2017 VW Polo MKV
Introduced in 2009 and facelifted five
years later, the current Polo is close to ending its product life cycle.
The upcoming supermini will ride on the
MQB platform and, despite gaining different body panels, a new grille and
slender headlight optics on the front end, it will continue to look similar to
its predecessor, as AutomobileMagazine reports.
VW will rearrange the model lineup and
add a jacked-up variant one year later after the launch off the regular hatch.
Moreover, a crossover derivative with increased cabin space and boot capacity
will go against the likes of the Nissan Juke, Renault Captur and Peugeot 2008.
Despite sharing common hardware with the
upcoming Polo, the subcompact crossover will sport its own visual identity.
Power will come from a range of turbocharged petrol and diesel engines, ranging
from 1.0 to 1.5 liters, and all-wheel drive will be offered on top versions.
