Volkswagen Group
of America CEO Stefan Jacoby has confirmed that VW is going to sell the small Polo in the US.
VW feels that following last summer's record gas prices, US consumers are more open to smaller more fuel efficient vehicles. Eventually gas prices are going to rise again, which would increase demand for a vehicle like the Polo.
The Polo fits in between the Toyota Yaris and Honda Fit in terms of size.
Volkswagen development chief Ulrich Hackenberg recently told the Automotive News that "The small-car segment is the fastest growing segment in the U.S. and that Oil prices will rise again and that will drive small car sales up further.”
It's not known when the Polo will go on sale in the US, but production could take place at Volkswagen’s Puebla, Mexico plant.

VW is planning on selling two versions of its compact Polo in the US, a sedan that is smaller than the current Jetta and a four-door hatchback that will be roomier than the model unveiled in Geneva earlier this month.
Volkswagen Group of America CEO Stefan Jacoby claims that both versions will be designed specifically for the U.S. Jacoby recently spoke with the Automotive News and stated that although the new Polo is larger than its predecessor, its still too small for the US market. The US version will be taller and have a larger wheelbase.
"It's more like a cross between a compact minivan and a hatchback. In other words, it's more like the Honda Fit," Jacoby said.
Jacoby also said the Polo must be priced between $13,000 and $15,000 in the United States. Sales could start in 2011.
Si c'est une version speciale de la Polo juste pour l'amerique ca renforce l'idée qu'elle soit faite au Mexique.... c'est quand meme cute... dommage que ce soit un char de marde
