It is also expected to get black inserts on its headlamps to make the car more elegant. The upgraded version of the Polo is expected to have more detailed changes at interiors than the exteriors. The revamped interiors will include a new music system head-unit with USB and Bluetooth connectivity, while high-end variants could also get steering-mounted audio controls. These features are available in most of the other B+ segment cars.
