The VOLKSWAGEN POLO (2018-22) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.0 TSI 115 SS EU6 SEL DSG AUTO7 is a well-equipped small five-door hatchback, sitting in the UK supermini class between city cars and larger family hatchbacks. It suits town streets and longer journeys, offering a more substantial feel than many small-car alternatives. With its 1.0-litre petrol engine and smooth automatic gearbox, it suits commuters, couples and small families. SEL trim adds a comfortable, polished cabin. Known for everyday usability, tidy handling and strong perceived quality, the Polo feels refined for its class while remaining easy to park and practical to run.
