The Polo Life 1.0 TSI 95PS in Deep Black Pearl is proof that small doesn?t have to mean basic. This five-door supermini looks seriously smart in metallic black, set off by 15 ?Essex? black diamond‑,turned alloys that give it a subtly sporty stance. Inside, the Titanium Black cabin with Ceramique roof lining feels grown‑,up and solid in the way only a VW can. Under the bonnet, the 1.0 TSI turbocharged petrol with 95PS and a 5‑,speed manual gearbox is all about real‑,world usability. It?s light on its feet in town, keen enough on a country road, and impressively economical ? exactly what you want from a daily driven hatchback. The manual ?box is slick and precise, adding a welcome touch of driver involvement. Where this Polo really distances itself from budget rivals is in technology and safety. The ?Ready 2 Discover? infotainment system brings a sharp touchscreen, six speakers, streaming and internet capability plus wireless App‑,Connect, so your smartphone integrates cleanly without cables. It?s future‑,proof too, with preparation for an upgrade to full navigation if you want it later. On the safety front, Travel Assist with Emergency Assist is standout kit in a car this size. You get Front Assist autonomous emergency braking, Predictive Adaptive Cruise Control and lane‑,keeping with traffic jam assist ? big‑,car tech that takes the edge off longer journeys. An alarm with interior monitoring and SAFELOCK central locking adds peace of mind.
