New 2014 Volkswagen Polo 1.5 GT TDI Review: Game of Torque

Styling

2014 Volkswagen Polo GT TDI (73)

So the first thing we noticed on the front grille was the GT logo. It probably has taken the Facebook left brained or right brained test and has repositioned itself on the right side of the grille this time. The rest of the styling is identical to the refreshed Polo 1.5 TDI, which includes new double barrel headlamps, connected with a chrome strip that runs across the bottom of the radiator grille, a new bumper with a chrome lined upper lip, horizontal fog lamps with cornering feature and all of that adds up to create a familiar looking face, one that you are glad to see.

Moving sideways, the horizontal theme continues with a crease that starts from the headlamps, runs through the waistline and melts into the rear. The Polo GT twins get 15” Estrada Alloy wheels which look good, though we would’ve loved it if VW provided black wheels and painted the brake calipers in the colour of your choice, at least as an option. Mirrors are finished in a glossy black housing, no matter which shade of GT you paint your life in.

Move towards the rear and you are greeted with a spoiler that is finished in black, while the bumper with integrated reflectors and the tail lights are carried over from the saner Polo 1.5 TDI. The boot gets ‘GT’ badging, which helps differentiate the car from its less powerful sibling in a very subtle fashion, which is so typical of the car. You like things loud? Step aside please.

  1. It’s a well manufactured very powerful and comfortable car but it’s service chain it’s spoiled by corrupt dealers. That’s why you have to bear the triple maintenance cost.
