The Volkswagen Polo Life hasn't changed much since the last version but it's popular for a reason. Still, it's a safe play compared to some of the other hatchback designs coming out now. If you're looking at this for a family car you need or want something that's small on the outside. But does that mean it's going to be too cramped on the inside?

Volkswagen may have embraced the shift to SUVs, but it hasn't forgotten its passenger car roots, with an upgraded version of the city-sized Polo arriving with even more safety, additional tech, extra standard features, and a higher starting price.

Volkswagen Australia has announced it will increase prices for much of its model range, effective July 1 - the second time the brand will increase its pricing this year.
