2021 Volkswagen Polo facelift teaser was recently released by the carmaker ahead of its global debut on 22nd April. Ahead of its world premiere, the model has been spotted with minimal camouflage revealing its design details. Painted in silver paint scheme, the updated hatchback features a new grille and sharply designed bi-LED headlamps.
Just below the headlamps, there is an illuminated LED strip running across the front grille. The rear section has also been revised with slightly updated bumper and new, squarish LED taillamps that seems inspired by the bigger VW Golf.
Interior of the new 2021 Volkswagen Polo is likely to share some of its bits with the SEAT Ibiza that was recently unveiled. The updated hatchback will get a newly-designed dashboard along with a larger, new touchscreen infotainment system. The unit is likely to offer multiple connected services. The higher trim might get a fully digital instrument cluster. Rumour has it that the Volkswagen Polo 2021 could be equipped with a Level 2 semi-autonomous system.

In the European market, the new Polo will retain the existing engine setup. Powering the top-end GTI variant will be the same 2.0L, 4-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine marking power around 200bhp. Transmission choices might include both manual and DSG automatic units. The lower trims will be available with petrol, diesel and CNG engine options.
In other updates, the German carmaker is considering to bring in the new-generation Volkswagen Polo in the Indian market. It will be the seventh generation model based on the heavily localized MQB AO IN platform. The same architecture will underpin the upcoming Volkswagen Taigun and Skoda Kushaq, which are slated to arrive in coming months. While the global Polo measures 4053mm in length, its India-spec version will be trimmed down to avail tax benefits offered on the sub-4 meter vehicles.
