Since there’s probably no better place to test a speedy pocket rocket than the ‘Ring, that’s exactly where Volkswagen brought their all-new fully camouflaged next generation Polo GTI for testing.

Despite the dizzying array of patterns, the car’s overall shape is very VW-ish, showing us its five-door body style, sporty wheels and large twin tailpipes.

Engine-wise, where the regular Polo is expected to feature a pair of small turbocharged 1.0-liter units as well as 1.5-liter petrol and diesel engines, the GTI should pack something with a little more punch, possibly more capable the the current model’s 192 PS 1.8-liter TSI, but surely more efficient.

Other than its performance, the new Polo GTI should benefit from whatever VW engineers are planning for the regular model, which will feature a longer wheel base (by 90 mm/3.5 in), more room inside, better interior quality and so-called “big-car technology”.

This means smartphone connectivity and app integration through Apple CarPlay & Android Auto, and possibly the largest touchscreen in the segment at 9.5″.

Let us know what you would like to see from the all-new VW Polo GTI in terms of performance.
