Always on the front foot.2
The new Polo is equipped with the genius Front Assist with City Emergency Brake and Pedestrian Monitoring. This uses a radar sensor to detect when a vehicle or pedestrian suddenly enters your path without warning and can automatically apply the brakes to reduce the likelihood of a collision.
Using acoustic and visual signal to warn the driver, the vehicle prepares itself for hard braking. If the driver fails to react, the system automatically performs emergency braking. Taking the drama out of any unexpected situations.

Cruise on through.
The cruise control system with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) lets you set the speed you want to travel and the gap you want to allow between you and the car in front. Using a radar sensor, the car then maintains your speed and your distance.

Keep an extra eye out.
The Blind Spot Sensor uses an LED display in the exterior mirror to alert you to potential dangers in your blind spot. It works in conjunction with the Rear Traffic Alert system, which monitors traffic passing at the rear of the vehicle. If your car comes too close to another vehicle, you will be alerted by an audible and visual warnings.

Take the drama out of parking.
The Park Assist system in the new Polo lets you park like a machine. When parking, it scans the side of the road for the perfect spot, and once engaged, automatically steers itself into a parallel parking space or parking bay. When you’re ready to leave, it can steer itself out again - clever.

Be prepared for emergencies.
The Proactive Occupant Protection system detects dangerous situations and automatically takes precautionary actions. The windows and the sunroof are closed to a small gap, to optimise the effect of the head and side airbags, and the front seat belts are tensioned. Once the danger passes, the belts are loosened and the side windows and sunroof can be opened again.
