What is the best fuel for a Volkswagen Polo?

I recently purchased a Volkswagen Polo and I was wondering what type of fuel is best for this car. I've heard conflicting opinions and I'm not sure what to believe. Can someone please give me some advice on the optimal fuel choice for my new car?

The best fuel for your Volkswagen Polo depends on the model and year of your car. I suggest consulting your owner's manual to determine the recommended fuel type. Using a lower octane fuel than recommended can harm your engine and reduce performance.

As a Volkswagen mechanic, I have seen many issues caused by using the wrong fuel. Most Polo models use regular unleaded fuel, so unless you have a high-performance engine, stick with that option. Using premium fuel will not provide any added benefits.

Although it may be tempting to use a lower grade fuel to save money, this can actually end up costing you more in the long run. Using the recommended fuel type will ensure your car runs efficiently and avoids any potential engine damage. Trust the manufacturer's recommendations.
