Car Profiles - Volkswagen Polo Sedan

VOLKSWAGEN POLO SEDAN

This is totally different from the Polo Classic we had before. The Polo is basically a VW Vento (itself a stretched Polo) from India, a car developed for that market. It hits the notes right including a diesel engine.

The Good: Available diesel engine, cheapest 'German engineered' car locally available.
The Bad: Very basic amenities for the price

Price Range: P840,000-P860,000
Our Rating: ***
