VW Polo 1.6 MPI MT: The best driver's car sold by VW in India! (SOUNDS BETTER THAN ANY TSI!)

The Polo GT TSI is India's most approachable and most tuner friendly car out there. But before the TSIs ever landed a-foot in the Polo, there was a gem of an engine called the 1.6 MPI. Found in the Polo 1.6 MPI or the Vento 1.6 MPI, this engine is a NA 1.6L 4-Cylinder which sounds super raspy and better than any other TSI found in the modern iterations of the Polo. Wanna know more about this amazing build watch the whole video to find out!

Totally agree. Driving the Rapid 1.6 MPI MT since the last 7 years and still brings a smile on my face everytime!

[@Eren-da-Jaeger]

Totally disagree, if we are not counting GTI, then GT 1.6 TDI is the best one.

Last month stepped into a Škoda showroom to test drive the Octavia, my lord was I impressed. 36L after a few discussions. Time to arrange my finances, I thought. Friends get free and wanna trip, finally the VW polo 1.5 TDI goes in for service and ready for a 2K trip around Tamil Nadu. 12 days on the road and now I can’t think beyond my 80K kms old TDI.. Whether be it the lovely lonely highways of Tamil Nadu or it’s Crazy hills, the polo made realise one thing, I better invest and lock up my money ..

[@drakeignis4322]

A diesel will never compare to petrol. Also it's not always about the speed and power.

[@shree397]

Just so you know all the collector cars in the world are petrol. There are multiple reasons for it, if you don't know the reasons while does not make any sense listening to your opinion.

[@leansnscenes7806]

@@shree397 im really interested as to why you say that is. Can you elaborate?

[@shree397]

@@leansnscenes7806 It's a myth that diesel engine will outlast a petrol engine if both the engines are made out of same material petrol is as long lasting as diesel but usually diesel engines are made with stronger materials due to higher compression required to run them. But petrol is a cleaner engine and maintaining that engine is extremely easy if maintained properly it will last long in the collectors hands without any drop in Performance and will not require much servicing. Diesel engine is infamous when it comes to long term storage.Diesel requires a lot more care-taking even while storing and also while running. Petrol and diesel engines make power differently. petrol is more volatile and easily ignited with a spark. Diesel less so and uses compression to ignite it’s air/fuel charge requiring heavier parts (blocks, pistons, rods…) to be reliable. In the end diesels end up typically being heavier with a shorter useable rpm band, nothing like what people are used to in sports cars. Most modern diesels are turbodiesels to extend the powerband and take advantage that they essentially use detonation for ignition rather than being limited buy it and you can force more power out of many of them reliably, making a lot of them quite impressive. In the end, the shorter RPM band, heavier weight and more difficult packaging just doesn’t work well in a sports car. World's best cars/legendary cars or all petrol engine cars, be it RX7/8 rotary,Lambo Miura's transverse V12, or world's most expensive car ever Farrari 250 GTO's 60degree V12 are all petrol. I can go on and on

[@frontmate]

The best engine to fit in the Polo was 1.6 TDI ! Not even the 1.2 Tsi. 1.6 MPI engine is not performance oriented engine !

[@shreyass2447]

Yeah, a joy to ride. Especially when the torque rush kicks in after 2k rpm.

[@adithya.manoj_]

1.0 TSI?

[@sahadevkadri8691]

Yes the engine is perfectly suited for long distance cruising. I can relate as I have a 3 year old Rapid

What suspension can I upgrade it to retain or enhance comfort but improve the handling and reduce the bobbing nature?

[@misath113]

Tein suspension sets is my go to option. And if you want to take it to next level get one that is edfc (electronic damping force control) compatible. This means you can adjust stiffness and softness of your car within a controller placed in your dash (or wherever you wanna put it). Its a bit expensive but you can carry them in hand from countries like uae etc.

[@codenametremor]

Avoid any car that has a DSG as a used one. The general timeframe when DSG issues start cropping up is about 5 years, 2018 car is an ideal candidate for that now. DQ200 is an utterly unreliable and expensive to maintain transmission as far as my experience with VW goes, that's the sole reason I traded my DSG Polo 1.6 MPI for a Vento 1.6 MPI MT
