The “death of small cars” is in full swing. The upcoming Euro 7 emissions standard is hanging like a dark shadow over the automotive industry and is making small models such as the VW Polo increasingly unprofitable for manufacturers. Due to the further tightened and far stricter emissions standard, more and more complex technology has to be installed under the hood of vehicles. This also increases production costs, which are difficult to pass on to customers in the small car segment. It is therefore only a matter of time before car manufacturers scale back their small car segment for economic reasons and cancel certain models. Ford will stop producing the Fiesta completely this year. Whether the VW Polo will also face the same fate in the future is currently up in the air, but there are increasing voices saying that the small Polo car will no longer be able to be kept in the range in the long term. If this happens, the GTI will certainly be the first model to suffer, as its 2.0 TSI engine has more power and therefore emits more exhaust gases, which in turn would have to be treated.
