Volkswagen, one of the most beloved automakers by the Brazilian public, is launching a replacement for the Fox, a car that marked a generation. The new popular car from Volkswagen is being pointed out as a strong competitor to the Kwid. According to Motor1, the Volkswagen Polo, the hatchback that became the best-selling car in Brazil, arrives in the 2025 lineup full of news and with a significant price increase.
Revealed The New Price Of Volkswagen’s ‘Popular Car’
Information from Motor1 also states that, among the changes to the new popular car from Volkswagen, is the introduction of a new version, called Robust, focused on agribusiness. However, the news that scares consumers the most is the price increase for the entry-level version, which now approaches R$ 90,000. For those who don’t know, it has been 14 years since the Fox was discontinued and the Polo came as its replacement. Now, simply put, this new Polo comes to rival the Kwid, which is also in the hatch category.
According to data from the automaker, with the arrival of the 2025 lineup, the brand adjusted the prices of all versions of the Volkswagen Polo. As a result, the increases ranged from R$ 1,300 to R$ 2,300. The entry-level version of Volkswagen’s popular car, the Polo Track, the most popular in the lineup, saw an increase of R$ 1,300, reaching R$ 89,290.
