2018 VW Polo vs 2017 VW Polo - Side-by-side comparison 

Most scientific boot measurement in the history of car reviews

Ciro your boot space measuring technique is very South African lol, I approve

The boot measurement 😂😂😂 ,best presenter ever !

your way of measuring the boot reminds me of Mr Bean 😂

The thing is, I can get a brand new old Polo GTI, equipped with literally anything that the old Polo offers (including LED lights, panorama roof, full park assistant, etc.) for around 17.000€. A new Polo GTI fully doesn't start under 23.000€ and is basically empty. Fully equipped it goes up to 30.000€....thats insane.

I love the quality of this video 👍

This has been helpful, I'm in the process of buying and I'm definitely considering the new Polo.

Awesome review. And giving the prices helps when it comes to shopping around

Another great review C. When you did the measurement - your technique is the same as mine. (From Australia).

sir, i liked the way you compared boot space with hands. :)

Funny how you compare the ENTRY level TRENDLINE with the RANGE TOPPER(excluding the GTI) HIGHLINE model.

It's not fair to compare the trend line polo with the high line polo

The old arms length measurement technique, spot on.

I like the measurements, very nice

That hand measurement made me laugh

I love these side by side comparisons no one else does this on RU-vid

cant wait for my polo coming next week

This video just popped up in my youtube recommended video's. I'm actually expecting my brand new VW Polo 1.0 TSI, Highline in the color orange to arrive at my door within the next hour! I never really liked the interior of the old polo. I had a VW Golf V and it's build quality just felt so much better despite the age. I think the new one is a huge improvement.

Really liked the video. I love south Africa.

Nice video and nice car. You need a pop filter for your microphone on the voice-overs though. The "P"-sounds have some popping.

That was a great sales pitch on behalf of VWSA

I really like the new model.. and honestly, in Germany at least, there are quite a few around and they do look quite good. Just yesterday I saw a black one, probably a highline with the LEDs and nice 17“ or 18“ wheels, that thing is rather sexy :D for a compact car at least

Are the two suit cases going into the trunk? 24,26 size

Comparing a +300k Highline, with extras, and a barebones trendline isn't fair at all. If this was a comparison of the outgoing Highline, plus extras, with a new trendline, would the results not differ as they do now?

Awesome.. When it's releasing in India?? Any idea. Waiting..

@cars.co.zaa when is this new one goina be launched in India? Please.

I prefer the front of the old polo it looks more menacing

Im trading in my 2012 polo gti for this new polo. Is it a good move?

Hello, Cars dot coza, can you also compare this new Polo with Golf IV? This is because I have a feeling that they might measure the same in length though the interior will be roomier in the Polo. Since the old Polo is gonna have the Vivo badge, with no doubt I sense that in a decade to come the Polo will catch-up to the size of Golf VII.

I love the R-line option

That hand measurement... Ultimate thing that happend today in our Earth 🙏🙏

How does this Polo has so white bright headlights and mine is the same but got a yellow beam

Hey do they not have tape measures yet in SA? No need to measure boot volume with hands. Or is this a spoof review 🧐???

How can you compare a Polo Trendline to a Polo Highline though?

Mr. Bean's method for boot measurement 🙃

What is the driveability compared to a golf?

Oil Chamber Breakage Dear Sir, I Have bought my Volkswagen Polo on August last week, 2016. Before 10 days i had hit a speed breaker and next day i noticed my oil tank was leaking and was surprised to see that there were no notification as when i checked the oil it was over and the car engine would have seized. Thankfully insurance covered most of the expense except the engine oil. But some of my friends whom i know also own polo has the same Oil chamber breakage problem as in once case engine got seized and has to pay over 4,00,000 for the same. i have even done some research on internet and i have seen that most people face the same oil chamber problem with polo which i have faced. Now i think i have made the biggest mistake by buying a German car which has very low ground clearance which hits the speed breaker even when driven slow. I think the components used in India is of very low quality as i am surprised to see a company like Volkswagen having issues like these. I really want to know the Volkswagen India's take on this as i feel cheated already as it is a premium hatchback. Thanks, Rakesh

I bought VW Polo in 2012 brand new day today drive like new no problem at all, I do service regularly and that's it.Love this car, new one looks much better but I whant to buy Tiguan or Passat something a bit bigger for family.

The rear light’s too busy though for a small car. Btw, a dead cat on your mic would improve your audio track by a long mile.

the way to measure trunks is the best 👍😄

it's 2018 now, lots of hi-tec features suppose to come as standard.

When you releasing in india ? Bangalore

The new Polo looks good. I like the clean „Bauhaus“ Design 🤔👌🏻

I saw one driving past me on Friday, had no plates, 60 zone driving slowly, and without a trained eye, you would not know that it was the new one. Yes the car is a lot different but not really noticeable. Jeremy Clarkson once did a test when a new focus was going to be launched in a months time, and parked it on a busy road and no one stopped to look at it. Think the same can be done with this car, it is going to be one of the most important cars in South Africa and I'm sure not many people will notice that it is a new one parked next to a busy road. Even when they changed almost everything. Would be cool if cars would actually do that test.

we can simply add a scratchless lamination on the infotainment which can simply prevent the finger prints

I just love VW

5:00 Mr. Bean method of measurement. 😂

Background music name please..

Please also post the time links from the description in the comments section for mobile users

How about comparing the old polo highline with the new polo vivo i think that's comparable but not this. so guys when considering the new polo from the old one ,please compare the highlines with the highlines and the trendlines with the trendlines, make a wise choice

Polo 6C had full LED option as well.

Can you make a video comparing the old polo with the new polo vivo

So the same but with BMW 1 series tail lights?

Can I expected same changes in vento in future

Just too pricey. It needs more for that price. There's plenty competition to choose from that's a less risky purchase than a Polo. High insurance and high risk. It's silly.

Hi Dude what about volkswagen t cross

11thousand grand seems like a lot for an option on a polo, I think you meant 11 grand

That is definitely the Trendline and NOT Comfortline. Comparing the bottom of the range old model with the top of the rang new model (Without taking the GTI into account)

trendline vs highline? Not fair. Plus the old 1 has the Composition media system as an extra which is nearly as big as the new one's screen.

I actually prefer the shape of the previous design haha

Definitely correct time for last definitely

service plan is utter rubbish

Please do the same kind of review when the new fiesta comes

I think it's unfair that the new Polo Highline is being compared to the old Polo Trendline. Would've been better if it were Highline v Highline or Trend v Trend

But equally why is it that even the most fundamental programs we have to pay extra for. Like the parking whatnot and the blind spot ntonton.

Why did he compare the old trend line Polo with the new carat ?

5:15 your measurement make me a happy 😊 smile 😊 thanku

Fantastic camparo side by side..

I like the outgoing one. And 2 doors is a must in a hatch.

nice Video, But the Way u measured the BOOT,?U can DO better, GOOD job, ENJOYED

This is madness, why didn't y'all use the same trim model for both cars? It's like comparing a 2016 Polo GTI and a 2019 Polo Trendline.

New Polo looks awesome but I still won't cough up that much money for a small engine.

2018 VW Polo vs Polo Vivo. That's what the title should say.

those buttons on the new polo are called capacitive buttons

1:14 Full led headlights is an option for the 6c (2015-2017) polo. This is also a comparison of the cheapest 6c (doesn't even have painted mirrors or door handles) to the new highline model (3:20)

Trendline and highline

I like the old one best

Niiice

I just wish VW India will introduce the 6th gen Polo into the Indian market. But given the fact that super mini segment here in India is largely dominated by Swift, Tiago and i20, I don't think VW will bring in the 6th gen Polo anywhere in the near future.

Old Polo Highline vs New Polo Highline please

Just for the heads up, careful on buying LED headlights as it can cause other road users to be dazzled and they're trying to ban cars with those headlights as it's too bright.

Price

The polo is an amazing car but the extra features are so expensive and some should just be included

I love Volkswagen's conservative styling

"This Guy Have a separate Fan Base"

What about the price difference between the two models shown.. err ya.. it's huge

Why do u compare highline(new polo) and trend line(old polo)??? There is big difference between trend line and high line anyway!!!

too sad you can't get anything than 1.0 exept for the gti variant

I’m not convinced the new design looks better

instead of using meter and feet, everyone should start measuring things the way ciro does. its way easier to understand 😎

Doesn't seem rather fair comparing a 6C Trendline with a 2G Highline!

Hate how it says the newer car is longer and wider, but what they show is it being shorter

How can you even compare a trendline with a highline what sense is that honestly

04:41 that was very scientific.

My polo is 1.2 Tsi BMT

You've compared a high spec new polo with an low spec old polo not really fair is it

The South African version of Jeremy Clarkson, brilliant mate!

What for it to depreciate and the facelift then go buy.

what is the currency?

boot measurement ahhahahahahahaha very scientific and accurate
