Maybe in 10 yrs time, when we are all sold electric cars are the future & green. But I think diesel are here to stay.

Well, the Polo Bluemotion is no longer a diesel. Diesel engines are becoming just too expensive for the profit margin on small cars.
I'm sure VW have had a close look at Suzuki's mild hybrids.

Well you might be confused if you don't keep up!
Since the new Polo came out. Have at look at VW website. Polo Bluemotion is now a 1.0 TSI 90PS petrol.

Nope. Only true "Bluemotion" is on p 26/27. In Tech specs page 48/49 only true "Bluemotion" is petrol 1.0 TSI 95PS.
Diesels have "Bluemotion Technologies" on p 40/41, as do all the petrols.

As I said, VW have dropped true "Bluemotion" diesels on the Polo, expect the same to be with Golf MkVIII next autumn.
