Volkswagen Polo Sedan


The next-generation Volkswagen Polo sedan will rival the Toyota Yaris and Chevy Aveo sedan. Speculation is that production will take place in South Africa for Africa, Asia and Western Europe. As well as China, Russia Brazil and Mexico. Volkswagen wants to take full advantage of the downsizing trend by offering all three versions to the U.S. buyers, while giving a viable alternative to the U.S. bound Ford Fiesta hatch range and its upcoming sedan model. Powertrains will likely reflect those of the hatch, including a 1.2TSI, a 1.6TDI and the seven-speed DSG transmission. The (150hp) GTI was only offered as a hatchback so that should not change. Hopefully, Volkswagen will include the recently launched Polo Bluemotion with it's outstanding 71.3 mpg rating. Such fuel economy could help many here in the U.S.
