Polo GTI Edition 25
The Volkswagen Polo GTI has turned 25, and to celebrate this milestone, the Polo GTI Edition 25 has been introduced. This special edition of the Polo GTI is the perfect mix of power, design, and style making it a perfect option to mark the occasion. Volkswagen are releasing just 2,500 units worldwide with just 350 coming to the UK, making it an incredibly exclusive car.
Exterior Features
The Polo GTI Edition 25 is all about style, and the sleek exterior design proves it. Ascot Grey is the chosen colour for this model, resulting in an elegant and sophisticated look. The bodywork is complemented by 18-inch Adelaide alloy wheels in black, and red painted brake calipers which give the car an aggressive and sporty look.
The black side-mirror adds subtle contrast to the overall look, while the LED light strip on the front between the headlights increases the car's recognition value. The distinctive GTI honeycomb radiator grill is a must-have. The overall effect of these features is a car that screams for attention and stands out from the standard Polo GTI.
Interior
The Polo GTI Edition 25's interior is equally impressive. High-quality upgraded details can be seen throughout the car, from the premium leather sports seats to the high-gloss black decorative trim on the dash panel. The powerful red accents on the seats, air vents, displays, GTI logos on the backrests, and decorative trim add a pop of colour that's typical of the GTI.
If you're a collector, you'll appreciate the "One of 2,500" lettering on the sill panel trim as a symbol of exclusivity. These details show that the Polo GTI Edition 25 is not just any car; it is a collector's item.
Technology
25 years ago, when the Polo GTI was first released, car enthusiasts were hugely impressed by the 120PS, lowered body and 0-62 mph time of just 9.1 seconds. The most recent Polo GTI offers almost double the power as the original, and still hasn’t lost any of the appeal.
Another standout feature is the change to the usual fitment of Volkswagen’s Sports Suspension. For the Edition 25, the suspension has been lowered by a further 15mm comparing to the standard Polo GTI. This is also paired with unique spring and damper tuning creating an incredibly sporty drive.
