What you need to know: Volkswagen Polo BlueMotion

Tags: eco-cars, diesel
We like:

SmartPlanet judgement:
The Volkswagen Polo BlueMotion is sporty yet sturdy and great value for money, though a lack of space means you'll probably have to leave the dog and kids at home. Everything else is great, though -- from VW's ethics as a company to the surprisingly affordable price.
