Our take on this /// Verdict

The Volkswagen Polo Diesel Highline Plus is a compelling choice for those seeking a blend of performance, build quality, and fuel efficiency. While it may lack in rear seat space, the Polo compensates with its solid German build, a powerful and efficient 1.5 TDI engine, and excellent driving dynamics. The engine delivers a balanced combination of performance and fuel economy, making it a great option for both city driving and long journeys. However, the limited rear space and the absence of some modern features might be a drawback for some buyers. Overall, it remains a top choice for enthusiasts who value driving experience and quality over sheer space and feature list.

Price

The Volkswagen Polo Diesel Highline Plus is priced around Rs. 9.31 lakh ex-showroom in India. When you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other taxes, the price can go up to around Rs. 11-12 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. This pricing makes the Polo a competitive option in the premium hatchback segment, especially considering its robust build quality and performance credentials. The value for money is enhanced by the cars durability and lower maintenance costs over time.

Latest Updates

Wednesday, 20 November 2024 08:45 PM The Volkswagen Polo Diesel Highline Plus, which was once a favorite among diesel enthusiasts, has seen a significant change in its engine lineup. The 1.5-litre TDI engine, known for its power and efficiency, has been phased out in favor of newer, more environmentally friendly options. This move has left a void for those who valued the diesel variants performance and mileage. I think this change might disappoint some loyal customers, but its a step towards a greener future.

Friday, 25 October 2024 11:06 AM In recent times, Volkswagen has focused on enhancing the features and build quality of the Polo, even though the diesel variant is no longer available. The Highline Plus trim now boasts a 1.0-litre TSI petrol engine, which offers a balance of power and fuel efficiency. Features like a 6.5-inch touchscreen, rear AC vents, and cruise control have been retained, making it a comfortable and feature-rich option. I believe the petrol engine is a good alternative, but it lacks the unique charm of the diesel.

Sunday, 15 September 2024 05:59 PM The pricing of the Volkswagen Polo Highline Plus has been adjusted to make it more competitive in the Indian market. With the diesel variant no longer in the picture, the 1.0-litre TSI petrol engine is now the focus, priced around Rs. 8.02 lakh (ex-showroom). This pricing strategy aims to attract more buyers who are looking for a premium hatchback experience without the higher costs associated with diesel engines. I think this pricing is quite reasonable given the features and performance.

Tuesday, 20 August 2024 05:41 PM Volkswagen has emphasized the build quality and driving experience of the Polo, even with the shift away from diesel engines. The Highline Plus trim continues to offer a robust build, excellent insulation, and a comfortable ride. The new 1.0-litre TSI engine, though less refined than its predecessor, provides a dual personality – calm in city driving and spirited on the highways. I believe this balance makes it a great choice for enthusiasts who value both comfort and performance.
