The Volkswagen Polo is a supermini car produced by the German automaker Volkswagen since 1975, spanning over five generations of models. The 1990-1994 version, often referred to as the "Mk3 Polo," marked a significant shift in the car's design and engineering. This generation featured a more angular, boxy aesthetic compared to its predecessor, with sharper lines and larger, more prominent bumpers. Mechanically, the Mk3 Polo introduced a new range of engines, including 1.0-liter and 1.3-liter petrol units, and a 1.4-liter diesel engine, offering improved fuel efficiency and performance. These engines were paired with either a four-speed or five-speed manual transmission, allowing for a smooth and responsive driving experience.

The 1990-1994 Polo was available in various body styles, including a three-door hatchback, a five-door hatchback, and a three-door sedan. It offered a comfortable and practical interior, with ample space for passengers and luggage. Safety features included a driver's airbag, a strengthened passenger compartment, and a robust braking system. This generation of Polo established itself as a reliable and affordable small car, catering to a wide range of buyers, from young professionals to families looking for a practical and economical vehicle. The Mk3 Polo's success paved the way for the future generations of the model, solidifying its position as a popular and enduring choice in the supermini segment.
