2015 Volkswagen Polo BlueMotion is currently on sale in the United Kingdom with deliveries expected in March. This is the first-ever petrol version of the Polo BlueMotion. The greenest petrol engine in the range I the 1.0-litre BlueMotion TSI unit. It emits only 94 g/km of CO2 and has a fuel economy rating of 68.9 mpg on the combined cycle. The three-cylinder gasoline powerplant is connected to a five-speed manual gearbox.
It is capable of producing 95 horsepower (70 kW) between 5,000 and 5,500 rpm, and a maximum torque of 118 Nm (160 lb-ft) between 1,500 and 3,500 rpm. Usually great efficiency levels come at the expense of performance. This has nothing to do with the Polo BlueMotion, because it can reach a 100 km/h (62 mph) in 10.5 seconds on its way to a top speed of 119 mph.
Volkswagen‘s BlueMotion models are based on the S trim level and add even more equipment including a styling pack. The latter features uniquely shaped front and rear bumpers, radiator grille, side skirts and rear roof spoiler, body coloured door handles, body coloured door mirrors with integrated indicators, front fog lights and static cornering function and unique BlueMotion badging.
There is also an additional kit which adds 15-inch ‘Buenos Aires’ alloys with low rolling resistance tyres, aero body kit, multifunction leather steering wheel, alarm with remote central locking, air conditioning, a front centre armrest, Composition Media and infotainment system, cruise control and Volkswagen’s Driver Alert System.
If one has chosen this version of the Polo, then he or she will also get a Think Blue, Trainer which will give them hint and tips on how to drive in a more economical way.
There is also one more engine option which can power the car. This is the three-cylinder diesel 1.4-litre TDI BlueMotion unit which generates 75 horsepower (55 kW) and returns 91.1 mpg. It can also show-off with emissions of just 82 g/km of CO2.
As a standard, all Polo models come with a colour touchscreen, SD card reader, DAB radio and USB, AUX-in connections and height-adjustable driver’s seat.

What happens when you cross mad lunacy with refinement and sensibility? Obviously and epic lovechild that has the best of both worlds. In our case that’s the VW Polo BlueGT (no, it’s not a sad GTI). It’s a super fun 140 PS Polo that has the looks and feel of a GTI and the metabolism of a BlueMotion. Today, on a stand at the Geneva Motor Show and within months, on to the European roads.
Volkswagen will exhibit several vehicles from the BlueMotion range at the 2011 EcoVelocity held from 8 to 11 September. The visitors will be encouraged by Volkswagen to “Think Blue”, as they get up close and personal with some of the company’s latest BlueMotion products, both on the stand and on the track.
The new Polo BlueMotion is available to order from Volkswagen Retailers today, with prices starting at £14,445 RRP on the road for the three-door, and £15,045 for the five-door model.
Debuted at 2009 Geneva Motor Show in March, the 2010 Volkswagen Polo was chosen for Car of the Year 2010. The Car of the Year jury crowned the Volkswagen vhicle as number 1. 
No other car in this class has such a mature and high-end image as the new Polo. Comfort, quality and safety have all taken a considerable leap forward. One example: the Polo was specifically designed to attain the recently established, stricter and more comprehensive, 5-star EuroNCAP rating. 
In Geneva, Volkswagen presents its first series production vehicle under the BlueMotion banner: the Polo BlueMotion. The compact vehicle with a power output of 59 kW / 80 PS consumes an average of just 3.9 litres of diesel per 100 kilometres, but is just as agile as a conventional Polo with the same specifications. Fuel savings: 0.5 litres per 100 kilometres.
