Volkswagen Vento (2016)

Friday, 01 January 2021 07:45 PM Volkswagen India announced a price revision for the Vento, along with the Polo, effective January 2021, with an increase of up to 2.5% due to rising input costs. This move is part of the companys effort to manage increasing production expenses. I think this price hike might affect sales, but the Ventos quality and performance should still attract buyers.

Thursday, 15 October 2020 05:53 AM In 2020, Volkswagen India launched a special red and white edition of the Vento, along with the Polo, as part of their festive offer Volksfest 2020. This edition did not incur any additional cost and was aimed at boosting sales during the festive season. I believe these special editions can be a great way to keep the model fresh and appealing.

Thursday, 01 September 2016 10:15 PM The 2016 Volkswagen Vento received an update with subtle yet effective exterior changes, including a new grille design, fog lights with static cornering lights, and 3D effect taillights. The interior also saw improvements with new fabric designs and the option for dual-tone dashboards. I think these updates made the Vento look more premium and aligned with other Volkswagen models.

Monday, 15 August 2016 07:52 PM Volkswagen introduced a diesel variant of the Vento in 2016, which came with a 1.5-liter engine and a 7-speed DSG transmission. This addition was significant as it offered better fuel efficiency and performance, making the Vento a more desirable option in the subcompact sedan segment. I believe this move was a smart strategy to cater to the Indian markets preference for diesel vehicles.
