While some would say that the Polo would be in direct competition with the Rabbit and GTI, but I don't think so. At least not right away. The Polo would be priced lower than the Rabbit, and is smaller. “…the contemporary view of the Beetle has become one of of “cuteness”, making it more of a novelty.
