2012 Volkswagen Polo ‘Fire Truck’ South African TV commercial
The Polo has been a small car market staple for 37 years, and through that time it’s combined the space-efficient virtues of smaller cars with the refinement of much larger ones. And the latest GTI has certainly added some zip to the fifth-generation range. But the Polo has never been seen as an emergency vehicle (and therefore using some of that added zip) – until now, that is. Volkswagen South Africa’s latest 40-second TV commercial sees the Polo take on the role of fire truck, when a young fireman is left to oversee the arrival of a new tender, with unsurprisingly humourous results.
