VW announced on Monday that its new Polo 1.0 TSI DSG derivatives will go on sale at the end of February.

Equipped with the firm's popular seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, both models offer increased muscle over their manual siblings with their 1.0-litre three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engines tuned to deliver 85kW and 200Nm worth of torque.

Starting at R370,700, the Polo Life 1.0 TSI DSG comes equipped as standard with a digital dashboard display, front and rear park distance control, electric folding mirrors, lumbar support for the driver and front passenger, a leather-wrapped multi-function steering wheel with shift paddles and smart 15-inch "Essex" alloy wheels. 

Building on the specification of the Life is the flagship Polo R-Line 1.0 TSI DSG that ups the visual ante with sporty front and rear R-Line bumpers as well as a rear air diffuser with integrated chrome exhaust tailpipes.

Also standard are on the R-Line are 16-inch "Valencia" alloy wheels, two-zone climate control and a Composition Media system with inductive mobile charging. Other neat touches include Grey Anodised Matte dashboard trim and "R-Line" fabric seats. Pricing for the R-Line begins at R421,900. 

Both come with a standard three-year/120,000km warranty, three-year/45,000km service plan and a 12-year anti-corrosion warranty.
