The price isn't compared on a 1:1 basis.
The Polo becomes noticeably more expensive very quickly.

Practical car with a fresh look and plenty of choices when it comes to equipment. For us it came down to a Ford and a Hyundai. In my experience the Ford Puma e felt a bit bumpier and the Inster is calmer, partly thanks to the long wheelbase. That the Ford doesn’t have a heat pump is a miss. The Inster’s coffee-break alert gets on your nerves almost immediately and apparently can’t be switched off. Hyundai blames EU rules, but there must be a solution? This misses the mark!
