Our take on this /// Verdict

The Volkswagen Vento Konekt Diesel is a compelling option for those seeking a blend of modern connectivity, comfort, and performance. This limited edition model stands out with its advanced infotainment system, featuring a 7-inch Blaupunkt touchscreen and an 8-inch Android-powered tablet for rear passengers. The integration of GPS navigation, Bluetooth telephony, and 3G internet connectivity makes it a great choice for tech-savvy buyers. The diesel engine offers a good balance of power and fuel efficiency, making it suitable for both city and highway driving. However, its important to note that this model has been discontinued, so availability might be limited to the used car market.

Price

The Volkswagen Vento Konekt Diesel, when it was available, was priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price for the Comfortline variant was around Rs 9.19 lakh, while the Highline variant was priced at approximately Rs 10.02 lakh. On-road prices would have varied depending on the state and local taxes, but you could expect to add around Rs 1-2 lakh to the ex-showroom price. Given its features and the value it offers, the Vento Konekt Diesel was a good investment for those looking for a feature-rich sedan. However, since its discontinued, prices in the used car market will depend on the vehicles condition, mileage, and other factors.

Latest Updates

Tuesday, 19 August 2014 12:03 PM The Volkswagen Vento Konekt Diesel was launched in India, offering advanced technology features without any additional cost to the customer. The diesel variants are priced at Rs. 9.26 lakh and Rs. 10 lakh for the Comfortline and Highline variants, respectively. This move was aimed at catering to the demand for seamless connectivity and digital entertainment in cars. I think this strategy is a great way to enhance the appeal of an existing model

Monday, 18 August 2014 03:01 PM The Vento Konekt Diesel comes equipped with a 7-inch double-din touchscreen infotainment system featuring GPS navigation with the latest Igo-Navtech maps, Bluetooth, USB, iPod, and iPhone connectivity. Additionally, rear seat passengers get an Android-powered Blaupunkt tablet with dual SIM, 3G, and Wi-Fi connectivity. This tablet offers various apps, live TV channels, internet radio, and social media access. I believe this is a significant upgrade in terms of in-car entertainment

Monday, 18 August 2014 10:50 AM Mechanically, the Volkswagen Vento Konekt Diesel remains unchanged from the standard Vento, powered by a 1.6-liter diesel engine mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. There is no automatic transmission option available in the Konekt edition. This ensures that the performance and efficiency of the diesel engine are retained while adding new tech features. I think this balance between tech and performance is well-executed

Monday, 18 August 2014 02:26 PM The Vento Konekt Diesel also features leatherette seat covers and Konekt badging on the boot lid and scuff plates, setting it apart from the regular Vento models. These aesthetic changes, along with the advanced tech features, make the limited edition more appealing to potential buyers. I believe these small touches can make a big difference in customer perception
