The Polo GTI. Three letters that make a difference

These days, these three letters don’t need explaining to anyone. GTI means fun, pure and simple. And in this case, GTI means big car perfomance in a small car package. The Polo GTI.

The Polo GTI = style and performance in one

Iconic GTI design
Surround yourself in the feel of the GTI that continues in the vehicle interior, including decorative stitching on the steering wheel and floor mats, as well as the checked "Clark" seat covers.

After all, you want to see well and look good
Lighting the way, in more ways than one: the LED headlights with cornering lighting and the fog lights look good at the same time as increasing good visibility.

A multitude of features to keep you moving
Whether it's the range of safety and assistance programmes or the sports suspension with driving profile selections, the Polo GTI is sure to please.

Performance

200 HP

The 200 most important reasons why you need a Polo GTI

With a huge 147 kW, the engine proudly hits the 200 HP mark. That’s enough to accelerate the compact athlete from 0 to 100 in 6.7 seconds. What's more, the TSI engine achieves an unprecedented level of tractive power, even at low engine speeds. Driving doesn’t get more fun than this – and we haven't even come to the XDS differential lock yet.

Driving profile selection

The Polo GTI adapts to your driving style

The driving profile selection function allows you to adjust to your driving style. Dynamic for every journey, if you're feeling sporty, simply select the driving profile with the press of a button. Experience your steering response and even the gear-shift points adjust automatically. Whatever your mood, you set the tone with a range of driving styles.

Start-stop system with brake energy recuperation

Slow down on the spending

The start-stop system saves fuel by switching off the engine when the vehicle is stationary. Like when it’s at a red traffic light. All you have to do is take your foot off the clutch. When the lights go green, engage the clutch again and the engine will start back up. Just as simple and efficient: brake energy recuperation. This function uses an alternator to generate energy when you apply the brake or coast. This energy is then stored in the battery.

Features & Design

A GTI can be recognised from afar - thanks to its characteristic GTI features, combined with its progressive design. The latter includes the red trim, honeycomb-shaped ventilation grille, red brake calipers and dynamic alloy wheels.

With a look to match its performance

You won’t need to tell anyone that you’re driving a Polo GTI. They’ll already know just from looking at its red trim strips, the hallmark honeycomb ventilation grille, red brake calipers and the striking sporty wheels.

And when they climb aboard they’ll know for sure thanks to the GTI-inspired interior design with un-mistakeable check-pattern seats.
