Value For Money

  • The Volkswagen Virtus stands out as a "driver's car" in the compact sedan segment, celebrated for its engaging driving dynamics.
  • It offers two potent turbo-petrol engines – a 1.0-litre TSI and a more powerful 1.5-litre TSI with cylinder deactivation – delivering brisk acceleration and a well-balanced ride.
  • The Virtus boasts a timeless design, segment-leading 521-litre boot space, and a high 179mm ground clearance suited for diverse Indian roads.
  • Crucially, it has secured a 5-star Global NCAP safety rating with 6 airbags as standard, emphasizing its robust build.
  • It misses out on some advanced ADAS features found in rivals.
