Volkswagen Virtus

Virtus highlights

Volkswagen has taken wraps off the Virtus in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The Virtus is the sedan counterpart of the all-new, sixth-generation Polo and is technically, the second-generation VW Vento. Like the new Polo, the Virtus is also based on the MQB A0 platform, which is the smaller version of the popular MQB platform. The styling of the Virtus is identical to the Polo’s, while the boot has been smartly integrated, similar to the Vento. The VW Virtus shares its equipment with the Polo with goodies such as the 10.3-inch digital instrument cluster, up to 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, LED headlamps, among others. So far, there is no clarity on whether the new sedan will be introduced in India as the replacement of the Vento.
