When Volkswagen introduced the facelifted Polo last month, the redesigned supermini was only seen in regular trim. At the end of June, when the hot hatch variant is officially announced, the Polo, Life, and R-Line trim levels – which will replace Trendline, Comfortline, and Highline – will be topped by the GTI. Meanwhile, Wolfsburg has posted a concept sketch to help pass the time.

It's described as "sharper, dynamic, and power-packed," and it comes with Grand Touring Injection's signature red accents. It gets LED daytime running lights embedded in the honeycomb (faux) air intakes, much like its big brother Golf GTI, but just two modules instead of five. The red strip above the light bar, which was introduced with the facelift, is also borrowed from the Golf GTI, and we'd argue that these improvements give the B-segment output hatch a more offensive appearance.

Since VW is being tight-lipped about the engine, we'll remind you that the pre-facelift version had a turbocharged 2.0-liter gasoline engine with 197 horsepower (147 kilowatts) and 320 Newton-meters (236 pound-feet) of torque. Before the Polo GTI became a DSG-only vehicle, it was available with a six-speed manual transmission. The six-speed dual-clutch automatic achieved a maximum speed of 147 mph (237 km/h) and a 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) time of 6.7 seconds.

We expect the GTI to be well-equipped from the start, given its place at the top of the Polo food chain. VW admitted in January 2018 that the MQB A0 platform it's based on can handle more power, but it didn't commit to a GTI Performance variant or some other faster variant. With 217 horsepower on hand, the limited-run Polo R WRC Street unveiled in late 2012 remains the most powerful road-going Polo, so it's time for a new king of the hill.

If you need more fuel, the GTI is a must-have in the Polo lineup, as VW has chosen to skip the 1.5 TSI engine and its 150 horsepower once again. Despite the fact that it is available for the mechanically related SEAT Ibiza facelift and the new Skoda Fabia, the standard Polo is limited to the 1.0 TSI engine.

After around five weeks of shutdown due to the coronavirus crisis, Germany`s largest car manufacturer Volkswagen restarted production in two of its plants. Volkswagen`s vehicle plant in Zwickau, Saxony would "cautiously resume" production of its all-electric model ID.3, according to the company.

"We all have a historic task to accomplish," said Thomas Ulbrich, Volkswagen brand board member for e-mobility. "That task is to protect the health of our employees and at the same time get business back on track responsibly."

Volkswagen announced that with an initial production of 50 vehicles per day, operations were restarted "at reduced speed." Before COVID-19, production volumes at the plant had been around three times as high.

To ensure the health of its employees, Volkswagen introduced new rules at the workplace, such as an obligation to wear mouth and nose protection when keeping the minimum distance of 1.5 meters between employees was not possible.

On Thursday, Volkswagen engine plant in the city of Chemnitz also began gradually ramping up production. Next Monday, a plant in Dresden would follow with production at reduced capacity, according to the German carmaker.

Another major German carmaker Daimler had already restarted production in some selected plants earlier this week.

Volkswagen also announced on Thursday that that production had already been resumed at "almost all Volkswagen plants in China."

Germany has asked Taiwan to convince Taiwanese manufacturers to help ease the shortage of semiconductor chips in the automotive industry, which is hindering its emerging economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.

 


 

Automakers around the world are closing assembly lines due to an issue in the supply of semiconductors, which in some cases have been worsened by the behavior of the former Trump administration against key Chinese chip factories.

The shortages affected Volkswagen, Ford Motor, Subaru, Toyota Motor, Nissan Motor, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, and other car manufacturers.

German Economy Minister Peter Altmaier asked his Taiwanese counterpart Wang Mei-hua to discuss the issue in negotiations with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC). TW, the largest contract chipmaker in the world and one of Germany's leading suppliers.

"I would be pleased if you could take on this matter and underline the importance of additional semiconductor capacities for the German automotive industry to TSMC," Altmaier wrote.
