VW’s British arm today announced that it is introducing DAB radio as a standard feature from the Polo to the Phaeton (no, the Up isn’t mentioned) in an effort to meet customer demand for this.

Of course, all VW audio systems will still be able to pick up conventional FM or AM analogue radio signals, not just the new digital signal, as well as play audi CDs and MP3 files. In addition to that, VW is also making the aux-in socket a standard feature, while all the models from the Polo S upwards come with at least six speakers.

“Digital radio not only offers listeners clear, crackle-free sound, but it also gives them a bigger choice of radio stations than is available through conventional FM or AM broadcasts alone.  Listening options range from specialist music stations to comedy, current affairs and, of course, the all-important cricket coverage.” a company statement reads.
