Along with the update for the fourth generation of the Polo, the German automaker introduced an unusual version of it, the CrossPolo, which tried to break into the crossover segment.
In 2005, Euro 4 emission standards were imposed, so most carmakers had to either refresh their vehicles or launch new generations for them. Volkswagen introduced a facelift for the Polo range, and that included new standard safety features and new or improved engines. In addition, the carmaker brought the CrossPolo.
The carmaker took a regular five-door Polo and reworked its suspension. In addition to the higher ground clearance, the automaker added new bumpers and side sills that sported a bi-tone color scheme. Thus, the lower part was black, creating the illusion of even higher ground clearance. Moreover, the wheel arches received black plastic trims in an off-road style. Last but not least, the new CrossPolo was gifted with silver roof rails, an option that was not available for the rest of the Polo range.
Inside, the carmaker added specific colors and trims for the CrossPolo when compared to the rest of the range. The most noticeable change was for the steering wheel, which received silver spokes instead of the black ones featured on the regular Polo. Just like its siblings, the crossover version offered a pair of bucket seats at the front and a split-folding bench at the rear. That expanded the trunk area from 270 liters (9.5 cu-ft) to 1,030 liters (36,3 cu-ft).
Under the hood, the carmaker offered a very wide engine choice, starting with a refreshed 1.2-liter gasoline engine and ending with a punchy, 1.9-liter 130-hp turbo-diesel unit. Depending on the options, it was available with a five- or six-speed manual or automatic transmission.
