3008 is a crossover between SUV, MPV and hatchback, while Golf is a performance hatchback..

I suggest you to go test drive both cars to find out which suits you....

torque same as Civic 1.8 but starts at 1.5k rpm... what do you think?

i test drove 3008 before, its a big laggy maybe because of the less powerful engine compare to TSI... GOLF not yet since is not in yet and coming soon only...

Polo 1.2L 105PS still not enough?? thanks to its turbocharge that boost the power on par with 1.5L and 1.6L cars..

The bigger picture is 175Nm starting @1500rpm which is a killer... not many cars have such performance..

Sometimes is not about the Power but Torque is also important for pickup and fuel economy...

very impressive car performance for a 1.2 all thanks to the turbo charger. Thinking of getting one for my wife.

polo is good, if u don't mind small space for a long journey. What makes it better is the powerful small engine and yet very economy

test drive first then decide. Good luck

No, the passat variant doesn't come with the 1.4. The 1.4twin I was referring to is the Golf.

its good to know the polo is good for long journey ?...

have to test drive myself then... Thanks~

yep, that's wise thing to do
enjoy!!

supercharger.. u've test driven polo 1.2 tsi is it? how's it?

Yup.. Tech sheet is pretty impressive

not yet, only available in Sept. Me too looking forward for the test drive.
But I've driven the old model, it was so fun

errmmm guys I saw in the internet that Golf 1.4 TFSI starting from 148,888.00 previously 155,888.00. True ka? VW giving early bird discount...???? Bugger..i just bought Madza3 for my missus..should have waited and get the Golf instead...

could be a mistake from vw.. or just simply farked up pricing.. remember polo gti? it was RM140k when it was first launched.. after a few months, the price dropped to RM99k! really pity who have bought it earlier..

that price without 'light and sound' package..

RM148,888.00 = Golf 1.4
RM155,888.00 = Golf 1.4 + light & sound package.

Light & sound package includes
• Bi-xenon headlights for high and low beam with integrated turn signal indicator
• Cornering light system: static and dynamic bending
• Dynamic headlight-range adjustment
• Front fog lights
• Headlight cleaning system
• MEDIA-IN USB/iPod media interface

in terms of power, should be enough if you're expecting the power of a 1.5L and torque of 1.8L, even better as its from lower rpm. but numbers are numbers, go test drive to feel yourself

from this video, the sprint to 100kph is quick

Added on August 24, 2010, 2:54 pmas the people here said it's from different package, yeah i remember the polo gti went from rm139k to rm99k and now i see on mudah being sold for 100-110k, who said polo got bad resale value? that's more than 100% of original price

the resale value of the polo gti is not too clear.. those who bought at rm99k are selling the car around that price also.. but loan amount is only rm85k.. so 2nd hand value is about rm90k++.. that's not bad.. but the normal 1.4 polo a bit tak laku
i believe the new polo will have a good resale value.. because it is so much better than the old one.. very keen to get one, but i will hold my purchase until DRB announce which model they will CKD.
