2010 Polo: ‘With All Senses’
TV commercial

The Polo has prided itself on being a byword for quality in the supermini/small car sector. Over the past 35 years it has been critically acknowledged to be the benchmark for its competitors to aim for in terms of build quality and refinement, strengths that were present in the Series 1 model which debuted back in 1975. This latest Volkswagen TV commercial plays on these identifiable Polo traits to good – if slightly unbelievable – effect and also celebrates the car’s European Car of the Year 2010 win.

2010 Polo: ‘Made in India –
Safety Toughness’ TV commercial

Here’s the last of the four TV commercials in Volkswagen India’s ‘Made in India’ campaign for the Polo (watch them all on PoloDriverTV). Similarly to the other ads in the series, this 30-second clip uses comic humour to highlight a technical aspect of the car – in this case, the safety features – and to convey the message that the Indian-built Polo is tailor-made for Indian drivers, but has the might of German engineering behind it. The ‘Made in India’ campaign also features a wide range of innovative print, outdoor and digital media. The new Polo costs from RS 4.5 lakh, and will face heated competition from the Maruti Swift, Ford Figo, Honda Jazz, Fiat Punto and Hyundai i20.

2010 Polo: ‘Made in India –
Road Handling’ TV commercial

Here’s the third of the four TV commercials in Volkswagen India’s ‘Made in India’ campaign for the Polo (watch them all on PoloDriverTV). Similarly to the first and second ads in the series, this 30-second clip uses comic humour to highlight a technical aspect of the car – in this case, the handling – and to convey the message that the Indian-built Polo is tailor-made for Indian drivers, but has the might of German engineering behind it.

2010 Polo: ‘Made in India –
Ground Clearance’ TV commercial

If you’re marketing a car made in Germany, why not shoot the a series of TV commercials for the Indian market in South Africa? That’s precisely what DDB Mudra have done for its new campaign for the Polo in India. Aimed at the local market (the car is made in Volkswagen’s new Pune factory), the message is that the car’s extensively tested efficiency and suitability for Indian roads means that no further testing from owners is necessary. In other words, it’s tailor-made for Indian drivers, but has the might of German engineering behind it.

We’ll be featuring each of the four TV commercials in the series separately, so here’s the first. Focusing on the Polo’s increased ground clearance, the traditional Volkswagen element of subtle humour is clear to see, and being produced for the local market but under the brand umbrella, it fits neatly into VW’s global advertising strategy and feel. The ‘Made in India’ campaign also features a wide range of innovative print, outdoor and digital media. The new Polo costs from RS 4.5 lakh, and will face heated competition from the Maruti Swift, Ford Figo, Honda Jazz, Fiat Punto and Hyundai i20.
