There are only a few cars that are unmistakably South African 🇿🇦
I give you the Mzansi-built Volkswagen Polo Vivo Life 👏🏼
This one is specifically the 1.6-litre Tiptronic.
Almost every South African has had a Polo in the family (or still does), and everyone has a story about theirs.
This isn’t just a car — it’s a symbol of what freedom has made possible in our country. It became a stepping stone in building the backbone of what we know today as South Africa.
Today, it stands firm in the hatchback market as a local favourite — and has held the title of best-selling car for more months than we can count.
It’s powered by a naturally aspirated 1.6-litre 4-cylinder petrol engine (not turbocharged), producing 77 kW and 153 Nm of torque.
Fuel consumption: ~5.5 L/100 km (claimed).
Pricing starts at R320,200,
including a 3-year / 120,000 km warranty and a 3-year / 45,000 km service plan.
