Looks and Design
The VW Polo gets an elegant and classy looking design and looks extremely attractive. The overall design, which remains largely similar for more than a decade now, still looks great and the car remains still looks one of the best in the segment. The build quality of the Polo is worth mentioning here and we expect the 2020 VW Polo to age really well with time.
Interiors
Just like other VW cars, the new Polo gets a well built and elegant looking dashboard that gets a practical layout. While the Polo may not have modern features such as push-button start, it still gets all the necessary features and other connectivity features such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The seats at the front and at the rear are comfortable and supportive but it is worth noting the fact that the overall space in the rear seat is poor.
