Version Reviewed : The Volkswagen Polo GT comes with a new familiarity. I Have driven a few thousand kilometers. The Fuel Economy is 16 kmpl. The pros and cons of the car are: Pros: Performance, response, fuel economy Cons: Tyres could have been better Exterior: It is a design that doesn't age, looks stunning, the only problem in a country such as India is that motorists, particularly the auto rickshaw and bike riders will ruin it because they have no freaking clue as to how to drive or ride. Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): The driver's and front passenger seats are comfortable and there is a lot of space available, and with the driver's seat equipped with manual height adjustment (which is quite easy to operate, thanks to hydraulics), and steering wheel having the option of rake and reach adjustment, you can relax and be seated in a very comfortable position for some pretty long drives. I have driven in the tunes of thousand kilometer stretches without wearing out. The steering wheel controls are a gift. My only gripe with the equipment is, could have added a GPS navigation system. Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is exquisite, It is a pleasure to drive this car, and I have crossed 170 KMPH mark on highways. I would love to reach the top speed, but the roads do not allow that. Fuel economy depends entirely on your driving style. On a cold morning, if you are running without the AC on, you can easily go beyond the company claimed ARI figures of 17.2, I have reached an economy figure of 19.6 on this beauty. Gearbox is adaptive, and it gets used to your driving style. Mine has become so well tuned to my driving needs, that I have absolutely no lag in response whenever I need it, and if I am doing a highway run, it cruises along so well and so quietly that you never notice any gear changes and within no time you will be in the 7th gear. This is the best feature, no drama, I am wonderstruck. Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality has been exceptional, for Indian roads, the suspension has been tuned very precisely and accurately, I have not faced any roll, and I have driven this car in the Himalayas and western ghats. Some people complain of steering being very light in the city, but this has not been my experience at all, the steering wheel feedback, though artificial, is very accurate and the wheel weighs in quite considerably. Final Words Love it. Areas of improvement GPS navigating system with a color display is a must
