[@markosz22]

If this is heaven, then I prefer the video quality on Earth :)

[@PKGTI]

@Márk Poósz Actually the video quality looks quite OK to me, although a bit over-exposed...

[@jamie_ar]

[@autogefuehl]

[@orcofnbu]

it must be hell because nobody wants to ride polo in heaven :D

[@FlorianFloimair]

Thomas: The reason why you can only switch the map is that the Discover Media Infotainment system is used. When this is used in the Passat or the Tiguan you have the same situation. You can only show the map in the Active Info Display AND the Infotainment Screen when you have a Discover Pro.

[@dimalkqiku]

Autogefühl it's polo 2017 not 2018😉😀

[@FlorianFloimair]

Dimal Kqiku No it is not. 2018 is correct. Model year starts at week 22 every year. So all models built after that date are Model year 2018

[@monimana6521]

+Andrew Hockings aww! And please never stop watching us ;)

[@leoborros]

I like the way the VW group is diversifying its B segment vehicles. Personally, id still go for the Ibiza for the sporty looks and slightly cheaper pricetag, but for someone looking for something more luxurious, wow, that Polo looks fancy!

[@krisht1613]

As always you are first people who brings us the reviews...cheers...grt work @thomas and crew

This looks like a fantastic car, I have never owned a VW but I feel the new Polo GTI could just be my next car this year.....great review Thomas.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks pal !

Good to have u with us!!

[@aesean]

you are the Wikipedia of car reviewing..

[@autogefuehl]

hehe thanks :D

[@richardmcfarlane-cen6132]

Great MK6 Polo review Thomas! I really enjoyed it and am glad to see that you are politely pushing the move towards using more sustainable materials in VWs. I was also glad to see that you asked them about the SCR urea systems and particle filters. This subject is obviously a very sensitive, yet extremely important topic for VW and one that they need to become leaders in going forward. VW have got a massive amount of work and ground that must be regained, if they are ever to be trusted by their customers again. I am not saying that they do not otherwise build great cars, my last three have been VWs, but I and many others do have a sense of being misled, if not betrayed, by VW and its senior management. The unhappy stuff aside, I am a great fan of what you guys at Autogefühl do and look forward to new videos regularly. P.S. If anyone at VW reads this comment, please keep pushing greener technologies and, above all, be honest with yourselves and your customers. If something endangers the planet further, stand up and protect the future for everyone. In the long run, your customers will come back to you, because sustainability for the environment also leads to a sustainable customer base.

[@autogefuehl]

+Richard McFarlane-Cen very good thoughts

[@soundworks52]

If you have an opportunity can you ask VAG reps about a 1.3 naturally aspirated 3-cylinder based on the EA211 engine design. I can't figure out why they are putting expensive turbo technology in to entry level cars like the Up and Polo especially now as forced induction engines are seem to be polluting. A 85 to 90ps 1.3 non-turbo engine would be cheaper and lighter than the 1 litre TSI and would serve as a good low cost engine for Up, Mii, Citigo, Polo, Ibiza, Fabia, Rapid and even poverty specification A1

Well done Thomas...as always

[@josephgambino7527]

Thomas - Once again - an outstanding review. It is a shame the Polo is not available here in the States - it would be a great addition to VW's portfolio of vehicles. It is a stylish compact car with enough 'get-up-and-go'; plus features and all at great entry price. I also want to express my appreciation for the terrific effort by each of the VW executives you interviewed during the course of this review for communicating in English. It is at times difficult enough to be part of the interview process in one's own native language but even more so in one's second or even third language. My thanks to you Thomas, the Autogefuhl Team especially the team's creative videographers and the folks at VW for all contributing to a solid informative review. Joe

[@autogefuehl]

highly appreciated!

[@blabla24]

Thomas, you are a great car reviewer! and this review was not exception, informative and detailed as always! Greetings from Israel

[@autogefuehl]

+blabla24 thanks! Greetings back to Israel :)

[@caraddicted6794]

The biggest progress of the new VW Polo are the design of the front and of the interior.😍 Furthermore I really enjoy the infotainment and assistant system options. Of course my favorite Polo is the GTI with 200hp but I think the R-Line package also fits perfectly. Maybe the new Polo gets the best GTI because this car is very compact. Can`t wait for the driving part XD

[@autogefuehl]

always appreciated!

[@jandewezel]

Nice review, nice car too. My wife loves it.

[@autogefuehl]

thank you, father.

[@christill]

I would be in the camp of higher spec Polo vs lower spec Golf. I like the colour in the interior. Manufacturers should be more adventurous with interior styling for the less expensive cars. I also like how the infotainment screen is the same height as the active info display. It reminds me a little bit of the Mercedes saloons with the two screens.

[@mpc007]

I agree. Visited my VW dealership today to ask about the 1.5 TSI with 150hp, because I'm interested (if the price will be right, Ibiza already got it for a nice price). Dealer said it would come with the modelyear 2019 update in May.

[@MikaElf]

Great review Thomas! R-Line looks very good outside, but what I really like is interior of new Polo. That's awesome!

[@autogefuehl]

Another good videos guys and very much enjoyed the in depth interviews, interesting and I guess the dash feels better than the new SEAT Ibiza? Wonder what the price for a same spec will be for the 2 in the UK.

[@autogefuehl]

Great review - wish we got these in the good old USA. I like the wavy lower front light - distinctive and reflects more light? Very cool car.

Thank you for doing these videos in English. When I read your KZbin channel name, I thought it will be in German and won't understand anything. Was a nice surprise.

[@autogefuehl]

[@kraenk12]

Gotta love those those pistol shaped P LED lights at the back. Very stylish.

[@MrVoayer]

The amount of technology packed in a car that size is unprecedented ! This time VW raised the bar sky high ! Unfortunately, the price as well ! Nevertheless, this is a very thorough and very detailed video ! Great job !

[@carloivanmx8495]

I'll buy this car as soon as it's available 😍

Curved daytime running lights look nice

[@nrnccrdn]

I always giggle when I see Thomas doing weird stuff like the "yo" part here. Usually whenever I hear Germans speaking English they sound funny and I kinda like it. :-) Great videos, keep them coming!

[@autogefuehl]

+Rade Narancic 😁

[@gordonbennett6057]

The best detail as always! I quite like the interior trim colour aligned to the exterior, and the infotainment beside the Active Info Display. Shame hard plastics on door panels, and basic cup holders. I love contrasting and bright interiors. The styling looks like they're getting ready to soon introduce us to a jacked-up Polo SUV mini-Tiguan-thing! Don't like the excessive R-Line/GTI 'mask' chin-spoiler, but would want the LED's. No particulate filter on the CNG's TSI engine! Many thanks Thomas.

[@autogefuehl]

+gordon bennett cheers!

[@iantaf5559]

Thank you to a shiny-suited Thomas for a great insight in to the new Polo. Be interesting to see how it sells against the Golf. Can't wait for Ajay's test drives.

[@bakes246]

Hi you never spoke about the fogs lights what are they led and halogen

[@SROBSTAD]

What are the innermost lamps in the LED headligt units for? I have never seen them turned on? :)

[@web0z]

Is it true that vw is no longer supporting google maps for there sat nav?

[@tobuo]

"Here in autogefool" :D

[@czmichiel]

Does anyone know how the inside will look with the r-line package? The dealer had no clue yet. I did order the r-line package but they will deliver in April... i guess it will be a surprise.

[@matdabe]

Great video, as always 😃 Couple of questions. Are the internal reflectors of the headlights fake (they didn't turn on even on high beam)? Where are the roof handles? And almost no fabric on the doors trim...Cost cutting?

[@autogefuehl]

+matdabe good question

[@oguzhantt]

Thank you for the first detailed review of the vw polo! Also i should say that this car is very logical to use inside the city. Small dimensions nearly comparable trunk space to c segment cars! The only downside of the car is manual handbrake takes too much space and the plastic trims along the dashboard!!

[@autogefuehl]

+oguzhantt 👍

[@ricarloloots6926]

When is the one with the R-line seats and R-line steering wheel coming out?

[@acericoniadak]

Hi, Thomas very good review, but I have two question . 1 . The rear of the car resemble the rear of the Audi Q2, did the VW corporation will move for future cars like this design with square rear light ? 2 . I notice when you change the infotainment in middle screen the virtual cockpit change at same time (see at 08:24 to 08:30 ) and you forget to ask this question. Is this a bug or they make for purpose ?

[@autogefuehl]

yeah that design language becomes common. We did record the infotainment interview before tbh, so I couldnt ask anymore. We ll resolve this question on the next driving event !

[@pioleq]

i totally see ditching my mk7 gti for polo gti as a next one

[@rendaddy_]

Now we just need a Polo R with AWD and it's my dream car.

[@mikewestwood567]

So strange how this car seems familiar to me, like I've seen it before ... I have! At the fan event in Wolfsburg :) This is such a huge leap forward on the previous Polo, especially the interior which finally looks both premium and futuristic.

[@autogefuehl]

[@freeontour]

Hello Thomas, when will you publish the first complete review on the road? I hope soon now?....

[@autogefuehl]

yeah, shooting in about a week !

[@OscarHernandez-ww2ub]

Hi! This Polo will be available in México? Thank You.

[@PatrickvonMassow]

Thanks for this review! One important question for me: How much torque will the GTI have and will it be reduced when ordered with a DSG (like it was the case for the Mk5) or will it have a stronger DSG transmission that can take all the torque.

[@autogefuehl]

+Patrick von Massow well its the dsg for the 2.0l engine, so that should manage

[@cansincan11]

At what rpm does the emissions cheating software kick in ?

[@johnmaynard5949]

the autopartikelfilter, ich kann nicht mehr :D

[@autogefuehl]

Ist leider weniger lustig als du denkst =) Otto-Partikelfilter ... ist also korrekt. Von Ottomotor, otto-engine.

[@Rhyddid_tan]

Truly one of the best car review channels. Thank you for making these, I appreciate the level of detail provided and crucially done so in an easy to understand way. Well done VW for using more vegan leather in your cars but it's a pity that the steering wheel the part of the car that gets touched the most is still made of cow.

[@autogefuehl]

+Trystan Hughes great to have more people caring!!

[@livc444111]

Thomas, your review are always very thorough but one point you appear to forget is paint quality...Is it applied properly and evenly? How much of car gets a coat of paint (bonnet underside, spare wheel well) Does it look good up close? I am bringing this up as I believe it shows how serious a manufacturer is when it comes to quality and also how much money has been invested in the product. What do you think?

[@autogefuehl]

+livc444111 no I think we would need to some device to measure this

[@livc444111]

Autogefühl a very basic paint thickness gauge cost 25 Euros on Amazon...

[@icreate5529]

Thomas, You should start printing t-shirts that says 'Pump it up..Yo.' I'll be the first to buy it. Too bad they don't offer this model in California but a fun review nonetheless.

[@autogefuehl]

+I Create hehe maybe we'll launch one day merchandise

[@hansnilsson5622]

Regarding not being able to show the map in the active info display and in the center display at the same time: This is a limitation of the Discover Media system, it applies to the Passat, the Tiguan and the Golf as well. With the Discover Pro, you can show it in both displays at the same time.

[@autogefuehl]

I wonder why such limitation exists

[@auletes]

What about the second reflector in the headlight? Fake?

[@kesoebola]

Look good.

Can you have F1 paddle shift? Optionel?

[@jonifif6612]

Does anyone know what is called the color of the first pole?

[@johnthornton9596]

Which spec does the active digital display come included or as this classed as an extra on any trim?

[@autogefuehl]

afaik all extra

[@InteriorDesignAnderson]

Would you recommend this as a first car or would you go for something smaller like a VW UP! Many thanks 🙏

[@autogefuehl]

+BMW ///M it rather depends on what you're planning to do with it. If you need more space the polo would rather be your choice. But if you can wait a bit longer for a more detailed response, wait for our review at the beginning of September

[@A99YearOld]

Thought I could skip the golf 7 facelift model, but would still pay a little more for the golf. The golf is well worth the extra money in terms of refinement, used materials and value. The polo is still a nice car though

[@Kalloewase]

So you would pay around 10k more for a "old" Golf with the same options? I don't think that's worth the money..

[@Kalloewase]

Question to Thomas: You say you are 1,86 cm in lenght. Isn't the seat position too high ? I am 1,87 cm myself and I own the previous model Polo. The seating position in that car is much too high with the seat on lowest setting. I am wondering what the difference is with the new Polo as I want to order one. Now I did a test drive in the new Ibiza and the seat position was perfect in that car, but I am not sure if this is the same as the new Polo.

[@autogefuehl]

that might result from the platform!

[@AmandeepSingh-qe4ok]

take myyyy moneyyyy 💰

[@tofkri]

no brakingdisk at the rear?

[@SDav21]

I actually prefer the dashboard of the old one. Also I think the Peugeot 208 has the best looking interior in the segment.

Nice looking car, great vid Thomas. The strange thing about "German" cars is (especially the affordable ones like VW, Skoda, Seat) that the outside styling is very nice, good development there over the years, but if you go check out the interior: it's okay but on the other hand kind of boring. Not ugly, don't get me wrong, but a little bit boring. Too decent, not playful enough. There are brands out there, which do that quite better than Volkswagen..

[@NAKMUAYACADEMY]

Very curious your opinion which would be top 3 models of polo and is it really worth getting golf since polo is so nice ? As well which one would be all round best Polo / fiesta / Leon?

[@autogefuehl]

As for the small cars, this video might help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/apSkZKiampKXmKs

[@marceldutu9865]

Always excited to see the new videos from Autogefuhl! I have a question about this one: particle filter on a petrol? Will it be usable on short distances or will you have to cover motorway miles just like with diesel so that the particle filter doesn't clog up and cause very expensive repairs? Furthermore, from what I read on the subject, even with ideal usage, particle filters on diesel still need changed after 100k miles costing the owner a lot of money. Will this be the case with the petrol one? Thanks a lot!

[@autogefuehl]

+Marcel Dutu I don't think it will be very complicated, however it is clear that all combustion engines will face more and more measures

[@marceldutu9865]
