The next-generation Volkswagen Polo GTI will
reportedly use the 2.0-litre turbocharged engine from the fifth-generation Golf
GTI.
The new Polo GTI will ditch the current car’s 1.8-litre turbocharged mill in
favour of a 2.0-litre turbo unit, said to be the 200 hp/280 Nm engine used in the
fifth-generation Golf GTI.
As with the current GTI,
the new model will likely feature lowered suspension, revised styling,
GTI-style alloy wheels, different interior trim, and the XDS electronic
differential lock.
The next-generation Polo will use the MQB A0 platform, which made its debut with the Seat Ibiza earlier
this year. The new Ibiza is a significant 87 mm wider than the old model, and
the new Polo will likely share a similar jump in girth.
