Volkswagen Polo GT TSI & GT TDI : Review : PowerDrift

- We have been taught to believe that India as a market is devoid of good performance hatchbacks. While yes, it is true that our market is mostly fixated either on the cars that can give you absurd fuel economy, or cars that hurls an inane number of features, but then.. there are these cars.
One's that looks plain jane on the outside, goes about doing its daily chores, and when the time is right... it does this.

Even after 7 years that GT TDI entry at 3:45 , is still the best entrance for any car I've seen till this date 😬😬
Power slide!!🔥
Holyshit! that TDI enttry....
+MrDreamer121 Fun enough for a like and share ;)
Yup.. Goosebumps!
Damn! You stole my words!
You probably dont care at all but does any of you know of a method to log back into an instagram account?
I was stupid forgot the password. I would appreciate any help you can give me.
@@jamesonlondon7081 there's a forgot password option on the login page try that
3:41 ! Just loved how the second Polo popped up in style !
Like NFS Most Wanted introducing Blacklist or something :P
Right !!!
i think that kind of scene is there in the sclass amg vs bmw 7 series review of topgear...
so true mahn!!! n the way they said.. the only thing that could get near to it is.... another polo n i jus blasted into the scene!!! uffff.... Awesomeness at its peak!!!! :)
+midul kasim I watched this video atleast 4 to 5 times, and the introduction of the POLO TDI is just awesome..
Outstanding review by Rohan and team..
2021 Still it gives Goosebumps 🔥
OLD IS GOLD..
Legendary Machine 🔥
The entry of gt tdi blows me away 😁😁 got goosebumps
Same here bro
My GT TSI completed 5 years last month. I love her ! No points in guessing which video made me take the final plunge ;)
And yes this is the 101th time I am watching this video yet the GT TDI entry gives me goosebumps. Every single time !
By far the best Indian Car review I have seen. You guys truly understand the phrase "Character of a Car". Where other automotive editorial giants in India would test the TSI's & TDI's too for rear-bench space, fuel economy and other whole loads of crap, you guys test the car for what its meant to be.
Awesome guys, really enjoy your videos, keep up the good work. Adios!!
Thanks Shalin Dhumal , We aren't editorial giants, but more of next door enthusiasts who have a BALL doing this! That helps we guess ;)
More than you can imagine. Videos such as this are like much needed shots of adrenaline :D. Who needs d giants, Love thy neighbours for being true enthusiasts ;)
Shalin Dhumal Found you!
2019♥️ It never gets outdated!🔥🔥

Me too!

@@ashithrao6767 hell yeah!🔥
I bought this in 2021 bro
Omg you are still alive
3 years into my GT TSI ownership , I still watch this video with as much excitement as I did, 3 years ago. Love the car! Love the review
I keep coming back to this video and to THAT entry of the TDI. It's mesmerizing for an enthusiast.
I think the modern day PowerDrift has lost some of it's charm, the raw enthusiast nature has gone out and the mass market review structure has been brought in
No offence to reviewers currently at PD like Cyrus, but they don't give out that enthusiastic feel like Rohan gave. I hope to see more of such content.
interesting review by powerdrift (esp where he says "the only thing which can get close and possibly beat it is another polo..and the blue tdi appears in the background).....really got bored of leg room, head room, cup holders sort of monotonous reviews by autocar, autoportal etc...
Power drift is best
true that. enough with the cup holders. high time we went back to appreciating cars for the mechanical Marvels that the y are
Autoportal is a Bitch, Ignore that 5.5" Maniac
i dont know how many times i saw diz review. only bcoz of the way u captured it. it pulls me to watch it again amd again bcoz of d videography is awesome and also my love to polo gt.
That's incredible. Thank you! We hope you've also shared the video ahead.
DRIIIIIIIFTS............ JUST FILCHED MY HEART AWAY......... AND THE ONE WHICH HOLDS THE CROWN OF CYNOSURE IS WHEN TEN HUT ANNOUNCES THE ONLY RIVALRY OF THIS BEAUTY..... AND JOSE COMES UP WITH MONOLITHIC COMPETENCY IN EXTRAVAGANTLY SLOW MOTION.......... TEN HUT YOU DO A GREAT JOB WRITING THE REVIEWS......AND THE CINEMATOGRAPHY AND EDITING TEAM...THE ONLY THING I CAN DO IS BOW DOWN..........;)
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK GUYS, AND THIS ONE IS TO FOLKS.... KEEP LOVING, SHARING AND SUBSCRIBING TO POWERDRIFT [THEY ARE SPELL BOUNDING]....;)
I'll be honest. I dont think you can ever make a review like that again ! Everything else on PD pales in comparison. This was your Mona Lisa . Wow.
exactly. 6 months since I bought the GT TSI. I still watch this video and get goosebumps
wooow so coolllll
Sandeep Mishra The way GT TDI comes from behind of rohan's TSI made me buy my POLO GT TDI #noexaggeration. And it's 1st birthday is coming up this 5th of December 2015. This video made me buy my dream car without hesitation. True masterpiece.
Manas Gharat wooow congratz brooo. i hope u had lot of fun within an year on ur polo gt tdi
Manas Gharat exactly same here. This video was the inspiration behind my GT TSI
Amazing video!!!! Got a GT TDI myself, and thoroughly enjoying it. The torque is too addictive that every time I am choked in traffic and get a stretch of free tarmac, I get a smile on my face on what’s coming next. A remap is definitely in my wish list and possibly I could do some drifting then, like you guys.. :-) Good work PowerDrift !!
The entry of Polo GT TDI in the review was akin to the entry of a dashing anti-hero in a hollywood movie! Like the devil just walked in! I couldnt stop myself from watching that section again! Slick editing job, guys! \m/
Hope you are watching it again, and may we recommend "sharing" it again as well ;)
Really it was very adrenaline pumping
The dark shade of the TDI fits in perfectly too!
Dear PowerDrift, still can't thank you guys enough for the superb Polo GT TDI review for the previous edition, which taking ur word for it, I actually went ahead and bought one.
Yes, the GT TDi - reason, you have already emphasized that well in your this video. the brilliant shifting manual stick and bucket loads of Torque.
Thank You Powerdrift for putting a smile on my face on every mile I clock \m/
P.S - this video is even better and tyre smoking than the prev one...and I am sure the GT will find more homes after this ;)
PowerDrift : That Polo entry at 3.41, Beauty!! And Rohan, the way you review, I'm a FAN.. You and Sagar are the coolest..
Avinash Naik Did it send goosebumps down your spine?
PowerDrift Yeah.. I wud love to try it once.. :)
Watching it in 2023. Goosebumps when the gt Tdi enters. Proud owner of my 8 years old polo TDI, 1.4 Lack kms and still going strong . ❤️
Wow man wow I keep watching dis particular review of u guys of Volkswagen polo again n again... U guys enhanced the beauty of car pretty well n love d way u all present it... My favorite company is Volkswagen n its a request to d team of powerdrift, plz give a proper review of new Vento 2015 TDI automatic in ur style wanna knw proper depth review of dis car... I knw u guys review will do justice to dis wonderfull car Volkswagen vento...
Your reviews are so damn good..i swear to god, you could sell me a Nano for the price of a Fortuner.
John Byce Damn! Hahahahah!
John Bryce hahahahaha
I bow to you in all reverence, You Guys are GODS of motor vehicle reviews.
I follow a lot of motor review channels but nothing comes even close!!!
I would say keep it up guys, but seems like you are already beating your scores by sky high margins!
All the best for your future endeavors.
Mayank Balpande We are overwhelmed to read your comment. Do stay tuned for more motoring action. :)
Guys ....guys ....guys ...that was one freaking damn awesome review !!.......just couldn't stop watching it again and again ..... TDI entry!!!! literally blew me off!!!!... Watched it so many times that I've spotted the wheel arch mounted cameras and oh no.!!.. Someone in a red t-shirt behind the wheels in the cornering session !!!!!!oops..and Rohan I'm a fan of you
...keep motoring guys. Big thumbs up!!!!!!
+Sidharth Sathyan Oh yeah!! We do not mind the annihilation of the replay button! And may we entitle you with " Mr. Sniper Eyes" :P
PowerDrift You guys are just awesome...this was the first review from
team PD that I've watched and there was no turning back.....now that I've heard about the 3 rd blockbuster on the way ,all excited and waiting...'about the replay button'- well got sick of the buffering,went ahead and downloaded it in full HD.;) and once more "Mr sniper eyes" is all waiting for the 3 rd blockbuster.....kepp revving guys..#PDarmy
5:24, my wallpaper..!!!!!!!
Polo is my all time favourite and your vid makes me cry in happiness. the editing does justice to the cars , but does the 175 nm vs 250 nm of torque make much of a diffference?and again an amazing video guys !!
:DDDD
3:48 Goosebumps. Great review guys!!
which one is good car..bcz i m lot of confuse between tsi and tdi,,please help,, next month i buy,,what i don't know which one? thanx power drift..
Boys, will be boys,
and
MEN will become boys, after seeing your review, wow, some real fancy driving too, in the corners, good ....
Guys, great review,
Well I had requested you guys to do a review of the VW Vento TDI, while it still came out with the 1.6 litre heart, it is now, of course out of production.
I again, request you to do a review, of the new Vento TDI and TSI, with the new 1.5 litre and the 1.2 litre heart
Please guys, request from A boy to the boys @ Power Drift.
Great job guys !!!
Thanks again for the wonderful videos
Prashanth Nagabhushan Hey, as of now we are unable to get access to the Vento and hence the shortcoming on the review. However, we shall try our absolute best to get it done. Do keep liking and sharing our videos till then.
last week i bought a GT TSI and this is the video which i watched previously. And I am still watching this review especially that TDI entry after a gap of silence. Editing and videography is absolutely great.
Deepu J.S. GT tdi here ... cheers 👍
Deepu J.S. GT tdi here ... cheers 👍
i own a polo GT TDI 1.5 and is amazing. it is vey sturdy, reliable and fun to drive. volkswagen after all. it never gets outdated. An awesome review of both the cars by you all.
PD you ppl have been doing some great reviews and yeah there's just one question to ask for I need a hatchback under 10 lakhs and with a really good comfort while driving.Does POLO TSI falls in place with all the pretty decent specs and the comfort zone for the drivers who drives it ?
Even after 6 years... Watching it several times during this period... I can certainly say.... THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO OF ANY CAR SO FAR!!
So best to inspire someone to buy car...To inspire me to buy Polo GT tsi. PROUD OWNER OF POLO GT!!!
Excellent video...just need to have a consistent microphone performance and the background music is a tad bit too loud...but I enjoyed watching the video, well done guys
Looks like it went to mono audio between 1:00 to 2:00
***** That is not the case here. Sounds fine to me.
+Visbalalam hear through some good sound system.
If I plan to buy GT TDI that's only because of this video and that entry :)
PURE AWESOMESNESS u guys r!!!!!! the way u guys take the shots.. the way u guys speaks it out.... BIG TOAST to all the Powerdrift crews!!! n this is far more the best review video i have ever seen. keep up the momentum guys.. u guys r really hitting the peak :)))) n thanks for this review videos also:)))
midul kasim Hey hey! Thank you Midul for such a lovely comment. Do keep liking, commenting and sharing! :)
The Abarth Punto now please PD! Well i have already requested you to review the Abarth Avventura in a comment on the not so very practical old Avventura's review video... but this engineering marvel now for the first time has a true competitor the Abarth Punto... PD has replied to all of my comments so far & that feels good! :) Keep up the good work!
+Avneesh Dwivedi Hell yeah! A launch alert video coming up soon :)
+PowerDrift COOL! Thanks PD! This excitement for the Abarth was expected from you :P
Awesome edits in all your videos to be frank!!! I am fan of diesel cars, and the entry of the tdi was just awesome.!!!!!!!!!!
i have no idea why i watch this again and again.... love the music... love the editing works... love the camera movements... oh mann... i even downloaded this!!!
Man, the intro of POLO TDI is awesome. Wonderful editing....
I bumped into this video a little too late .. really great presentation and like most people have already mentioned.. the entry of the TDI was the catch in this video.. great job.. I’m up for a polo now.. can’t decide GT TSI or GT TDI.. suggestions are welcome..
porag buragohain If you're concerned about mileage, go for GT TDI. If mileage is not a problem then go for TSI. But TSI comes only with the dsg automatic gearbox.
#25MillionOnPD the way this video begins and how you sum up everything is truly wonderful . best video by powerdrift .
+Akash Shah Thank you so very much :D
your review did justice to vw polo..thanks team
The only thing that can get closer and possibly beat a Powerdrift review is... Another Powerdrift review. You guys are the undisputed leaders of the car review segment.
+Jai Hind Cheers! Do not forget to like and share.
2020 and it never gets outdated.. Best review ever made.. Love it. ❤❤❤
My 2014 Polo GT TSI is precisely 35 days old and I must tell you, this vid STILL gave me goosebumps! #DasAuto
dude...you blew my mind off with that gt tdi entry
What differentiates your reviews from other reviews is that you guys are true petrolheads...or should i say motorheads...and that clearly reflects in your videos....just love the energy and passion....keep up the awesome work guys...cheers!!! :D
Rahul Raja Keep the loved coming buddy. Thanks a ton for your appreciation. :)
And here I am booking the Manual Polo TSI in 2022 with a 4-5 month waiting period! Hope to get it soon..
7+ years, still the best!
Watched this video 10 times. Now I've booked my gt tsi :-) Awesome review guys!
Ashok KP Ahem ahem! #WeWantAParty
This review convinced me to buy a gt tdi. A proud and happy owner now!👍
3:42 OMG that gt tdi entry 🤪
Guys just need a little info...Fiat punto abarth...is it gonna be released in India anytime soon...i am torn between going for the VW polo gt or waiting for the punto abarth... guess the scorpion would trump the polo in all departments except maybe build quality..watsay???
AAMIR KAZMI There is no official news on that front! :(
Holy fuck, that TDI entry gave me goosebumps!
Us too!
Sick job editing the video , the review is awesome!
Drakey Productions Hope you got your cure for this sickness. :P
PowerDrift Help me senpai, which one should i buy? Polo Higline TDI or the GT TDI? will i notice any big difference?
Drakey Productions u got that answer :p :p
Guys, this is one of the best reviews ever... for any car available in India. Both exciting and engaging...
Keep up the great work...
Cheers!
Nilesh Vedi Thank you for the appreciation buddy! :)
Which is best to buy please suggest..
Polo i20 or baleno...petrol and diesel in both segment???
+Anurag Sharma
Depends on what your need is ..
Polo: Car enthusiast, Electrifying engine, Driving Pleasure, Class, Power, Finest quality interiors, Polo is a darling anytime!
Baleno and Elite: Comparatively low on maintenance costs, Negligible fuel economy compared to Polo.
Coming to Petrol or Diesel (Below inputs are only in Fuel Economy perspective)
Petrol: For weekend usage and urban drives
Diesel: For daily usage, urban and highway drives
The best review PD ever created. God knows how many times I have been watching this. Oohhh man, the entry of GT TDi is just goosebumpstic (I don’t know whether it’s a word. Refer a dictionary)
Hahahaha! Thanks Kashyab!
Mark the tweet. This car will be a classic and sort after by next gen.
Which tyre brand would suit the polo GT Tsi ?
Thanks powerdrift and Tenhut for bringing this. I may differ from a lot others, but PD is incomplete without the touch of Tenhut. Man i love your reviews and intros.
Keep churning"!
Drive safe!
Abhishek //M
p.s. hows ur cbr fireblade doing?
TDI entry is awesome ! that evil BG.
Just love this f**king car man...!
Polo would eat i20 elite for breakfast...
i20 is sure a good looking car.. But this German machine is best in terms of driving dynamics. Just love VWs
Rishi Sharma Yeah, with torque shooting right off the roof, the Polo is a stunner when it comes to performance.
would it be right to go with the gt tdi over the gt tsi as their price is identical and also the diesel one comes with a manual gearbox??
Vento diesel manual or automatic which one to choose?
wow. the TDI Entry. Better than most of Bollywood films.
I am bit confused between the Polo gt TDI and Ford Figo TDCI please suggest as I am planning to buy one of them..BTW your all reviews are great.
I am looking for performance tyres for Polo GT TDI. I was looking for Bridgestone Potenza My-02 195/60 R15 88V. Is it a good option? The recommended ones by Polo according to the Rims is 185/60 R15 84H. Can you please recommend?
The entry of GT TDI mmaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!
All the devilish charm it brought in made me fall in love with it all over again..!!
You guys are best in making the motor vehicle reviews in India.
Hope to see your own TV spot someday!! Good luck guys!
Kuldeep Singh Bisht Cheers to that Kuldeep. If you liked the video, then hit us up with a LIKE & a SHARE. :D
Finally folks who do an ace job at edits and camera work to match up to the reviews and in this case... the machines.
Powerdrift rules!
Yay! We hope you have seen our earlier work as well! We weren't that bad! ;)
I am at that phase of my life when I am going to buy myself some BHP. But what is confusing me is GT TDI VS GT TSI. Yes I love torque but I love the nature of a peppy engine too. PD army help me to choose.
P.S The way you said " What can come close to a polo is ANOTHER POLO" This line here gave me goosbumps. Well Directed my mate.
TDI for heavy usage, TSI for fun in oodles!
Does this mean it , TDI , lacks somewhere ?
I'm still watching this video. That TDI entry was just amazing. you guys are fantastic. top notch !!
This is The Best VW Polo review I've ever seen... period... Great shots... Great Video editing... Great presentation... Great Hosts too... Good job...👏👏👏
Watching this review every once in a while is my ritual. What a production the team pd has done for this one. Kudos to them.
sooo, the only difference between the indian version and the indonesian version of the Polo TSI is the badge?
because in my country, we have the same spec as yours, but it was listed as a Polo 1.2 TSI.
I'm intrigued that the Indian made VW Polo is priced under the top of the line Honda Jazz RS 1.5l petrol, but VW only offer 2 years of free service while Honda gave 5 years of free service and cheaper service costs. But I couldn't get my mind off that DSG transmission! it's so good and quick, even better than the sporty automatic response of the jazz
here jazz comes with 1.2l engine, 1.5l is reserved for Honda city.
that's absurd, must be underpowered like hell :(
I know that because my mom bought a japanese spec jazz GD1 with a 1.3l iDsi, and it's too underpowered :( and not fun at all.
Awesome video !!! I bought new polo 1.2 L high line petrol last year , after few long drives kinda repenting it , the 3cyl engine doesn't feel good , its very noisy and has noticeable turbo lag at higher speeds..its good for city driving though. After watching this video i wish i had bought the GT variant or at least the 1.5 l diesel engine :(
1.2 L 3 cyl petrol that you have does'nt come with Turbocharger so how do you get turbo lag.?!.The GT has 4 cylinders and a Turbocharger plus direct injection.
kashish katyal i meant it lacks that punch when we cross 100kmph and is very noisy at those speeds .
3:39(heart stopped beating)-3:49(again started beating)........ phenomenal.
Haha!
Hey guys, I'm a new driver on the roads of vashi !
Planning to buy a new car for me, quite confused between the polo GT TDi and i20 elite ASTA(the diesel one).
Would like to know your views about these 2, n which one wolud be a better option for me !
Plz help me out guys !!
This review of the polo is just amazing, hats off to the powerdrift team.
But I still have a question in my mind troubling me, which polo would be recommended in Goa the GT TSI or the TDI because here in Goa petrol is cheaper than diesel and the on-road price of both the polo's is almost the same I guess .
Archit Thanekar Look at your long term prospect and then make a move. The petrol comes with a DSG clutchbox, tempting isn't it?
just love the moment when you say "any thing that can come close and beat is ..... Another polo" ... Absolutely amazing camera work .
Shobhit Sharma Thank you :) Awaiting your comments on our newer videos too!
not sure exactly how many times, but at least 50 times I have watched this video.
I am so impressed with the video that I couldn't like any other hatchback. Not the GT but managed to buy Polo TDI.
Kudos to PowerDrift!!!
I own a gt tdi but 1.6 version of it... Nd i m really happy vid my car, ur old gt tdi's review had pulled my heart towards it. Nd i m really happy i havnt bought the 1.5 version as one of my friends hav 1.5 nd i used to beat him on highways, 😁 lol
+chahat mangat Hahaha Cheers! Hope you drive safe. Do not forget to press that like button. :)
Can i just upgrade my vw polo's interior & also frm front as vw polo gt....and also that black shade on rear spoiler looks awesome
+Sachin Kaul Yes you can. But it would be a very expensive proposition.
I am confuse between VW Ameo diseal automatic And polo gt tsi
is there any difference as both use both 7 speed dual cluch
why there's GT in polo and not in ameo?
Which one u brought
the only reason i love powerdrift is the way they present the videos...!! nice editing nice background scores... !!! feels like watching a movie rather than a review!!!!
That being said, we certainly hope you have subscribed to our channel and have channel notifications on.
of course i have subscribed!!!
I became a fan of u guys bcz the way u direct a video is awesome. N not only this video. Most of the videos of ur are awesome bcz u show it like a movie n hero plays a role n suddenly it's rival comes n that moment I have loved it. Previous I have also saw ur videos of brezza.
Hahaha! Thank you so much Nagaraj! :)
I never thought that I ever see any car review again again
Excellent video, excellent cars, even better drifting :D
BTW, what happened to the VBOX that you guys were using on the bike reviews?
Also, would have loved to see the needles hit the redline in a 0-100 footage.
bellicromanx Thank you mate! This car is pure enjoyment with performance and brilliant acceleration. Who wants to check the top speed? :P
which dsg gearbox does polo gt TSI come with ? Dq 200 ?
+Mihirt Yes it does have the DQ 200
I heard from various users that POLO GT Tsi suffers from serious DSG issues like loss of power and jerking during shifts. Powerdrift / long term users please please clarify as to if this issue has been resolved? I am seriously contemplating on buying this one.
Datz not true ! No power loss n no jerking . Its one of d best gear box 👍
should i take 120(diesel) or the polo gt tdi
@powerdrift can you also if possible make an informational video on "tyres" like here you suggested for a Goodyear .Like why and how should choose one ??
3:45 best entry ever🔥
what is your opinion between elite i20 and polo gt tdi off the top of your head?
You guys should do a comparison review for the premium hatch segment. Love your video PP. Btw, i20 elite comes with rake and rash and also suitable for 6 footers.
Powerdrift's car review is yet to surpass this. Your bike reviews keeps getting better and better. Perhaps punto abarth review can fix it?
We are all trying to learn after all. Thank you for your feedback :)
May we also suggest you to watch this- ua-cam.com/video/Pma-u-x-3kA/v-deo.html
I have seen all your videos :).
Can someone share me the link to the background score that kicks in at around 5:24!!! Powerdrift, amazing video.... Wish to see more detailed car reviews rather than just launch alerts!!!
+Rajarshi Sarker Head down to our Top Music section. ;)
The only car review I remember then and now and forever.... 🙌
What cinematography :) Great work guys ..
what is the background score specifically at 3 38
+krishna deepak These are from a private sound back!
watching it for the 3rd time... 3.46..the way you captured tdi almost gave me goosebumps...its as if an entry of a superstar in a movie with all the music and that drift.nice done.keep it up
