The model
Read full Volkswagen Polo review
As a hot hatch, the VW Polo GTI provides fewer thrills than more focused and capable rivals, but it’ll cost you a fair amount less than them. Plus, it remains a fine all-rounder, offering tidy handling, a pleasant interior and a comfortable ride for the class.
The trim
If you want your Polo to look slightly sportier, R-Line trim is for you. Coming in at around the same price as Style trim, it also adds larger 16in alloy wheels, dual-zone climate control, built-in sat-nav, front and rear parking sensors, adjustable lumbar support and a 12.5in digital instrument display.
The engine
Our favourite Polo engine gives you 94bhp to play with and offers plenty of shove from low revs. It really shines when you’re driving around town, where it feels suitably nippy, but is more than happy at motorway speeds. It actually makes the more powerful 1.0 TSI 110, that’s available with the R-Line trim, look like an unnecessary expense.
