50 Years of Polo

The Polo has been at the heart of so many unforgettable moments and stories. Your first car, your first trip to the seaside, your first taste of independence – choosing for yourself where the next adventure will take you.

With an initial length of around 3.5 metres, the Polo was the very definition of a small car. Today, with over 20 million units produced worldwide, it’s one of the greats, ranking among the most successful small cars in the world.

'Small but mighty' is the perfect way to sum up the Polo, not just in terms of looks but also in its sporty credentials. Browse through our generational timelines and discover why The Polo is a car for everyone!
