Who likes thirsty cars? Seriously?
Of course, cars can, must and should be fun. Only at the gas station they shouldn't be outrageous. However, this cannot always be avoided with sporty models. And so you have to decide all too often when buying a car:
Sporty, or eco?
If you are looking for a small athlete with real, authentic GTI genes in the class of clear compact models, you will find what you are looking for in the Polo GTI. Less riot? More ecological cleverness? Then the Polo BlueMotion may be the right choice.
And yes, that's right - there is really a gap between these 2 models. One should be sporty, the other economical. Volkswagen now wants to build the bridge between the two models and combines both worlds. A little sport from the GTI model, more clever ecology from the BlueMotion model. The combination of both results in:
Volkswagen Polo BlueGT
I drove the little “Spar athlete” around the Dutch metropolis of Amsterdam. After I had the opportunity to shoot a little “moving image” - that is, a video, I will make my remarks a little shorter here in the blog.
Here is the clip:
What else needs to be said:
[one_third last=”no”]What does he want to be?He wants to be the hermaphrodite, the dancer between the worlds. An eco-athlete in the staid garb of the Wolfsburg Technoid Compact.
[/one_third] [one_third last=”no”]What can he do?Flew fast and waving swiftly. And still very successful seem a number larger than it really is.
[/one_third] [one_third last=”yes”]What can not he do?Turn the physics upside down. Who gives full throttle, who pays also in the BlueGT the express surcharge. Do not be surprised.

Short summary of the Volkswagen Polo BlueGT:
It's like the little angel and the little devil. The angel sits on the left shoulder, the devil on the right and constantly whispering both the wildest fantasies and the most reasonable advice in the driver's ear.
With the GTI make-up on the outside, the ingenious 1.4 TSI that goes unnoticed between the 2- and 4-cylinder world and the solid interior - the Polo BlueGT impresses with talents that I (for example) could not have expected of this very compact Wolfsburg man. That's enough compliment!
