Description

The 2016 Volkswagen Polo 1.0 Match Edition offers a composed, confident drive with light steering and a refined manual gearbox. The small but willing 1.0 petrol engine delivers comfortable urban progress and relaxed cruising on longer journeys, while BlueMotion efficiency helps keep running costs low. The chassis feels planted and predictable, making daily driving and motorway stints straightforward and reassuring.
Practicality is strong for a supermini: five doors, a useful variable load floor and split-fold rear seats make it easy to carry people and luggage. The cabin is well finished with Bluetooth and a 6.5in touchscreen, and the Polo's solid build gives a pleasant, low-cost ownership experience.
