Volkswagen has launched the new CrossPolo with a price tag of Rs 7.75 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), which is Rs 24,000 less than the Polo GT TSI. We were the first to break the story way back in December, 2012.

 

The CrossPolo is basically a Polo hatchback with additional body cladding. The ride height is slightly increased and a thick, matte plastic band extends across the chin, the flanks and around the rear. The wheel arches get the same treatment and there’s a scuff plate with a dull silver finish.
