German car manufacturer Volkswagen has showcased the special edition of the Polo, called the Polo VRS, at the Indonesia Motor Show. Performance being the focus here, the car is based on the Polo GT TSI; however it gets an upgrade in power along with sporty cosmetic detailing over the standard model. The car is focused at those who always craved for that additional bit of power from the Polo.

Making it faster than the standard model is the ‘Performance Package’ that generates 138bhp and 230Nm of torque from the 1.2-litre turbocharged four-cylinder TSI petrol engine. The standard model produces an impressive additional 35bhp of power and 55Nm of torque over the regular model. The powerful engine comes mated to a seven-speed DSG transmission.       

Fresh upgrades come in the form of the black spoiler, blacked out bumper with silver highlights and large 16-inch alloy wheels. To distinguish it from the regular version, the vehicle gets the ‘VRS’ badging on the sides. The interior looks similar to the India-spec Polo GT TSI, however it gets a driver-side armrest and new audio system with USB, AUX and Bluetooth connectivity.
