VW POLO R-Line v GTI: what's the difference?

[@ashwell7907]

Bro u're the best when comparing cars.. but I prefer the Rline instead of the gti though

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

Thank you 😊🙏🏾 I prefer the looks of the R-Line as well 💯

[@BoThaLe360]

I also prefer the R-Line in terms of appearance, but it seems like you're paying extra just for its looks.

[@iam.benji_]

I’m taking the R-Line.

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

What about speed ?😭

[@jaythelap6089]

I prefer the R-Line on the preface lift, I think the best way is to get the R-Line and spec it up, but on the Face lift, the GTI looks great, the R-Line does not look look R-Liney if that makes sense.

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

😅I get you, the new R-line doesn’t look like how an R-Line should be, it’s just fine

[@makaveliorion]

The pre facelift gti is way better looking than this one hence I would take the rline between these two but give me the prefacelift gti anyday😍

[@clifekomana9409]

This is not a good comparison, the R line polo 7 must be compared with R line polo 8. Polo 7 GTI must be compared with Polo 8 GTI for fairness. or Polo 7 R line with Polo 7 GTI, same Polo 8 R line with Polo GTI R line. Apples with apples and grapes with grapes

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

Firstly there’s no such thing as a Polo 7 or Polo 8, secondly a comparison is to show the differences not similarities so 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@Ray_Mike]

Everytime I see the R-line, I always wonder if its possible to do an engine swap, where someone can take the polo GTI engine & install it into the R-line!

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

For sure it is possible, one swap that i think about alot is fitting an RS3 engine (DAZA) into the polo R-Line

[@SIFISOMOKONYANA]

I love the R line but in blue colore 🎉

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

The blue one is nice as well 💯

[@inflames1882]

i drive exactly this one! absolutely fantastic ❤

[@kennethmbombi3989]

Great content Swangs. The GTI looks very good the old problem is the sunroof

[@JabulaniMtshali-s6y]

I like the drop on the R Line please drop more videos of it

[@mondlimkhanyiswa1206]

Would have been nice to compare the GTI with the facelift R Line. Like to like. But hey, no train smash there's internet. I went on to the VW site to compare the two. I think the looks of the Rline stands out from the GTI, though performance of course will always favour the GTI.

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

Yeah i most definitely would’ve been nicer that way, it’s just hard to come across R-lines of the facelift, if i had access to one i would’ve done it Dankoo 🙏🏾

[@mondlimkhanyiswa1206]

@@MTG_REVIEWS yeah the r line facelift is insanely priced, hence we don't see many of them like the pre facelift. And you get it in a Highline spec (pe sè) with that 85KW auto. The pre facelift you could spec it in a confirline and Highline, and if you notice most of them are Comfortlines rather than Highlines. People prefer Polo life (equivalent to Comfortline) in this facelift, which you can't spec to r line. R line it's a segment of it's own this time, starting from 500K. Imagine 😱

[@H.I.I.T68]

The sunroof is an optional extra and why do you want to know what gear it's in? It's auto and will tell you on the display unless you meant to say you can't see where Drive and Reverse are but I'm sure that should also be on the display 😅

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

It does show in the display but how it was on the pre facelift was better 😂😂

[@ryanhall8304]

What lowering springs can i get for the polo gti?

[@ryanhall8304]

Im Uk based

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

Yeah you can, Check H&R lowering springs 😉

[@ryanhall8304]

Thanks mate, whats this r line lowered to again?

[@HavenHarborHomeStore]

The previous face looked better man but I will still go with the polo GTi ❤❤❤❤

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

Yeahh the facelift doesn’t look as good

[@jeffreyhemingway9578]

Owned both cannot compare 95 hp 3 cylinder to 207 hp 4 cylinder gti every time.

[@ntando141]

For looks I prefer R line but for speed Gti.

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

Most definitely 💯👌🏾

[@edwardmareli5971]

Should’ve compared pre face lift GTI with the facelift GTI. Not a fair comparison to compare Polo R line to GTI if you trying to show the progression of the car

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

I was going for facelift vs pre-facelift

[@edwardmareli5971]

Not on the same spec of the vehicle though.

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

@@edwardmareli5971 nah i wanted the pre facelift Rline V facelift GTI

[@koketsomolapo3964]

Why would you buy a polo GTI without a sunroof?😅

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

Eish mei blah 😅

[@jeffreyhemingway9578]

When you cannot afford a sunroof at £1000

[@inflames1882]

also for better aerodynamic, especially at high speed

[@tnhnews8051]

Now what generation of polo is this? Polo 6,7 or polo 8 ??

[@sbuinfinity]

It’s weird how the GTI is the range topper, but the R line looks better.

[@rapelanggaobapewamonchonya3922]

Not having a sunroof on the GTI is criminal.

[@igrichard9365]

get a polo gti with the sunroof and the 19-inch wheels, that will be a fair comparison.

[@MakingmoveswithJohnnyJ]

I prefer the R line

[@kamogelosedie8147]

where did you do front smah=sh & grab

[@mjnzapheza8350]

Killerwatts on the GTi are the seller for me. In terms of looks you can't please everyone.

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

So if the R-line was as powerful as the GTI which one would you choose?

[@balncemediareabetsoemotsoe6103]

R Line looks better

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

Most definitely 💯🔥

[@jeffreyhemingway9578]

No contest gti .

[@rudyardharrison4177]

They are very clearly different year models.

[@givtharage]

You forget Night drive comparison

I’ll try to do them when i can 🙏🏾

You can't compare Polo 7 Rline with Polo 8 GTI

[@MTG_REVIEWS]

Okay

Can't compare 1.0l 85kw with 2.0l 147kw 😂😂
