The 3rd generation of the Polo was sourced from Argentina in sedan and high-cube panel van bodystyles as a supplement to the Gol, Parati (station-wagon) and Saveiro (coupé-utility), and the 4th generation was made in Brazil in hatchback and sedan bodystyles. The Gol had been always longitudinally-engined until 2008, when the switch to the PQ24 underpinnings was implemented. The current 6th generation of the Polo is noticeably larger than the last Gol, which BTW never became much bigger than the earlier models during its evolutionary timeframe.
