At a time when other manufacturers are introducing new-generation models of its cars, Volkswagen India is content with bringing in another facelift. With mild updates to its exteriors and interiors, and a new paint scheme, this is the ‘new’ Volkswagen Polo GT TSI. It gets the same engine-drivetrain combo and a similar equipment list too. So, is the new Polo GT any different? Let’s find out.
The Polo GT is known for its understated styling, and the facelift version is no different. Sure, it is the quintessential old-school sleeper car, but the design changes won’t wow you. So, you get a tweaked GTI-like front bumper with a black front skirt and honeycomb mesh pattern for the grille. In profile, the car comes with new 16-inch ‘Portago’ alloys, blacked-out ORVMs and a side skirt.
Updates to the back includes a new black spoiler, reworked rear bumper with a diffuser and slightly revised taillights. What’s more, you also get a GT Line trim, which comes with a black roof, door foils and a ‘GT Line’ badge on the front fender. And did we say it also gets a new colour option? Yes, the new Volkswagen Polo GT is now available in the Sunset Red paint scheme.
