AutoExec Summary
The 2024 Volkswagen Polo 85TSI Style demonstrates that city hatchbacks can be both refined and well-equipped, albeit at a steep price nearing $40,000 drive-away with options. Although it offers a spacious interior, advanced tech, and solid driving dynamics, it has some downsides like a hesitant dual-clutch transmission and high servicing costs. Competitors such as the Toyota Yaris, Suzuki Swift, Mazda 2, and Skoda Fabia provide strong alternatives. Given its pricing, the Polo Style is worth considering for those seeking a premium small car, but the Life variant may offer better value.
