1 Answers
The dimensions of the Polo hatchback are a length of 4053mm, a width of 1740mm, and a height of 1449mm, as per official data. The length of the Polo hatchback refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the foremost and rearmost protruding parts of the vehicle. The width refers to the distance between two parallel planes touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on either side of the vehicle, parallel to the longitudinal symmetry plane. The height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and the supporting plane. The Polo hatchback is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 113PS, a maximum power of 83kW, and a maximum torque of 145Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. There are national regulations regarding vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard "GB1589-89," the total width of a vehicle does not include the rearview mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that, under national standards, the significance of vehicle width data is to ensure adequate space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the requirements of public road usage.
