Yes, here you go.

1.) Rear seat space difference between the old and facelifted polo (as the wheelbase got increased by 13 mm)
2.) Real life mileage of 1.5L TDi
3.) Ride/Handling comarision with Swift and Punto.
4.) NVH comparision between the 1.5L TDi vs old Polo GT TDi.
5.) Whether 165mm Ground clearance in polo should be adequate for regular use (as it is now reduced by 4mm).
6.) Performance comparision between 1.5 TDi Vs 1.4L CRDI of Elite i20.

I know most of these questions would be answered in the review but default. But, would be happy if the comparisions are made as requested above.

Sharing a teaser. In short, it's one of the best hatchbacks that I've driven lately. I can only imagine how the GT TDi would be.

Any idea about the GT TDI? On another forum, they were discussing that GT TDI is really good, and why haven't VW updated their website. But not being a member there, I could not ask. and some sources said that GT was gonna be launched in Aug-14 and some say Sep-14. I'm looking forward to getting the GT TDI.

Thanks!

Any update on Official review of the refreshed polo?[thinking]

 

[shrid]

350Z, you also gotta update
Volkswagen Polo Price, Specifications, Pictures and Reviews.

No, I think something is wrong. It states that the regular Polo Diesel has 3 cyl., and 1499 CC displacement, airbags are standard across all variants. Please look into that.

Thanks.

I have a doubt, why do you think that air-filter intake pipe is moving ? I can even see slight movement of the air filter housing too.
