The Volkswagen Polo G40 is the supercharged sporting version of the second-generation Volkswagen Polo, offered on both the Mk2 and the facelifted Mk2F. Its 1.3 litre engine took its name from the G-Lader supercharger, whose displacer was 40 mm wide, and produced 85 kW, enough for 0 to 100 km/h in 8.1 seconds and a top speed of 195 km/h. It had uprated ventilated front discs and distinctive trim, and a one-make Polo G40 Cup race series ran from 1987. A high price and a nine-year-old design limited sales, and the car was replaced by the Polo GTI in Western Europe in 1995.
