Our take on this /// Verdict

The Volkswagen Virtus Topline 1.0 TSI MT is a compelling package for those who enjoy the engagement of a manual transmission without compromising on comfort and features. The smooth-shifting five-speed manual gearbox paired with the 3-cylinder 1.0 TSI engine makes it a joy to drive, especially in city conditions where the well-selected gear ratios minimize the need for frequent gear changes. Despite its smaller engine, the Virtus does not feel underpowered, even when fully loaded, and it handles corners with poise and sure-footedness. The interior is well-appointed with a stylish dashboard, supportive front seats, and a spacious boot, making it a great option for both daily commutes and occasional long drives. However, the lack of soft-touch materials in the cabin and slightly grainy engine note at higher revs are minor drawbacks. Overall, its a fun-to-drive sedan that balances practicality and performance.

Price

The Volkswagen Virtus Topline 1.0 TSI MT is priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price for this variant typically ranges around Rs. 15.5 lakh to Rs. 16.5 lakh, depending on the location and any additional features or accessories. On-road prices, including taxes and other costs, can range from Rs. 18 lakh to Rs. 20 lakh. This pricing makes the manual transmission version about Rs. 1.3 lakh more affordable than the comparable automatic variant, which is a significant consideration for those who prefer the manual gearbox. Given the features and performance it offers, the Virtus Topline 1.0 TSI MT represents good value for money.
