Friends, I drive a 2015 Golf Gti. that is a segment above Polo Gti. These are really good cars. But even the Golf Gti is cheaper than 25 Lakhs if you convert in to $'s. This car should be max 13-15 lakhs in India. Any more than that is a rip off. Also, to those who are comparing buying bigger cars for same or less money than this car. ..you guys have no idea what these driver focused cars are about. These are not for luxury of the passengers, they are for the driver to feel like a race car driver everyday. There is no comparison so stop wasting time comparing Apples to Oranges.

Shiladitya Ray We get it, You're a Petrol head. But Imagine buying a car that costs a fortune and still not being able to drive the car to even 1/4th of its potential. The car's suspension might be partially ready for Indian roads but the roads/Infrastructure are definitely not ready for this car. Plus there's a reason VW has come up with "only 99 cars to be sold" Concept/marketing Strategy, because they know they probably won't be reaching that target anyway.

@vsk906 7 жыл бұрын

Shiladitya Ray exactly bro even I felt the same. there re lot of idiots who don't know anything about cars , and just comment saying that it's expensive and I would buy innova fortuner instead.. they think big is better. they should learn that potency is important than being big. just for joke...

Exactly guys. These guys does'nt what a car is or what German Engineering is. Fools starts comparing it with lame Toyota's Innova and Fortuner....WTF...How the hell could they compare a GTI with toycars like Innova & Fortuner. They exactly don't know what is a GT and a GTI is.

Why not bring the golf gti mk 7? It looks so much better and is sharper and is a legend in its own right. There may be reasons such as sharing assembly line with polo and also Indian roads that can get golf polo. But given the price point, I'd be more than happy to spend a few more lakh and get Golf GTI or Golf R imported. It's just too good a car. I think buyers should consider this option.

I have got one and its completely worth it if i really haven't had the car probably i would also have said the same as most of the people are saying in the comments section but after even 5 months of ownership it still amazes me every time i drive it. The most important thing for me as a customer for a exotic vehicle is not attention grabbing and the polo thus that ever so effortlessly its just blends in the traffic untill i smoke few suvs of course. in that way no one comes to waste my time by getting in front of my car clicking selfies and i get to go home fast and un noticed cool
