Volkswagen Rolls Out New Polo BlueMotion

ABR Staff Writer Published 18 February 2010

Volkswagen has rolled out the Polo BlueMotion with 1.2-litre TDI three-cylinder common rail diesel engine developing 75PS and 133lbs ft of torque from 2,000rpm.

According to Volkswagen, the new engine combined with longer gear through the five-speed manual gearbox, regenerative brakes and an automatic start/stop system, help the new Polo BlueMotion emit 91g/km of CO2 while returning 80.7mpg on the combined cycle, which grants a theoretical range of over 800 miles on one tank of diesel.

In addition, the new Polo BlueMotion features bespoke bumpers, side skirts, four airbags, ABS and ESP, cruise control, leather steering wheel, and an extended roof spoiler along with 15-inch ‘Greenland’ alloy wheels fitted with low rolling resistance tyres.

The Polo BlueMotion comes with a starting price of £14,445 on the road for three-door, and £15,045 for the five-door model.
