As a VW fan and a vivo driver, the pricing of this one is ridiculous. Starlet is about R289K manual and comes with almost everything. R346K you get 2 airbags. The fact that you have to pay extra for PDC sensors where as Baleno lower spec comes with sensors at R226k.
I wont buy such crap, would rather buy a 7R with 60k km for that same amount
VW has lost a lot of customers 🤞 the pricing is crazy
Great Car but the price is a no no no for me & i can get a 2019 POLO GTI second hand with less than 50k KM on the clock for that amount....even a a GOLF 7.5 second hand with a service history for that amount.
Not worth it, very expensive for 2014 tsi polo high line with minor upgrades
We went over 900km on one tank on our 2019 GT. We bought it for 260k then in 2019. It never gave us any problems so far and I am glad we got a polo. Sometimes cheap is expensive.
As in Less is More lol
Thanx for a very honest review with such accurate feedback. Yes, this car is definitely overpriced and not specced well enough. Trying to buy one now, but VW doesn't even offer proper discount.
But still i just love this "old" Polo. Driven properly, it's very light on fuel and the drive itself is fantastic. Yes sure, a Havalo Jolion is muuuch better specced, but show me one person that's complimenting it's fuel economy....
And remeber, there's NO service plan included in the Vivo's price !
But if you're a VW guy, you'll probably look past all this car's flaws and go with your gut and buy it..
Couldn’t have said it better myself 🔥
VW is taking us for a “Ride”, when it comes to pricing. Whats even worse is that you have to pay extra fir things that come standard on other cars or their competitors cars. Come on guys VW is taking advantage that South Africans are loyal and a big fans of the brand.
VW is bananas ka price. No thank you
This is 200k the most. 150k on top is pure thuggery
U can say that again 😂😂😂
I'd choose the used Opel Corsa 1.4 Turbo any day or rather a 1.0 Cosmo
R355k for a vivo GT thats ridiculous. S.A had lost their plot the economy is killing the lower incomes if you earn R15k after deductions dont bother buying a car.
I chose the polo 6c 1.2 tsi over the polo vivo GT. More spec and over R100 000 difference in price. I just wish it came with a carplay radio for a modern infotainment experience
CarPlay can be retrofitted or simply downloaded on your car it’s software after all
It makes no sense to me
Besides good resale and being very efficient, everything else is negative 😢
Insurance is expensive
Hijack risks
Very expensive to buy
No features😢 evrything is extra
Excellent review as always. The price is ridiculous. I'd get a suzuki baleno gl or glx
This car can move yooo😂but the pricing 👎🏽
Total rip off here
Pricing are increasing on the 1st February, mind that the prices were also increased by 1st December last year, Polo Vivo GT is about to get expensive 😢😢. Also other competitions has electric rear/front windows
I rather buy balleno
That baleno glx it's way better than this. Vw just lost it xem
For the first time in my life I saw a Vivo Mswenko... Yeah, another Vivo with with some stickers, I saw one on Tiktok, a dealer had a "special" model, they basically took a trendline, added black wheels, door handles, and some other bits and bobs from the black style and then added JBL woofer, plus some "GTS" stickers
Spot on. Honest review compared to other reviews I've watched. Lots of room for improvement in spec.
Brand new polo 81 killow watts 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️24 year old Toyota rxi 120 killowats man polo is just weak
O would rather have the suzuki baleno GLX, more car for the money
The R100k jump for a car that's been around for such a long time. Ayy😢
I will get a Suzuki baleno and be happy over the VW any day❤❤❤❤❤
I wouldn't buy. Rather buy the other versions
South Africa is really a pure consumer country. 🚶🏿♂️🚶🏿♂️
Got my GT in November, I looked and looked for one that comes with LED Headlights be it as standard or additional extras but no luck 😢
For that price tag you can just get yourself in a fairly used Haval Jolion 1.5 Luxury. A much bigger car which is more practical and advanced than the polo gt 😂 and this is sad because there are so many people who don't do proper diligence on car prices. You might find out that you'd have bought a much bigger car for that price of a much smaller car such as the polo unless it's preference related.
That money I will get second hand 2022 tsi with low km or even Hyundai Tucson
Nice car 💥💯🙌
Never!
Another fantastic review. Thanks for the upload bru.
I would buy a 2020 polo gti
VW is pricing themselves out of the market. They shouldn't be suprised that Toyota and Suzuki beat them in terms of total units sold. Next they be sitting with their mouth open watching the Chinese brands take over their market share. The worst part is that VW quality was reduced. Not improved. We get cheap feeling cars that are overpriced. Just ridiculous. The Asian manufacturers will end up embarrassing the Germans. Not gonna lie.
Anyway. The review was good. If it wasn't for the price. You'd have me convinced to purchase this vehicle as a daily.
I couldn’t agree more with you on that 🔥
Thank you 🙏🏾
That used to be the price of a Golf 6 GTI
I am a vw fan so dont kill me, but steering is heavy,bcz of the springs and suspension sporty, i wouldnt buy it for more than R300 i have the prefacelift bought it 2500Km for R265K, if you love and enjoy driving and your broke its good ,the power is toxic....but R350k is BIG NO,look at something else,but i wouldn't change it for the world,,the i20,renault not for me
Brand new polo with Turbo 81 killowats🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
24 year old Toyota rxi no Turbo 120 killowats
Is it possible to add a sunroof on this vivo gt?
Rather buy a Polo TSI 1.2 Highline. This Polo Vivo GT is too expensive with the discomfort that is experienced on the adjustment of side mirrors and rear windows
If you wanna buy a Vivo - Leave the GT buy the Vivo 1.4 Comfortline. All you do is add the 16" wheels, take it in Blue and rather spend your money on a maintance plan and your done.
It's 2024 and people are still surprised with the pricing of VW vehicles..It's ridiculous and even dealerships asking price for a 2nd hand polo with over 100k is insanely high..Great review tho👌
amazing car, can anyone tell me how come the Polo Vivo Trendline 1.4 produce 55Kw and the Comfortline with the same 1.4 engine produce 63 Kw... how is it that same engine produce different power output??
Yes it’s possible.
Internals are slightly changed or detuned for the vehicles
The price is insane i mean like what...!!!!!😮😮.With that money i can get standard new polo tsi for less than 350k
You could get the 2021Rline, a good one of you have R340k to play with
What I like about your reviews bro is the honesty in your opinions, if that really makes sense. But yeah VW generally loves to milk the market longer they can - this polo shape has been around since late 2012 😩
One thing we need to understand about VW is that is still a German though it's a bit cheaper than 3 brands
VW it's never cheap and it will never be cheap but we are still buying it that's why you will still see them on road
The pricing is nuts. I would never sherm. I'd rather get something else.
On the next videos please try to show us under the hood, it would be nice for us car lovers to see the goodies and compare... Just a few seconds.
Hi bro can you do a review for Honda ballade sedan 1.5, 2023
Great video, keep it up!
One thing, i thought all these new vivos come with 6 speed boxes
Great review, one more subscriber in.
No longer people’s cars too expensive for a starter pack no 😊
Nice presentation
I stand to be corrected but I'm almost 100% sure the LED lights are not standard it's an opt extra. But I do stand to be corrected.
They’re an extra.
Price is ridiculous yerrr
Nah man - the GT price is mad
A six gear car is the best 👌 😅😅😅
With that money, go get a CLio 5
Too expensive
This car is worth it. We've had the pre face-lift since 2019, and it's amazing, but I wouldn't recommend you spend more than R300K for it👊
Neeh bra, this is kak expensive! 🥵🤡
😂😂😂
