Volkswagen Polo
Volkswagen Polo
Volkswagen chose the eve of the Geneva Motor Show to unveil its new fifth generation Polo supermini. With a sharper and more contemporary design, the Polo features understated design elements Volkswagen Group Head of Design Walter de'Silva calls "the new look of Volkswagen". From the front, the car's longer headlamps, thin upper grille and honeycomb lower grille insert recall the Golf and Scirocco models, but the headlamps incorporate eyebrows within the housing and the chin spoiler beneath the bumper combine to lend an overall air of aggression to the design. Departing from the headlamp are three creases which subtly communicate dynamism: one crease extends from the headlamp and climbs over the hood while the other two find their way to the edge of the fender, detracting from the overall height of the front when seen in profile. The crease at the farthest edge becomes the shoulder and extends the width of the car. At the rear, the sinister look is continued in the taillamp design, which also features an integrated eyebrow graphic, but the design retains the precision found on other models in the range through a simple aesthetic.
New Polo is cool looking. Wish we got it here in the States. It's VW's entry vehicle in europe.
