- Diesel Car, Torque (pulling) Power is very high.,Petrol car Torque (pulling)Power is lower,But for City driving, that inital Pick-up is not Good in DIESEL Car.,Petrol Cars run @ very good Speed (pick-up) in City driving conditions.But Disel Car on the Highway Road is uncomparable Speed, Torque & Fuelefficiency.Diesel Car 22.05 Km/ Litre,Petrol. 17.5 Km onlyDiesel Car: Routine maintenance is little bit costly (But, because of more mileage that is not a problem) 👍
- Diesel gives more mileage and in cost also it will be high.....petrol mileage will be 2-3kmpl low when compared to Diesel but performance will be superior than petrol...and latest tsi turbo engine is wonderful....
- Both Volkswagen Polo and Tata Altroz are good premium hatches and offer a lot to their customers. However, as per your requirements, we'd suggest you to go with the Tata Altroz as the car offers practical and spacious cabin for a family of five. While the Altroz does not manage to set a new standard in the segment, it will fit right into the mix with a long feature list, sharp looks and a comfortable ride. On the other hand, if you value build, drive experience and ride over feature gimmicks and are willing to sacrifice on space, the Polo would be a good fit for you. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.Read More: - Tata Altroz 2019 Petrol & Diesel: First Drive - Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI: Road Test Review
- Altroz were very calm and comfort engine and best build quality engine..on other hand polo were perfomace vehicle..decent space back only 2 menbes can sit comforble..bery strong build quality..hot hatchback..100 percent fun to drive
- Thank You,Team
- For strictly city drives predominantly, I would go for Polo highline, but for mainly off road drives Ford freestyle will be my choice. Freestyle driving comfort is more, panoramic view is more, but after all Volkswagen is Volkswagen. I hope you understand.
- Bro I am having VW Polo Highline plus. I am also a user like you so it suits you and the other thing i don't know about ford freestyle But VW polo highline plus is missile.

Zero to minimum vibrations. Feel safe when inside the car, very good family carValue for moneyService cost is comparable to other similar carsI didn't find any issue with the after sales service yet. The service center calls me every year to remind me for the service, provides free pick up and drop service.Overall, the car was trouble free for the last five years and my family enjoys riding in it.
Surya Ramachandran few weeks ago -
Design that brilliantly & elegantly ages, Performance that puts a grin on your face every time you floor the metal.Built like a tank, Which makes you feel safe doesn't matter even if you are driving at a high speed.Though have heard of aftersales issues from other owners on various portals but over the 6years of ownership, Never once had an issue either with the car or the service center.

its been about 6 years now where I get my hands on skoda rapid very solid very confident,punchy and secure to drive always till now. i drived some vehicles,but none give you the feel of that power and confidence, recommend this to anyone who wants a senden in this segment,things mainly needed to changed Michelin tyre and hid headlamps and a tweeter,addition a sub if possible

Outstanding. Driven almost every hatchback, but found polo is best. People says its service cost is on higher side. I have not found such issues with my polo. And if you have to spent 2 or 3 thousand rupees extra annually.i think its nothing to lose.Build quality of this car ride. Handling.comfort.5 stars. Only con i found is a little noisy. Otherwise go for polo. Best ever mini car for your family.
