Looking similar to the standard Polo GTi, the Cup has larger front and rear spoilers, 17in alloy wheels and red brake callipers for its uprated brakes.
The 1.8-litre engine has been tuned to deliver 178bhp and 173lb ft of torque.
The increase in power helps the Polo Cup manage 0-62mph in 7.5 seconds and reach a top speed of 141mph.
No word on when it will come to the UK, but it will sell in Germany for the equivalent of £15,700.
