VW’s recently introduced Polo Beats is now available for UK buyers starting from £13,910 for the three-door 60 PS 1.0 BMT version.

Visually, the Polo Beats comes with standard 16″ ‘Knight’ alloy wheels, darkened rear light clusters, tinted rear windows, High Gloss Black grille and a choice of Flash Red, Pure White or Black door mirrors.

Aside from 300-watt, 8-channel amplifier with DSP, the interior also features ‘Cortina Silver’ trim, leatherette trim and chrome trim across the center console, air vent surrounds and door panels.
