The Volkswagen Polo needs no introduction in South Africa with the brand selling an impressive number of cars every month, thanks to its affordable nature and acceptable levels of technology & safety standards.
Engines are paired with superb transmissions in the form of six-speed manual and DSGs. The overall built quality, as well as levels of refinement, remain unmatched in the segment and make it an ideal vehicle to own as a daily driver.
Depending on the trim level chosen, the new Polo comes equipped as standard with electric windows, LED headlights, auto start stop, hill start assist, ABS, ESC, multi functional steering wheel and a digital infotainment system with Apple CarPlay / Android Auto smartphone integration to name just a few.
Older models of the VW Polo include a sedan variant with bigger boot space that spawns pretty much the same design cues except for the rear end, of course.
The Polo is built by a marque that values reliability and it does not fall short of that. However, when buying, be sure to do thorough research on the car before signing on the dotted line. With so many VW Polo cars for sale on the market, there are bound to be some lemons. Be sure to opt for a car with full service history with an approved dealership and you should not have any issues.
