The Polo has been a long-running model in the Volkswagen family. What started as a supermini, has grown in size and space over time. However, you'll notice that across all used Polos available today, its mature styling and reliable choice of engines and transmissions are constant. The VW Polo is a day-to-day car, perfect to run chores but also suitable for longer drives. When it comes to safety, it has consistently scored a maximum five stars in crash tests since 2019 to 2022 by safety organisation Euro NCAP.
