Petrol Manual Engine Review
- The Polo has a more powerful turbo petrol engine than the Jazz 1.2L but the Polo’s normal petrol engine has less power than the Jazz petrol.
- The Polos turbo petrol engine produces more torque than the Jazz.
- The Jazz has a better torque-to-weight ratio than the Polo non-turbo. But it’s not even comparable with the Polo turbo. So, it’ll offer better drivability than the Jazz but the Jazz’ in-gear performance will be better than the Polo’s pathetic normal petrol engines.
- The Polo 1.0 L turbo petrol is more fuel-efficient than the Jazz.
- Even Polo’s non-turbo engine is more fuel-efficient than the Jazz.
