New images of Volkswagen s upcoming Polo SUV have been released, giving the world the first glimpse of the new vehicle.
The images show that the next generation model has been given a sportier and overall more rugged look than its smaller hatchback counterpart. Compared to this generations Polo, the next gen Polo SUV will have a raised height, and although exact details have not yet been released, a wheelbase that is around 90mm longer than the existing hatchback. It s also expected that rear passenger space and boot capacity will receive at least a modest increase.
Styling for the new crossover is conservative in line with Volkswagen s existing product range, taking influence from the face-lifted Golf that will be released later this year. A spokesperson for Volkswagen has hinted that interior quality will remain similar to previous generations, but that a bigger emphasis has been placed on improved connectivity.
It s expected that the Polo SUV will go on sale at some point in 2018, following the release of the revamped Polo hatchback next year.
