2010 Volkswagen Polo

Volkswagen Polo will offer seven during the first year of production engines - four petrol and three diesel engines. Five of these machines either brand new or new to the VW Polo, three of them can be paired with a 7-speed transmission is an innovative double-clutch (DSG) as an option, not a 5-speed manual or 6-speed transmission. All engines meet Euro-5 emission limits the new standard.

The gasoline engines, two three-cylinder and two four-cylinder engines, sports a power range extending from 44 kW / 60 PS to 77 kW / 105 PS. New to the lineup are the two most powerful gasoline engines, the 1.4-liter with 63 kW / 85 PS and the 1.2 TSI with 105 PS the noted That is shifted by a standard 6-speed transmission.

Also new to the Volkswagen Polo are all three common-rail turbo-Diesels. These high-torque four-cylinder engines Produce the between 55 kW / 75 PS and 77 kW / 105 PS. A Technology BlueMotion version based on the mid-range power levels of 66 kW / 90 PS Will also debut in 2009; this Polo Will consume just 3.6 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers and emit only 96 g / km of CO2.

All Volkswagens are known for their intuitive user controls and excellent ergonomic properties - regardless of the proportions of their driver and passengers. These are clearly properties of the new Polo too. The entire interior was redesigned. Starting with the "Comfortline", the surface of the instrument panel is upgraded by so-called slush technology (a high-end surface structure that is soft to the touch). The lower cabin section as well as door inserts and interior trim panels may be ordered in either "Anthracite" or "Seashell".

High body quality and passive safety are very "perceptible" aboard a car, especially in the rigidity of the car body. This is quite evident on the new Volkswagen Polo, because the Volkswagen offers an excellent value of static torsional rigidity at 180,000 Nm/° . The reason: a car body's static rigidity is a key technical property and an important and relevant parameter in evaluating subjective parameters such as safety, quality, and of course driving comfort. The high static rigidity of the new VW Polo is attained, among other things, by high-strength and very high-strength steels and the right structural design for loading and reinforcement of body nodal points.
