Volkswagen has rolled out the facelifted Vento at a starting price of Rs 7.85 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).

The new Vento features alloy wheels, more powerful fog lamps, integrated cornering lights, and all new front grille. Plenty of chrome has been used on the lining of the boot lid, exhaust tip and door handles.

On the power unit front, one gets to choose between a 1.5-litre four-cylinder TDI turbo diesel engine and a 1.2-litre TSI petrol unit. The The former churns out 105 PS of power and clocks a fuel economy figure of 21.50 kmpl, as per ARAI ratings. The petrol engine, on the other hand, delivers the same amount of power but a reduced fuel efficiency of 16.09 kmpl.

Interiors feature subtle changes and additions, such as an all new cooled glove box and new colour scheme of ‘Walnut desert beige’ and ‘Cloud-Titanschwarz’.

Safety is a paramount importance for Volkswagen and the Vento comes fitted with ABS, ESP and Hill-Hold function in selected variants. Dual front air-bags, on the other hand, come standard in all models, as you would expect from a VW car.

Speaking at the launch of the new Vento, Mr Michael Mayer, Direction, Volkswagen Passenger Cars India, said: :”We at Volkswagen Passenger Cars are committed towards providing the Indian customers with stylish and technologically advanced products that strive to provide the highest levels of build quality and driving experience.”

“The Vento has always been among our best received products in the market, and with the changes made to the New Vento, we are confident that the product will continue to appeal to our customers and will play a key role in further expanding the Volkswagen family in India.”
