Different generations of used Volkswagen Polo

Volkswagen Polo

The very first Polo hit the roads in 1975, right after the Mark 1 Golf achieved success. The original car had a 2,335 mm wheelbase, making it smaller than the current Volkswagen UP!. Now in its sixth generation, the Polo is one of the brand's longest-running models. Throughout the years, special edition and high-level trims such as the Polo GTI and the Dune have earned a lot of attention.

Sixth Generation (2018 to Present)

The latest generation rides on the MQB A0 platform, offering more boot space and interior room. It also has more safety features, such as traffic sign recognition and frontal collision detection.

A facelift in 2021 added more digitalisation and advanced innovations with a fresh design. IQ.LIGHT matrix LED headlights were added to the front, while IQ.DRIVE Travel Assist became available on higher trims.
