VW Polo
For the U.S. market Volkswagen plans to sell two versions of its Polo compact car- a sedan smaller than the Jetta and a four-door hatchback. “Both versions would be designed especially for the United States”, said Volkswagen Group of America CEO Stefan Jacoby. He also said that sales could start in 2011. The U.S. version of the four-door hatchback would be taller and sit on a longer wheelbase than the European model which is still considered too small for the American market.
“It’s more like a cross between a compact minivan and a hatchback. In other words, it’s more like the Honda Fit,” Jacoby said. Jacoby also stated that the Polo will be priced between $13,000 and $15,000 in the United States. To obtain that price point VW will have to produce the car in North America, likely at VW’s factory in Puebla, Mexico.
