VOLKSWAGEN POLO (2009-14) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.4 TSI 180 EU5 GTI DSG AUTO7
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The VOLKSWAGEN POLO (2009-14) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.4 TSI 180 EU5 GTI DSG AUTO7 is a sporty, five-door small hatchback, combining Polo practicality with GTI performance. In the UK, it sits at the lively end of the supermini class: more compact and city-friendly than a family hatchback, yet roomier and more versatile than a small city car.
Its turbocharged petrol engine and quick-shifting automatic make it an appealing choice for drivers who want brisk acceleration without giving up everyday ease. The five-door layout suits commuters, couples and small families, while its manageable size helps with parking and urban trips. Compared with standard Ford Fiesta or Vauxhall Corsa versions, the GTI feels more performance-focused and distinctive, though running costs may be higher than those of ordinary superminis.
