Four trim versions set the style
Trendline, Comfortline, Highline and Beats. For the pre-sales launch (from August) the new Polo will be available in the three trim lines Trendline, Comfortline and Highline and also as a special Beats version (with a 300-watt Beats sound system). The next Polo GTI will be launched at a slightly later date.
Exterior – features distinguishing the different versions
Chrome, lights and wheels. Fine details distinguish the exterior of the three trim lines Trendline, Comfortline and Highline from one another. The Polo Comfortline is identified by a chrome strip in the radiator grille between the headlights. The Polo Highline additionally has chrome strips in the lower ventilation grille. Other distinguishing features of the Polo Highline at the front are combined modules for the fog lights, cornering lights and LED daytime running lights. Features upgrading the Polo Beats include black painted exterior mirror housings, decorative decals on the bonnet and roof and 'Beats' badging on the B-pillars. Further exterior identifying features include the wheel and tyre combinations. Depending on trim level, the new Polo is fitted with 14-, 15- or 16-inch wheels. Volkswagen offers further
15-, 16- and 17-inch rims as optional equipment. Furthermore, the Polo GTI will be introduced on the market with 18-inch rims.

Interior – features distinguishing the different versions
Trim, instrument panel and dashpad decors. Parallel to the standard features, the trim lines feature different interior trims, colours and fabrics. One of the most striking individualisation features is the instrument panel with the dashpad. New for this generation of Polo, this dashpad is offered with different coloured trims.
- Trim colours. There are generally two trim colours: Titan Black (not for Beats) and Ceramique (not for Trendline).
- Instrument panel. Three instrument panel versions are available for the Polo: Black (Trendline), Black in soft slush (Comfortline and Highline) and Aqua Graphite, also in soft slush (Comfortline, Highline and Beats).
- Dashpad trims. The dashpad stretches across the entire new instrument panel and comes in different trim colours. The trims extend all the way to the door trims. The Polo Trendline has a dashpad in Deep Black Pearl Effect matt. Depending on the exterior colour the standard dashpad of the Polo Comfortline comes in Silver Silk matt or Limestone Grey matt. The dashpad of the Polo Highline is painted in Silver Silk glossy or Deep Iron glossy. In addition, the Highline instrument panel is upgraded with ambient lighting. The Polo Beats always has a dashpad painted in Velvet Red. The R-Line package comes with Shadow Steel trim.
Colour schemes – a Polo has never been this colourful
14 body colours and eight dashpads The large range of colours with a total of 14 body colours and eight different colours for the dashpad colour schemes will contribute towards making sure that one individually configured sixth-generation Polo is unlikely to be precisely the same as another.
