      PowerDrift PowerDrift i think a fast hatch will be driven fast by most ppl. So u need to factor in the most important thing while reviewing. Safety. Youre different from other channels. Better in many ways. But its funny how you missed tge safety part. Also when u do review the safety part please dont do what others do and just read specs on paper. Both these cars have 2 airbags n other electronic aids. But the baleno has a questionable safety structure and every accident i have seen or read about involving a baleno hasnt ended well for the car. The baleno ncap rating isnt great and the one tested isnt the same one which is for indian market which i feel.is more compromised for lowering costs. I dont own either of the cars. Just giving my view. Our life is most important and you need to review even safety.

      @@pravingnanam3115 My dad bought Polo Diesel in 2011, and his friend(Hyundai lover) bought i20 Petrol in 2012 because of its cheap maintaince. But gotta say, my dad has driven polo now for almost 170k KM now and car is really responsive till now, specially it's Turbo and Build is something which you definitely can't get in any car of this price range. However, i20 is spacious, has cheaper maintenance, light steering (which I personally like) and some extra features in interior(which to be honest are useless). But polo had some major crashes, but still polo saved the passengers and I guess if it was some other small car, it would have been destroyed. So, in terms of Dynamics and Safety and Looks(own choice) Polo is way better than i20

      @@bigfoot01 thanks for your response. I get it. I currently own a Toyota Etios premium for family use. The only advantage with Toyota is it's absolutely reliable engine efficiency and it's well know to everyone. Can I expect the same durability with Polo engines regardless of the varients?

      @@pravingnanam3115 I personally like Toyota very much because of their comfort and Etios itself is a really comfortable and spacious car. I have driven my uncle's 7yo Etios and it has a pretty refined engine. But I can say, polo even has a better and aggressive engine, whether you drive it in city or hilly area, power won't be the limit in this price segment. Our Polo is now almost 9 yo and 1.75 lacs km driven. But believe me there has been no issues with the engine yet. Acceleration has decreased a bit now(takes approximately 13 secs to reach 100), but that's after a heavy usage of Polo and for a long time.
      Yeah, the service is a bit expensive, it is because there parts are really premium and better than Hyundai and Maruti and aren't easily available in local market. And I have seen the parts used by VW and parts used in Hyundai/Maruti from local market.
      Also which many people don't know, when a single part gets damaged, they change whole system around it, for eg, my car's pipe of liquid coolent was damaged, they changed many things with it as well. It's their company policy

    I liked all the videos of power drift except Baleno RS vs Polo GT TSI
    POLO is way far ahead compared to Baleno
    1 solid cabin
    Harman kardon touch screen music system
    better noise cancellation cabin
    DSG 7 speed gear box awesome
    4 cylinder 1.2 turbo better than 3 cylinder 1.0 turbo
    better handing and cornering than Baleno
    quality interiors it's more powerful and stable and durable
    top speed 210 kmph
    so this is better sports hatch back with mileage of 16.5 km in highways and 11 kmpl in the city

    I don't know how to put it technically, but for a moment you forget the cars and appreciate how well executed / packaged the show is- music , content, special effects etc.; there is a punch to it all.
    Automotive shows in are a bit too dull- dead music, in the midst of desolate highways, some lousy close-up and panning shots to add to the nonexistent drama, and show anchors who would be more at ease selling high-end apartments.
    IMHO, PD has the best anchors for automotive content in this country right now, including Gavin from the Autocar channel.

    The Baleno RS that suzuki sells here isn't even a real contender, lol. Polo GT will run rings around the tin can.
    Suzuki sells a faster, well built version of the RS in Europe, producing more power and torque.
    *That* would be a real competitor to the GT, not this.
    To be honest, I'd pick either the JTP Tiago or the Figo S. It's more practical than both the RS and the GT, while being pretty fast.

    Comparing European cars with Japanese and Korean cars is a foolishness.
    Volkswagen Ford and fiat is a beautiful royal class car at affordable prices, at the same time Japanese extracting the people's innocence or foolishness, yes maintenance is a bit expensive but life is more precious, and unmatched driving experience.
    Instead of buying a Japanese car, it will be better to buy seconds ford or Volkswagen, which is not only cheaper to buy moreover it will be much cheaper to maintain aswell.
    For example I bought a used vento instead of i20, by which I saved 5 lakhs of rupees, and if u calculate 10 percent depreciation value, plus 10 percent bank intrest plus 3 percent insurance premium which is about 23 percent savings every year, which amounts to 1.19 lakh. And even if u send 50 thousands of rupees on service, u would be saving about 69 thousand rupees every year.

    I am a maruti suzuki owner from last 4 years (RUNNING 65k kms), last year I got a vw polo (RUNNING 22k kms) & now I would never turn back to maruti suzuki again. The build, drive quality and safety standards are superior in VW. The metal on VW is more stronger than (ANY) maruti suzuki running today. VW is worth every penny, you will know the toughness of polo just by closing its doors. Spending same amount on a maruti is a total waste.
    And people say maruti has low maintenance. Really?? the service cost is around 5-6K twice in a year for maruti suzuki
    VW gets serviced for 12k (1 service + 1 general checkup) annually and not a single penny spent on my polo for any issues till now.
    The baleno can't even match the safety standards of ford figo and fiat punto and you guys are comparing it with a poloGT and that too with a DSG gearbox !!
    This video looks like a car commercial
    not a true review

      @VishwajeetTarde1996 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I also laugh in the same way like you did @7:14 when any idiot speaks for maruti suzuki over the VW polo :P
      I wonder what makes them to go for maruti suzuki when it comes to "DAILY BASIS" (as GLEN said "live with it everyday")
      That means safety & drive quality doesn't matter for such folks on a daily basis ?? All that matters is the gimmick infotainment system to play with and a long list of shitty features which maruti suzuki and hyundai uses fooling people for their marketing purpose.
      I don't think any VW or SKODA owner would ever turn back to hyundai or maruti suzuki.

      @@MixyezGuy not because VW makes bad cars, but because Indians would prefer rain sensing wipers and auto headlamps in a tin can piece of crap over slightly lesser features list in a car built like a tank.
      Same reason why fiat, whose cars were built more strongly than a gazillion SuzuSHITs put together, had to stop production.

      sankalp sankrityayan bro Polo is always rated superbly for its handling and suspension. That solid build, wide lower stance n yes it's got the weight for that planted feeling. No body roll. I spent 8 months of research before choosing a Polo over its competition and I drove all the hatchbacks, sedans that fell in the same price bracket.

    You gotta be kidding me! How can one compare the mighty Polo GT with a Baleno RS?!
    I think I need to give a detailed comment over this as things are really getting out of hands :D
    Here`s why I would prefer GT TSI over the RS
    - Excellent 4 Cylinder
    - Excellent Gearbox ( right until it fails :P)
    - Build Quality and
    - "Predictable Highway Manners"
    Glen, It's only us enthusiasts who crib for such matters, and we form only a minute percentage of the overall market.A simple tyre upgrade can take care of the handling deficiency on a stock setup. Polo GT Sport has been launched which addresses Glen's comment about the tyre and infotainment system. ( 195s in R16 and 7-inch infotainment )
    A majority of the Indians don't care much about the tyre size. You'd be surprised how many Swift Lower variant owners are happy with those tiny tyres! But in the end, the common man doesn't care.
    Why I won't prefer Baleno RS
    - Quality Matters
    - Not so enthusiastic riding dynamics
    -The plastic used on top of the engine, wire routeing in connecting components and insulation materials are of poor quality, a
    A highly skilled household electrician might do a better job.
    *This is an incomplete version, I hope I'll have the luxury of time to write a detailed comment in coming days*
    Like always *Great Job PD*, Loved watching both of you on screen together.
    Isn't it the right time for another blockbuster yet? ;)
    Comparing DSG to a Manual Gearbox is Flawed. Even a Monkey ( not Glen; polo you`re awesome bro) can drive a DSG car. It shifts under 8ms. I don't think any human ( even Rohan ) can shift anything under than 400ms. Don't want to get into the debate but making a statement about the numbers.

    @vstube3764 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Both nice cars. But if you're really in the market for a hot hatch and do not want to buy the abarth then the polo is the best bet. Neither of these cars offers performance which is enough to satisy an enthusiast. The polo is extremely mod friendly. There are remaps, performance upgrades from well known tuners from around the world. Despite the heavier weight it beats the baleno rs. N the difference is bigger post 100kmph. A remap, free flow exhaust will take the top end to 210-230kmph on speed97 n make it faster then many cars from 2 classes above. Those who can afford to spend more can also upgrade suspension to kw street comfort n lower car by 10-15mm. Btw petes also offers retrofit of rear discs for the gt. And you can upgrade to bigger brakes in the front.

    I love the baleno RS because we have to agree to the fact that delivering 18 kmpl in the city that too with a powerful turbocharged engine is insanely outstanding,talking about build quality,polo GTs are amazing but those who are afraid of accidents and crashing their cars opt for a better build quality. And mileage point of view 7 in the city (polo GT) mahn my pockets never hold money if this is the car i own✌️and 10,000 per year(maintainance) is absolutely saddening.I have been driving the baleno RS proudly since 1year and it is a completely satisfying experience in terms of driving pleasure,mileage, maintenance(5,670₹/year),features as well. So.........Vreommm ahead baleno RS wins🥇
