After 4o Years There's A Polo For Everyone

After 4o Years There's A Polo For Everyone

Date: 2015-08-21
The Volkswagen Polo model range is now complete with the introduction of the 1.0 TSI BlueMotion - the first Volkswagen BlueMotion with a TSI engine, 1.4 TDI engines and GTI with manual transmission. The refreshed Polo was launched in 2014 with the introduction of fuel efficient four-cylinder 1.0 TSI engines and class leading driver assistance systems such as Automatic Post-Collision Braking and Fatigue Detection. For the interior, new instrument cluster and infotainment system were also introduced.

Polo celebrated its 40th anniversary in April 2015. The first generation Volkswagen Polo was launched in Europe in 1975. South Africa had to wait until October 1996 for its first Polo model, which was launched to plug the gap between Citi Golf and Golf.

Polo is one of the world's best-selling compact models with over 14 million units produced and sold worldwide to date. The Volkswagen factory in Uitenhage is one of the two plants in the Volkswagen production network that assembles the Polo hatch. In South Africa, the Polo is produced for both the local and export markets.

With the introduction of the Polo TSI BlueMotion,Volkswagen has succeeded in optimising the already economical TSI engine in the new Polo model range. The improvements to the engine management system have made it possible to reduce fuel consumption by a further 0.7 litres to 4.2 l/100 km when compared to the entry level 1.2 TSI 66 kW.

To figure out which Polo suits your needs the best, contact McCarthy Volkswagen Umhlanga on 031 566 9700 or visit their showroom at 6 - 8 Sunset Crescent, Umhlanga Ridge.
