The 2021 Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI Comfortline DSG is generally praised for its comfort, refined ride, solid build quality, and fuel efficiency, though some reviewers note a noticeable turbo lag at lower speeds and a responsive brake pedal. It offers a well-equipped interior with standard safety features like airbags and stability control, a decent boot size for its class, and good sound insulation. While lacking the sporty engagement of some competitors, it's a reliable and practical choice, with the TSI engine and DSG transmission benefiting from proper maintenance.
Positives
Comfortable and Quiet Ride: The smaller rims and larger tire profiles contribute to a comfortable ride, and the cabin is well-insulated, making it a quiet and composed vehicle.
Solid Build Quality: Owners and reviewers praise the high-quality interior and overall robust construction of the Polo.
Fuel Efficiency: The 1.0 TSI engine is known for its fuel efficiency, offering a good balance of economy for daily driving.
Good Safety Features: The Comfortline trim includes comprehensive safety equipment, such as multiple airbags, ABS with EBD, and stability control.
Practicality: It features a useful boot space (around 350-351 litres) and split-folding rear seats for added cargo versatility.
Considerations
Engine Lag: Some drivers experience a slight delay or "turbo lag" when accelerating from a standstill, particularly with the engine's start-stop feature.
Brake Pedal Sensitivity: The brake pedal can feel "grabby" or overly responsive, requiring some adjustment to adapt to the initial millimeters of travel.
Engine Vibrations: As a three-cylinder engine, the 1.0 TSI can be slightly noisier and produce more noticeable vibrations compared to a four-cylinder engine.
Maintenance: The complex TSI engine and DSG transmission benefit significantly from regular and timely maintenance, especially oil changes, to ensure longevity.
