1975 : Generation 1
|
The original Polo (known internally as the Typ 86), a rebadged version of the Audi 50, was introduced in 1975 on mainland Europe and was launched in the UK in 1976.
The differences between the Audi and VW models were minor, with the Polo being cheaper and much more basic.
The two cars were initially sold alongside each other, but the Audi 50 never sold as well, and was withdrawn in 1978.

1981 : Generation 2
|
A revised Polo model (known as the Mark 2 or Mark II, internally designated Typ 86C) was introduced in October 1981, with the major change being the introduction of a new body style with a steep (almost vertical) rear window, as well a version with a diagonal rear window and a similar profile to the previous model.
These two body styles were called the Wagon and Coupé respectively, although in fact both were three-door hatchbacks.
The latter was added to the range in 1983.

The Mark 4 was the first Polo to be made available as a five-door as well as three-door hatchback; these were built in 1995-1999.
