T&T OFFICIAL New Vehicle Prices & Discussion Thread

Price went up by 4K after VAT was reduced ... I smell a rat.

So after VAT drop the car price rose by $11375 for no apparent reason.

Very nice! Wonder how big it is in person..

Saw it selling in the New Zealand market as well

[drchaos]

Its a raised polo essentially. Cousin had one in Grenada bought new from the firm but was a lemon so now she hates vw.

[carluva]

VW strikes again

[scotty_buttons]

Ohh. Like the XV is to the Impreza.
Outback is to the Legacy.
That super for a 1.6T kinda suspect though..

[DJ Q]

It's supposed to be in the low to mid 200s
A VW rep told me about this last time I was there.

[jhonnieblue]

That price to hot tho. For a 1.6t..these dealers just raking in cash

[urbandilema]

And digging out oui eyes

[scotty_buttons]

Not seeing any 1.6t petrol engines for it tho. Or any 1.6t petrol VAG engines for that matter. It's probably a 1.2t or 1.4t petrol.
The 1.6 were tdi engines as far as I've read.

Edit : there's a 1.6 NA petrol engine version sold in South Africa. That would explain the super gas.

[drchaos]

250k for a raised polo with a NA engine? They gonna need all the luck in the world to sell that ... Will try to confirm some of the details for y'all.

[jhonnieblue]

Actually the reviews I saw said it was the same height..not raised

[baigan]

Looks pretty nice

[drchaos]

Ok so found out its gonna sell for 199K with a 1.6 NA engine, nil dsg will come with traditional automatic. I was wrong on it being raised, jhonnieblue is correct its not raised ... both polo and cross polo have same ground clearance but the cross polo is about 20mm taller.

[jhonnieblue]

that price smh..not worth it for a polo honestly. Should be closer to 160

[drchaos]

The main problem for me is the lack of a turbo ... 1.6 NA??? If people wanted a car with a 1.6 NA engine they could go buy a toyota or something ... Did the regular polo they used to bring in have a turbo?

Regular polo was a non turbo 1.4 .... I think the biggest problem is it's ugly and VW has a growing stain of unreliability locally. Cheap cars need to just work.

Looks ok to me

A friend bought a Creta and had a good look at it.
Extremely well equipped vehicle for the price, even has a better infotainment unit than the Tucson. Also very spacious.

Only thing I didn't like was the build quality, looked very cheap and noticed metal panels in the engine bay that should have welded held together with resin/epoxy. Still overall its not bad.

Could be selling off used cars from their rental division.

Would be careful ... heard of a higher rate of piston cracking in Jetta's from the used car department as renters mainly fill up with super.
