About the Volkswagen Polo
The Volkswagen Polo is more expensive for 2024, with its price leader manual base model dropped and increases across the rest of the range.
Pricing has increased across the range by between $500 to $1050. The mid-spec Style receives the highest price increase as it regains safety features previously removed due to semiconductor shortages.
The 2024 Volkswagen Polo Style regains blind-spot assist, rear cross-traffic alert, and proactive occupant protection – which tightens the seatbelts, closes the windows, and shuts the sunroof if it detects an imminent collision – as standard equipment.
Also new for 2024 is the steering wheel in the range-topping Polo GTI. Volkswagen is ditching the fiddly capacitive buttons on the current steering wheel, and is replacing them with physical buttons.
