Volkswagen Polo R WRC Street previews production VW Polo R

Volkswagen Polo R WRC Street The Volkswagen Polo R WRC Street that’s heading for the Worthersee Tour previews a production model of the VW Polo R.

VW make no mention of a 4WD platform for the Polo R in the stuff they’ve sent us, but with a 4WD version of the Polo platform developed for the Audi S1 and the Polo WRC car it seems likely VW’s new baby pocket rocket will be 4WD too.

The Government’s £37 million package of benefits also includes additional measures for local authorities to install on-street charging posts and rapid chargers.
