This is not your average Volkswagen Polo – it’s a purpose-built hillclimb / rally prototype. It combines a lightweight Dytko chassis, a high-output 2.3L Stroker engine, and race components to compete in hillclimb/sprint events under MSA compliance.
Built from the ground up as a competition weapon, this Polo carries virtually no resemblance to a road-going hatchback. The car is constructed around a Dytko “proto” shell, with extensive tubular reinforcements, integrated WRC front & rear body panels, sill stands, a vented bonnet, and a genuine WRC carbon-fibre rear wing.
At its heart lies a heavily reworked 2.3-litre Evo “stroker” unit originally derived from Mitsubishi hardware. The build includes a ported head, Supertech valves, solid lifters, a Hewerk billet crank, CP-Carrillo pistons, Oliver rods, ARP fasteners (head, main, flywheel), balance shafts from Evo 9, and a baffled “big wing” sump for oil control under high lateral loads.
Boost is provided via a Garrett GTX turbo, aided by a bespoke exhaust manifold and external wastegate. The induction system uses a custom intake manifold and a Nissan throttle body. Fueling is managed via 1000 cc injectors and a rear-mounted fuel system, and the ECU is a GEMS unit (tuned by Field Motorsport), producing in the region of 700PS on Carless DEV 2 Race Fuel.
The gearbox is a Samonsas 5-speed sequential transaxle with a 4.142 final drive. Gearing is laid out as 3.000 / 2.000 / 1.470 / 1.110 / 0.870. It’s paired with a Geartronics pneumatic paddle-shift system and gear display unit.
Drivetrain components are all up to the task: the car uses Mitsubishi Evo 9 hubs and driveshafts, and both front and rear differentials employ Ralliart-plated units. A Motec differential controller is fitted to manage torque distribution and optimize traction.
