“While it isn’t as fun to drive as a Ford Fiesta or as fast as a Polo GTI, it sums up everything we love about the standard car – in a racier package. It is expensive, however.”

“If you want sharp looks, plenty of tech and an undemanding driving experience crossed with a solid gold (ok, now slightly tarnished) image and lots of space (for a supermini), the new VW Polo is going to be tough to beat.”

“The Volkswagen Polo was already one of the best small cars on the market, and the addition of a more modern look and additional standard equipment have only solidified its position near the top of this class. With its roominess, refinement and comfort, it ticks all the boxes that matter from a small car.”

“Volkswagen’s supermini is no longer mini. It’s now a foot longer than the original version of its bigger-brother Golf — and larger than the Golf Mk IV, which sold until 2003.”

“The Volkswagen Polo is a huge seller and it’s not hard to see why. It’s a great all-rounder – smart and roomy inside, comfortable to sit in and good to drive. While it’s pricier to buy outright than some rivals, that’s largely offset by competitive monthly finance rates and strong resale values.”

“The Volkswagen Polo has many strengths. It feels very comfortable and mature to drive, with an excellent dashboard. But it’s not the best in class to drive and it doesn’t feel as premium inside as Polos once used to.”
