[Resolved]  Volkswagen Polo To India In Early 2010 — Volkswagen India plans to launch the redesigned VW Polo hatchback in the first half of 2010.

MUMBAI, India — Volkswagen India plans to launch the redesigned VW Polo hatchback in the first half of 2010.

At a recent event, Neeraj Garg, director of VW Passenger Cars, said the Indian automotive market "holds a special position in our strategy, and going forward we will launch the Polo hatchback by early 2010."

Test runs have already started for the Polo at company's Chakan plant near Pune. Based on the test results, this mass-market compact will be made available to Indian buyers once the final alterations are done.

The Polo has also been spotted testing on Mumbai roads, indicating the car is on the final phase of pre-production evaluations.

VW India has registered substantial growth in sales compared with last year, and it hopes to take the numbers to 3,000 units for the current year — nearly double the 1,566 units it sold in 2008.

VW India introduced its first offering, the Passat, in September 2007, followed by the Jetta in July 2008.

We are very disappointed on purchase of Volkwagon Jetta (INDIA) a NON professional attitude of Company as well as Dealer "swami automotive" Ready to sell the vehicles, and want to get rid of this product.
i am iti holder
pl provide the technical specifications & features of all variants of polo.Also give wide publicity to technical specifications & features to grab the indian market.thanks.mobile no [protected]
I need to share the initial experience with reaching to the dealer to book the new Polo.
The booking process requires us to pay 50000/- (Fifty thousand) to get delivery after 4 months for Deseil varient.
Hope this information is published by VW advertisements in the media, as consumers definately calculate the interest lost for 50K for 4 months.
There are alternate ways to get confirmation of the booking by post dated cheque or other bank guarantees than customers loosing the interest and dealers making money.

I am thinking of droping the idea of booking as of now.

I had booked Chevrolet Beat LT Model - Green color from Kun Automobiles, Hyderbad on 28th February 2010 with 2 weeks delivery commitment. However, after 2 weeks Showroom starts telling delivery can be made after 45 days only as there is no stock.
Then I cancelled booking of Chevy Beat and booked VW Polo 1.2 Trend Line model from Orion Motors Hyderbad on 13th March 2010 with an advance amount of Rs. 50,000 and delivery commitment of 4 weeks. Now, after 4 weeks also car is not delivered to me. Even dealer is not in a position to commit any revised delivery date. Now, they are asking me to purchase VW Polo 1.2 Comfortline higher version with Rs. 60000 extra. As that model can be delivered fast. Now, the situation is something like I have done mistake by booking the VW Polo 1.2 Trend Line model.

This is the way VW can't do good business in India when competition is so tuf.
Its really surprising that the dealers themself dont know anything about when they are going to get the black color or the other color options, when enquired they are unable to commit anything. VW should take the things seriously because there are many rumors going around regarding technicall problems in the car, cars being exported to get the cost benefit and depriving the indian buyers, if that is the case why do business in india. But never expected such a response from my dream company like VW, then how will one trust them for after sale service. I have booked the car in march and same as others waiting waiting and the delears dont respond the calls, because they have no information to share or something they dont want public to know.

srk
i have booked the trend line model but the delivery time is 4 months this is too much of time. they should have started the production much before the ad.so that they could deliver the car on time and maintain the reputation of so many years. neerav tanna

Sir,
I am displeased to write this to you about not getting my booked car in time. Story goes like this, I visited your dealer (Viraj Distributor Pvt Ltd Lucknow U.P.) in second week of May 2010. I was told by salesman that if I book now I will get the car somewhere in August 2010 i.e. waiting period of about 3 months. I was about to book I20 hyundai, same day I get a call from one of the salesman by name Mr Nadeem Siddiqui. He asked me to book the car (Polo silver colour comfort line) which will be delivered between 14 to 20th june2010.I booked the car by paying Rs 50,000 Book no.004, receipt no.184 on 25.05.10. Today is 20th June and I have not got the car. Your dealer is saying they are not responsible for the delay. You tell me who is responsible for the delay? I kept on inquiring about status, dealer kept on giving false promises saying it may come in this trailer, which was to come on 19th June.
I am totally disappointed with you people, you claim that you are the world best company, which way you are the best I don’t know. I have Maruti zen, let me tell you they are better than you. Your distributor kept on showing on computer about delivery status which was clearly showing 14 to 20th June2010. I can’t wait so long, I want clear reply from you, let me know the date. Who will pay for all this harassment & delay in my schedule, please explain.
Thanks

myself vikrant singh booked a polo diesel through mr ujwaldeep singh kyashyap motors noida on 06 .04 .10 now from two months nor ujjwaldeep nor arshad attend my call i went three times to agency but all says talk to ujjwaldeep or arshad i massage toarshad &mail to him but no reply . can i complain to goverment to sought out my problem ?
I am not sure about other Cities but in Chennai there are only 2 VW dealers and guess what VW has given both the dealership in the city to the same company ABRA motors (One branch is in CIT nagar area and the other one is in Anna nagar area) Now ABRA motors has no one to compete with and is on its own cool way doesnt care a damn about customer attention or care.

Booked the vehicle on April 10, 2010 and after so many days of wait and follow up , they tell me the vehicle will arrive in 5 days on 9th July,2010 so i get my cheque ready for payment and call them on Friday to take the delivery of the car , they give me stories about truck has not yet arrived , its in bangalore and then Representative says it should have reached chennai , we need to check with transporter . After me calling them day after day they tell me the truck driver has switched off his mobile ..hahaha what a JOKE

During the VW VENTO launch this is what THE HINDU BUSINESSLINE July 7th Reported about Mr Neeraj Garg, Member of Board and Director

He added, “Waiting period for the Polo is four-six months. Whatever commitments we make to the customer, we've been able to honour that. There have been few cancellations by customers — around 30 to 40 from time to time.”

I personally love VW POLO , but going through this hardship is not worth it, this is second hand treatment given to Indian customers with no one taking responsibility . Imagine how the after sales of this Car is gonna be. I am going on Monday July 19th to cancel and get back my 50,000 Rs period . So VW car probably after 5 years when they have their so called Manufacturing plant ramped up . Off to my next car the Sportz i20 :-) Cheers and best of luck to everybody
VW polo is a crap,a friend of mine bought his VW the very first day he had a serious problem as he was driving with his family members and he was under dilema after finding that his brand new Volls Wagon POLO hit the road speed breakers and the car gets too low and absolutely no ground clearance at all when four people sits inside,
I have decided to change my choice of buying VW and now booked a much better ad reliable car,
So buyers beware!! do not forget to check and take a test drive with atleast three or four people inside so that you wont be investing in a wrong car

Volkswagen India
