 km (3,100 mi).
The fastest version of the Mark III on the United Kingdom market was the 17-valve h 74 kW (100 PS) model. A 88 kW
(120 PS) Polo GTI model was also produced, but only in a limited edition in Germany, and this was the first time the
GTI label had been used for a Polo. A GTI version of the Mark IIIF Polo, with a 92 kW (123 hp) 1.6 litre petrol engine
was also produced.
In 2004 Volkswagen Individual, a specialist division of Volkswagen, produced a limited number of (Mark IV Polo)
Club Sports with a 1.8T 132 kW (177 hp) engine. Available only in Germany, this was based on the one make racing
series Polo Cup Racer hatchback. The Club Sport came with a roll cage inside the vehicle and Recaro racing seats as
standard.
A GTI version of the Polo Mark IVF was launched in 2006. This features styling similar to that of the contemporary
Golf GTI and a turbocharged 20 valve 110 kW (150 bhp) 1.8 litre petrol engine. It has a 0–100 km/h time of 8.2
seconds and a top speed of 216 km/h (134 mph).
Volkswagen Individual have also engineered an even faster Polo called the Polo GTI Cup Edition. Available with the
same 1.8T engine, albeit with 130 kW (180 bhp), its claimed 0–100 km/h is 7.5 seconds and it has a claimed top speed
of 225 km/h (140 mph).
Volkswagen Racing in South Africa rallied a four wheel drive Mark IVF Polo which shared some components with its
sister World Rally Championship (WRC) Škoda Fabia; the S2000 has a 2.0 Litre 191 kW (256 hp) (260 bhp) engine.
Mark IV Polos have been entered into the Junior World Rally Championship (JWRC).
The Polo also competed in the Russian Touring Car Championship.
There have been a number of one make race series for the Polo, starting with the G40 Cup for Mark II and Mark IIF
G40 versions. The current Polo Cup championship for 78 kW (105 bhp) cars is a support race at rounds of the
Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters. Comfort line 1.2 CC engine 2014 Volkswagen Launched the new face lifted polo

The first Polo was effectively a rebadged version of the Audi 50 hatchback launched in August 1974.[2] The Audi 50 was
discontinued in 1978 as Audi concentrated on larger luxury models. The Mark I and Mark II versions of the Polo were
then standalone models in the Volkswagen range.
With the expansion of the Volkswagen Group: Audi (in the 1960s), SEAT (in the 1980s) and Škoda (in the 1990s) were
acquired, and the platform used for the Polo was shared with other models.
The Mark III Polo shared its platform with the SEAT Ibiza Mark II. The Ibiza was actually launched before the Polo
and shared essentially all its mechanicals, the dashboard and other interior components, although there were no body
panels shared between the two cars. The saloon and estate versions of the Mark III Polo were actually rebadged SEAT
Córdoba models and had no body panels in common with the Polo hatchback. The SEAT Inca and Volkswagen Caddy
vans were also based on this model. The Volkswagen Lupo and SEAT Arosa were also based on a shortened version of
the Mark III Polo platform.
The Mark IV Polo continued this trend of platform sharing, with the SEAT Ibiza Mark III and Škoda Fabia Marks I &
II both being developed on the same platform and featuring several of the same engines.
The 2009 Mark V Polo is developed on the newest platform PQ25, the same platform used in the SEAT Ibiza Mark IV
that was launched in 2008 and the Audi A1.
Body styles
The first Polos were hatchbacks, with the saloon being marketed as the Volkswagen Derby.
On the arrival of the Mark II model, the saloon was renamed the Volkswagen Polo Classic and the "conventional"-
styled hatchback (with a sloping tailgate) was renamed as a coupé, the Volkswagen Polo Coupé. Unusually, the
third (and new) body that was actually marketed as the Volkswagen Polo Hatchback was closer in concept to a
small estate, albeit with exactly the same wheelbase and floor pan as the coupé instead of the (longer) saloon. This
latter version, also known as the squareback (in the original German brochures, "steilheck", literally "steep tail")
amongst other nicknames was the most popular in virtually every country
where the Polo was sold. Despite the differences in silhouette and target
market segment, all body types were 2- or 3-door only.
From the Mark III onwards, the range was more straightforwardly
conventional, including unambiguous "saloon", "hatchback" and "estate"
models, with only the hatchback offering both 5-door and slightly shorter
3-door models (both still with quite vertical tailgates, the "coupé" variation
having been retired), the others being 4/5-door only and increasing in
length from hatch to saloon to estate. Mark II Polo "Wagon" shape

one of which was badged as a coupé

5-door estate (Mark III, Mark IIIF)
5-door crossover SUV-style (2WD) hatchback (Mark IV, Mark IVF, Mark V)
Mechanical layout
The Polo is a compact car, with a traditional transversely mounted engine and front wheel drive. Mark I Polos only
came with four cylinder petrol engines, but for the Mark II, a diesel engine was offered for the first time, although only
in certain markets, others having to wait until the launch of the Mark III. The current range includes a variety of three
and four cylinder petrol and diesel engines.
Early versions used four speed manual transmission, whilst the current car is available with either six speed manual or
five speed automatic transmission. The suspension system on all models uses a fully independent MacPherson strut
front suspension, and a Twist-beam rear suspension. Most models use disc brakes at the front and rear drum brakes,
although some recent models have all round disc brakes.
First generation (Typ 86; 1975–1981)

The first-generation Polo, a rebadged version of the Audi 50, was
introduced in 1975 and was produced until October 1981.[1][4] By Volkswagen Polo Mk1 (86)
1979, 500,000 Polos were produced worldwide.[1] It shared the
internal designation Typ 86 with the Audi 50.
The differences between the Audi and Volkswagen models were

minor, with the Polo being cheaper and much more basic. The two
cars were initially sold alongside each other, but the Audi 50 never
sold as well, and was withdrawn in 1978. The Polo was
manufactured at the Volkswagen plant in Wolfsburg.

The Mark I Polo and Derby were facelifted in 1979. Sometimes referred to
as the Mark IF, the facelifted model featured plastic bumpers, a different
front grille and a revised dashboard. The round headlights of the Derby
were replaced with square ones, bringing it into line with the similar (but
larger) Golf-based Jetta saloon.

Second generation (Typ 86C; 1981–1994)

The Polo Mark II (or Typ 86C) was introduced in October
1981,[1][5] with the major change being the introduction of a third
Volkswagen Polo Mk2 (86C)
body style with a steep (almost vertical) rear window, in addition
to a version resembling the original Mark I shape with a diagonal
rear window. These two body styles were called the Wagon (in
some markets) and Coupé respectively, although in fact both were
three-door hatchbacks, and in some markets the Wagon
designation was not used, with that car being simply the
"Volkswagen Polo" without a suffix. The sedan version was now
called the Polo Classic, and the Derby name became extinct.
Production was expanded to Spain in the mid-1980s following Overview
Volkswagen's takeover of SEAT. By 1983, the millionth Polo was Also called Volkswagen Derby
produced. The second million were produced by 1986.[1] Production 1981–1994
The Polo competed in the supermini sector with its new rivals like Body and chassis
Austin Metro and Ford Fiesta and it was one of the largest Body style 3-door hatchback
superminis in production at this time, meaning that it was close to 3-door estate
larger cars including the Ford Escort in terms of size, space and 2-door saloon (Derby)
price. Within two years of its launch, however, it was faced with
Platform Volkswagen Group A02
competition from a wave of new rivals, particularly the Fiat Uno
platform
and Peugeot 205.
The Mark II Polo was used extensively by Volkswagen to develop future innovations, for example supercharging with a
40 mm G-Lader supercharger in the GT G40 version. A 60 mm G-Lader would later be used on the larger and more
technically challenging G60 engine used in the Golf and Corrado.
A fuel efficient two-cylinder diesel was prototyped in the mid 1980s with a
G40 supercharger to overcome its small capacity, although this did not
make it to production. A high fuel efficiency model which did make
production was the petrol-engined Formel E (E for Economy), introduced
at the launch in 1981 with a 1.1 litre engine and from 1983 with a 1.3 litre
engine, overdrive top-gear ratio and an early stop-start ignition system
(called "SSA") which would cut the engine when idle for more than two
seconds to save fuel whilst temporarily stopped in traffic, and restart the
engine on moving the gear lever to the left in neutral.
Volkswagen Polo 1.05 (The
Netherlands) Similar systems were later used on the Volkswagen Golf Mk3 and various
systems from other car manufacturers.
It was a popular import in the UK, competing with the likes of the Peugeot 205, Fiat Uno and Nissan Micra. Its
reliability and build quality were among the best to be found on a small car of this era, and in the years since then it
went on to achieve a higher survival rate than many of its competitors.
The Mark II was available with the following engines:
1,093 cc straight-4 petrol (1981–1983)

1,272 cc straight-4 petrol (1981–)
1,043 cc straight-4 petrol (1983–)
1,272 cc straight-4 petrol with a Pierburg 2E3 carburettor producing 55 hp (41 kW; 56 PS) (1983–1990). Coupe S
in UK, GT elsewhere in Europe
1.272 cc straight-4 petrol with multi-point fuel injection producing 74 hp (55 kW; 75 PS) (1991–). GT version
only.[6]
1,272 cc straight-4 supercharged petrol with 83 kW (113 PS). ( G40 version 1987 only)
1.3 L straight-4 diesel (1986–)
1.4 L straight-4 diesel (1990–)
However, some engines were only available on certain markets. For example, the British market never received any
diesel-engined versions of the Polo, even though the diesel engine was already available on many similar cars by the
end of the 1980s, namely the Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Nova and Peugeot 205.
The Mark II Facelift (referred
to as the Mark IIF, also
erroneously known as the
"Mark 3") was a far-reaching
facelift of the MkII, including a
re-skin of the bodywork,
launched in the autumn of
1990 Volkswagen Polo Mk2 facelift 1990. The new look saw square 1990 Volkswagen Polo Mk2 facelift
headlights, enlarged and rear
reshaped tail-lights, bigger
bumpers and a new interior (dashboard and door trim).[7] The three
different body styles were maintained. As well as the cosmetic differences, under the skin the car received
modifications to the chassis, suspension and brakes. The new Polo still had the 4 cylinder engines but now as well as
the carburettor 1.0 L, a fuel injection model was available with single-point injection and all engines came with a
catalytic converter as standard to combat tightening European emissions regulations. The saloon was only produced in
Spain, and production ceased in 1992 due to disappointing sales.
At the time of launch of the Mark IIF Polo, the highest performance model
was the Polo GT. This featured a multi-point fuel-injected version of the
1,272 cc engine, and a top speed of more than 100 mph. This produced
75 bhp (56 kW) and had a quoted top speed of 172 km/h (107 mph). 0–60
figures stood at 11.1 seconds. Defining features of the GT include red piping
in the bumpers, black overhead cloth, a rev counter and a red "GT" badge
in the grille. This was succeeded by the launch of the G40 in May 1991,
displacing the GT as the most powerful Polo at the time, with a top speed of
Interior
around 120 mph – rivalling the likes of the Ford Fiesta XR2i, Peugeot 205
GTI and Renault Clio 16v. The GT squareback was discontinued in 1992
due to poor sales in comparison with the coupé version.
Soon after the launch of the Mark IIF, another sporting model was added to the range — a new version of the
supercharged G40, now as a full production model in all markets rather than the limited batch of Mark II G40s. As
with the previous model, Volkswagen Motorsport modified G40 Cup cars were sold for racing in a one-make series,
the Volkswagen Polo G40 Cup. Features that define the G40 from other Polo models at the time (on top of the GT)
include a bee-sting aerial, BBS cross-spoke alloy wheels, Le Mans interior trim and front and rear red "G40" badges.
Third generation (Typ 6N/6KV; 1994–2002)

The Mark III Polo or Typ 6N, (sometimes referred to as the
"Mark 4" by enthusiasts as it is the Polo's fourth guise) appeared
Volkswagen Polo Mk3 (6N/6KV)
in 1994,[1][8] and was a completely new model (on a new chassis),
available as three- and five-door hatchback versions, the latter
making VW the last major European manufacturer to finally offer
rear side doors in this class. It shared its platform with the SEAT
Ibiza Mark 2. This platform actually used the floorpan of the
Volkswagen Golf Mk3 (a multitude of mechanical parts and all of
the suspension components were interchangeable among the
three models). Although the dashboard and a number of
mechanical components, including engines, were shared with the
Ibiza, outwardly the two cars were different, with no shared body
panels. Overview

Also new to the range were 1.4 (8-valve or 16-valve) and 1.6 petrol
engines as well as a 1.9 diesel (with or without a turbocharger).
The saloon and estate versions of the Mark III, which debuted in 1995, were essentially rebadged version of the SEAT
Córdoba, which were launched early in 1994. They were referred to internally by Volkswagen as the Typ 6KV, and
shared body panels with the SEAT model rather than the Polo hatchback models, with some cosmetic alterations such
as new rear and front bumpers and headlights. The Volkswagen Caddy 9K van also shares the same platform and
front-end styling as the 6KV models.
The later Volkswagen Lupo and SEAT Arosa city cars were based on a shortened version of the Typ 6N platform, and
shared many components.
The car was available with the following engines:

The facelifted Mark III Phase
II[3] (or Typ 6N2; sometimes
referred to as the Mark IIIF or
"Mark 5" by enthusiasts) was
released in 1999.[1][9] The
hatchback models featured
Volkswagen Polo Mk3 facelift
updated styling including new
headlights and bumpers and an
all new interior based on that of the Lupo. Although the car was similar in Volkswagen Polo Mk3 facelift rear
appearance to the Mark III, Volkswagen claimed that 70% of the
components were new. The bodyshell was fully galvanised and stiffened
but not fully redesigned, although some panels were changed. Twin airbags were made standard. The saloon and
estate versions received the new interior, but not the full exterior facelift. Also, the 3 cylinder 1.4 TDI engine was
introduced for the 3 and 5 door hatchbacks as well as a 1.6 16v GTI version. The Mark IIIF Polo Classic is still sold in
Argentina.
Both versions of the Mark III Polo were strong sellers in the United Kingdom and strong competitor for the likes of the
Fiat Punto and Nissan Micra. At the time of its launch, it was arguably the best small car on sale in Europe in terms of
build quality and "upmarket" feel, although its ride and handling was generally not considered to be as good as that of
the Ford Fiesta or Peugeot 206. The 1.4 TDI was considered the best in the range due to its reliability, fuel
consumption, and relative power, for a small engine.

on sale in early 2002.[1] It shares its platform with the SEAT Ibiza Overview
Mk3, Škoda Fabia Mk1 and Škoda Fabia Mk2. The car is all new Production 2002–2009
compared to the Mark III/F, and bears structural resemblance to Body and chassis
Golf MK4 (1J). The rear taillights resemble that of the B5.5 Passat.
Outwardly the most recognisable change is the use of quad round

Volkswagen Racing rallyed a Polo S1600 in the 2003 Junior Platform Volkswagen Group A04
World Rally Championships, winning the Turkish round. The (PQ24) platform
Super 1600 developed 165 kW (221 hp)/215 to its front wheels.
Related SEAT Ibiza Mk3
This version of the Polo was a mixed success in the United
SEAT Cordoba Mk2
Kingdom. It sold reasonably well (though not as well as some
Škoda Fabia Mk1
earlier Polos) but several customer satisfaction surveys by high-
Škoda Fabia Mk2
profile motoring magazines such as Top Gear gave the Polo a very
Volkswagen Fox
low rating.
Top Gear's 2005 survey rated the Polo as the third least satisfying supermini to own, with only the Fiat Punto and
Rover 25 receiving a worse rating. It fell behind most of its crucial rivals, namely the Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Corsa,
Citroën C3 and Peugeot 206.
A saloon version, called Polo Classic, was produced in Brazil, South Africa and China, and exported to the rest of Latin
America and to Australia.
The Polo Classic for the Australian market is sourced from China, making it the first Chinese built car to be exported to
a right hand drive country.[10]
The car was available with the following engines:

There was also a crossover SUV version of the Polo, similar to the Rover
Streetwise, with "off-road" styling, named Polo Fun (Polo Dune in the
UK, Polo Soho in Spain), but despite its appearance the car was never
available with 4motion four-wheel drive.
Facelift (Typ 9N3; 2005–2009 to 2014 in Brazil)

In 2005, the Mark IV was facelifted with new Volkswagen Passat-style one
piece headlights and tail lights, and a different hatch. This facelifted model Volkswagen Polo Fun
is officially known as the Mark IV Phase II[3] or Typ 9N3, and sometimes
erroneously to as the Mark IVF or "Mark 7". Designed by Walter de'Silva,
in the UK, the Mark IVF is available in seven different trim levels, ranging
from the basic Polo E model to the Polo GTI.

Polo Vivo
On 11 March 2010, Volkswagen South Africa announced that the Volkswagen Citi Golf is being replaced by a version of
the Mk 4 Polo, the Polo Vivo. It is available with a choice of two 1.4 litre engines (55 kW & 63 kW)[11] and a 1.6 litre
engine (77 kW).[12] The Polo Vivo is sold in both 3-door and 5-door versions and as a saloon.
In comparison to the Polo Mk4, the Polo Vivo has a restyled front bumper
and grille, deleted scuff strips on the bumpers and sides of the car, and side
indicators relocated from the wing mirrors to the front fenders. This
restyling gives the Polo Vivo some of the elements of the design language
used in other contemporary VW models. It is manufactured at VW's
Uitenhage plant in South Africa, which sources 70%[13] of the Vivo parts

The Volkswagen Polo GTI is a hot hatch version of the
Volkswagen Polo supermini, produced by German automaker Volkswagen.
Mk2 Polo GT G40 and Mk2F Polo G40

The Volkswagen Polo GTI can trace its roots back to the original hot Polo, the supercharged 1.3 litre 85 kW (115 PS)
G40. It was sold in the United Kingdom between 1990–1994 in the form of the Mk2F Polo, but was available during
the late 1980s in limited numbers in Europe in the form of the Mk2 Polo GT G40. The car was expensive compared to
its rivals of the time, and therefore did not sell in vast numbers (Ford Fiesta XR2, Peugeot 205 GTI or Opel Corsa
GTE/GSi etc.). This makes it highly collectible today and according to Top Gear magazine, "a potential future classic".
If kept in good condition, this lightweight and small engined car will keep up with much larger rivals thanks to its
supercharger. This is a technology that has recently found its way back into Volkswagen's range of cars, most
noticeably the new Golf GT 1.4 TSI (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsCBw9J3xxw) which boasts 130 kW
(170 PS) from its small engine.
Mk3 Polo GTI

After production of the G40 ended in 1994, Volkswagen decided to release the first GTI-branded Polo in a limited
batch of just 3000. It was released in 1995 and available only in left hand drive. It featured a 1.6 litre 16-valve 88 kW
(120 PS) engine. The GTI was not available in the UK at any stage during its limited production, this meant that as of
1994 the UK only had the 75 kW (100 bhp) 1.4 16v as a model with any sporting intent. This was the case until 2000
when the Polo Mk3 model range was finally revamped and the first GTI-branded Polos arrived in the United Kingdom.
Mk3 Facelift (6N2) Polo GTI

Between 2000 and 2002, Volkswagen offered two sporting models — the 16V and GTI. The 16V came with the 1.4
litre16V 74 kW (100 PS) engine and had options such as 15" Spa alloys and air conditioning. However, the GTI –
available only in 3 or 5 door hatchback body styles in three colours being red, silver and black. Its power plant was a
1.6 litre16V 92 kW (125 PS) engine with variable valve timing. External
changes included a deeper front splitter with honeycomb mesh grilles,
lowered sports suspension (10mm), a subtle rear spoiler, deeper side skirts,
fog lights, and 15" BBS RXII split rims for the wheels bearing 195/45/15
tyres. There were also standard extras such as Climatronic fully automatic
air conditioning, xenon headlights with a headlight washer system, a six-
disc CD autochanger with a GAMMA head unit, exclusive sports interior
with leather steering wheel, handbrake and gearstick, chrome inserts, and
driver aids such as ABS with EBD and an EDL (a system to aid traction).
Polo GTI 2000–2002 interior
Leather and satellite navigation were also optional extras. The Polo GTI
Mk3F however never got the new six-speed gearbox that was introduced in
the smaller Volkswagen Lupo GTI which shared the same engine. Sadly, many of the Polo GTI 5 speed gearboxes fail
due to faulty differential rivets and bearings which can only be rectified through a rebuild.
Mk4 Polo GT
With the introduction of the 2002 Polo, the GTI model was discontinued and was given no direct replacement. There
was however a GT model produced, featuring the same 1.9 TDI 96 kW (130 PS) engine found in the popular Škoda
Fabia vRS and SEAT Ibiza FR TDI as well as a six-speed gearbox. Although this model had a relatively slow 0–
100 km/h (62 mph) time of over 9 seconds, it did have impressive mid-range clout with torque figures of 310 Nm
(228 lb-ft). This gave the GT very impressive in-gear acceleration, meaning it could make light work of overtaking as
well as pull itself out of corners on twisting B roads with ease whilst returning fuel economy of over 50 mpg.
Mk4 Polo GTI

It was not until late 2005, after yet another Polo revamp that the GTI was
reintroduced. This time it boasted a 1.8T 110 kW (150 PS) engine which
had been used in everything from the Mk4 Volkswagen Golf GTI to the
Audi A6. Despite the impressive figures this new model lacked the
standard features of the Polo GTI Mk3 with xenon headlights not even on
the options list and fully digital climate control only being an expensive
option. Although faster than the 2000–2002 Polo GTI, the newer model
was also seen as being off the pace when compared to its rivals, most of
which are now nudging 150 kW (200 PS). In Europe this led to VW quickly Polo GTI 2005–2009 leather interior
beefing up the Polo further to create the Polo GTI Cup Edition, which was
tuned to around 130 kW (180 PS) and featured more aggressive styling.
The Polo GTI Cup Edition has 177 bhp, 29 bhp more than both the standard Polo GTI. The standard Polo GTI model
completes 0–100 km/h in 8.2 seconds, but in the Cup Edition completes 0–100 km/h 7.5 seconds[28] This model was
also featured in 'Mighty Car Mods', the famous YouTube car show, where it is quickly sold as it was described as not
having any 'soul'.
Mk5 Polo GTI

The Mk5 Polo GTI was launched at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show. The new GTI is powered by VW's award-winning[29]
130 kW (180 PS) 1.4 litre TSI engine (adapted from that used in the current Scirocco) which uses both a supercharger
and turbocharger to provide torque throughout the rev range.[30] The Mk5 Polo is also 7.5% lighter than its
predecessor and with a 22 kW (30 PS) increase in power over the previous generation Polo GTI it accelerates from 0 to
100 km/h (62 mph) in 6.9 seconds. The Mk5 Polo also includes features not found on previous generation Polos such
as touch screen satellite navigation and a seven-speed version of VW's DSG gearbox as standard.[31]
Mk5 Polo GTI facelift

The Mk5 Polo GTI facelift was launched in 2015. It featured a new 1.8 litre turbocharged engine which had been
developed by Audi. It produced 190 bhp and was capable of sprinting from 0-60 mph in 6.7 seconds. It came standard
with a six speed manual gearbox, unlike its predecessor which was only available with a 7 speed DSG.
Mk6 Polo GTI

The Mk6 Polo GTI was launched in 2017.[32] It features a slightly detuned
version of the 2.0 litre turbocharged engine from the Mk7 Golf GTI. It
produced 197 bhp and was capable of getting to 60 mph in under 6.7
seconds. It will be launched with a 6-speed DSG dual-clutch transmission,
a manual transmission will arrive later in 2018. Along with the engine, the
GTI version came standard with lowered suspension, GTI badges, GTI
bumpers, 17 inch wheels, sill extensions, bigger brakes, red brake calipers,
twin exhausts, tartan seats, a sport steering, red stitching, and a roof
Mk6 Polo GTi
spoiler. You also get GTI LED headlights, 18 inch wheels, and adaptive
dampers as options.
Sales
The sales of Volkswagen Polo set a benchmark for Volkswagen which sold more than 12 million cars globally so far, in
February 2010 Volkswagen produced the 11,111,111th Polo worldwide at the celebration event of its first production
anniversary in Pune, India.[33] In 2010, its first full year on sale in the United Kingdom, more than 45,000 units were
sold. It was the UK's sixth best-selling new car.[34] This was a record for Polo sales in the UK; never before in more
than 30 years on sale in the UK had any version of the Polo managed to finish among the top ten best-selling cars.Here
is the list of Volkswagen Polo unit sales globally[35]
The Polo Vivo is consistently the top-selling passenger car in South Africa.[36][37]
