As reported by Volkswagen
Wolfsburg - The next generation CrossPolo is ready for new adventures. After the Polo base version presented in 2009 and the Polo BlueMotion (debut in 2010) with its superior and possibly recordbreaking fuel efficiency, and the Polo GTI that is also launching at this time, the CrossPolo now completes the series as a fourth model. With its refreshingly cheeky all-terrain look, unique world of colours and features, and a higher ride height (15 millimetre gain), the CrossPolo is very appealing as one of the most unconventional vehicles in its class.
This all-rounder is powered by extremely fuel-efficient engines with a power range from 51 kW/70 PS to 77 kW /105 PS. Buyers can choose from three petrol and three common rail TDI engines. Two of the six engines can be ordered with a 7-speed DSG, like the one used on vehicles such as the Polo GTI.
Fun and Cross: From special edition to production model
The new CrossPolo continues in the tradition of its successful pre decessors: the Polo Fun and the first generation CrossPolo derived from it. Originally, a production run of only 5,000 units was planned for the special edition Polo Fun, but great demand exploded all forecasts. The consequence: the step was taken from special edition to pro duction model and to the Cross version.
Exterior: Tough qualities and lifestyle character
The rugged-sporty character of the CrossPolo – always produced as a five-door – are reflected in many of its details. Especially striking: the individually styled front apron – in anthracite colour − with integrated front fog lights and large air inlet at the centre. It gets a black honeycomb insert bordered by fine chrome trim. Towards its lower edge, the bumper finishes with a section in light silver with the visual appearance of underbody protection. Taken from classic Polo styling are the upper radiator grille with its chrome inlay and the VW logo integrated here; the same applies to the dual headlights with standard daytime running lights.
The side profile of the CrossPolo also shows very tough qualities. Here sporty black wheelarch extensions and coordinated body sills set the styling. The latter continue visually into the lower door area. In off-road driving and in the jungle of metropolitan parking spaces, these rugged plastic guards protect the car from damage. Fitting the character of the CrossPolo are the 17-inch alloy wheels (“Budapest” style) in 5-spoke design with tyres in 215/40 format.
