Last year the VW Golf was named the World Car of the Year and this year the trophy is staying in the family. Volkswagen received the honor for the second consecutive year as it was announced at the New York Auto Show that the Polo had topped all others.

The VW Polo, which is currently only sold in Europe, was picked above the 30 other entries, including the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and the Toyota Prius, the other 2 finalists for the award.

59 automotive jounalists from 25 different countries around the world all took part in the voting. They test drove each of the 30 cars between July 2009 and January 2010 before picking the Polo as the winner.

Volkswagen has said that the Polo will likely be available in the U.S. sometime this year.
