Volkswagen has launched its new hot hatch in the Indian market, the Polo GT TSI. With this launch the Polo now becomes even more attractive for the customers providing a choice of both efficient diesel and petrol engines.

TSI is a pioneering technology of petrol engines by Volkswagen. TSI engines are compact, high powered and use less fuel thereby successfully implementing the downsizing concept.
