Polo

Helping you react to whatever’s going on around you, the optional Blind Spot Detection sensor provides a handy LED display in your wing mirror whenever a vehicle enters your blind spot.

And for when you’re done driving and are ready to park, the optional Rear View Camera displays what’s behind the new Polo on your dashboard Infotainment screen. It also overlays guidelines onto the image, allowing you to easily judge your distance from obstacles.

Busy motorway traffic means you constantly have to react to other drivers. The new Polo makes your life a little easier: at the touch of a button, the optional Adaptive Cruise Control uses a radar to sense your distance from the vehicle ahead. The system automatically brakes or accelerates to make sure you stay the same distance from the vehicle in front - it can even bring your car to a complete stop with the addition of the optional DSG dual clutch gearbox.

Thanks to Car-Net ‘App-Connect’, your smartphone, your music, your messages, the internet, and selected apps are available at your fingertips. Simply connect your smartphone via USB to the infotainment touch-screen and your phone integrates seamlessly into your infotainment system allowing you to listen to your favorite music, use your phone, view messages or check the latest news and journey information. It’s that simple to stay connected on every trip.

Only available on compatible smartphones including iPhone 5 and above.

As well as helping you to avoid congestion using live traffic data, you can use the Discover Navigation system with a Car-Net Guide & Inform package to discover new restaurants, attractions, and more. So the next time you’re free on a sunny Sunday, why not hop in the car and see where the road takes you?

Discover Navigation is standard on the Polo SEL.

With a gorgeous 20.3 cm (8 inch) touchscreen with glass display, the Composition Media system is a delight to use – simply touch the screen, just like your phone. Featuring an SD card slot and playback for MP3 and WMA files, the six rich-sounding speakers will be music to your ears.

The Composition Media system includes a Bluetooth phone system for popular mobile phone models and also features a USB connection.

Delight in the details. Volkswagen’s signature “Tornado line” creates a clear contour that sweeps around the new Polo, arching over the front side panels, gliding along the standard four doors and curving around the rear. It entices your eyes around the vehicle, conveying a dynamic sense of movement that will keep you gazing for hours.

Sometimes bigger is better. That’s why the new Polo is longer, wider, and has an increased wheel base. The result? Even more headroom and legroom for driver and passengers alike.

An impressive 351 litres boot capacity means that not only is there space for all your shopping - you can also pack everything you need to head off on your next adventure.

When it comes to lighting the way, the new Polo’s optional LED headlights and daytime running lights shine bright. With a long life and creating a colour similar to daylight, they improve visibility for you in adverse weather – and even better, they’re energy saving.
