If they brought the Polo Bluemotion to SA, I would be VERY tempted to get one.

The pictures have been floating around for a while but VW couldn't give me any indication of prices or launch models. They did say that it will start selling locally in April next year.

Same here, trying to get rid of mine before the new model launches.

Haven't seen any of the new ones around though.

Polo with 3.3 litre fuel economy:
The Polo BlueMotion gets a 55 kW 1.2-litre TDI engine with an average fuel consumption of just 3.3 litres of diesel, while the C02 output is 87 g/km. With a 45-litre fuel tank the claimed range is 1 363km.

Cool :) Manufacturers usually do this prior to launching to the public though. I've seen it happen with the GT-R and a few beemers around the Rosslyn area.

Let's hope that the wheels are also part of the internal testing as well because they look hideous.

The rear lights will probably grow on you; other than that, it's one hot little car.

Python, it's just Polo. ;)
