Another gimmicky colab, or something actually decent? We are yet to find out…
But VW have teamed up with Dr Dre’s Beats Electronics for a range of Polo special editions.
Starting from £13,910 the Polo beats offers a 300 watt, eight channel amplifier that has a digital signal processor.
You get two tweeters in the A Pillars, two woofers in the front doors and two broadband speakers in the back with a subwoofer built into the space wheel well.
On the outside you get 16″ alloy wheels, tinted rear lights and windows, a high gloss black front grille and red white or black door mirrors.
Beats branding adorns the B pillar and along the side skirts.
Inside there’s silver dash trim, red stitching on the door matts along with Beats sill protectors. The seats have Alcantara bolsters and special ‘Beats’ cloth upholstery.
You can get the Beats edition in three or five door guises in a 1.0 litre, 1.2 litre petrol engine or a 1.4 diesel.
