Exterior changes include a gloss-black roof, “Racing GT” spoiler, GT Sport decals on the doors and 16-inch burnished alloy wheels. Interiors get GT Sport branded upholstery. No mechanical changes under the hood, since the GT variants are already the performance variants. The petrol version is powered by a 1.2 TSI motor with an output of 105 hp and 175 Nm of torque, paired to a 7-Speed DSG. The diesel is a 1.5 TDI unit, producing 110 hp and 250 Nm of torque, paired to a 5-Speed manual.

Both GT models (TSI and TDI) get cruise control, auto AC, ambient lights, rear parking sensors, dual front airbags and ABS as standard. The TSI gets ESP and hill-hold control as well.

The Polo GT Sport is available in two color options, Flash red and Candy White.

Thierry Lespiaucq, Managing Director, Volkswagen Groups Sales India, said, “Polo GT has been the first choice for buyers who seek strong power delivery and class leading efficiency both perfectly combined in a single carline. The GT badge has always instilled the pride of owing the best, and the Polo GT Sport edition takes it a notch higher further increasing the sport quotient of the vehicle. With this offering, we are providing our consumers with an option to choose a sportier variant of the most loved hatchback the Polo GT.”
