2016 VW Vento Highline Plus
Motorbeam has acquired spyshots of the
upcoming 2016 VW Vento Highline Plus, the new range-topping grade of the Vento
that will come packed with a long list of features. It is expected to launch
this festive season.
The Highline Plus variant introduces
LED-powered headlamps with DRLs, which is a first in the segment. Otherwise the
exterior of the Vento Highline Plus is identical to the 2016 VW Vento Highline
currently on sale. The Vento underwent a major facelift in 2015, which introduced
a new bumper design, 3-slat grille, LED taillamps and chrome embellishments.
Inside, all of the equipment from Vento
Highline will be seen on the Highline Plus, including rain sensing wipers, auto
dimming IRVM, phone book/SMS viewer and Mirrorlink connectivity as part of a
new touch-screen infotainment system.
The Vento Highline Plus will be
available with a 1.6-liter MPI petrol engine, a 1.2-liter TSI petrol and an
updated version of the 1.5-liter TDI diesel engine. A 7-speed DSG is fitted to
the TSI variant as standard, and on the TDI as an option. A 5-speed manual is
standard in the 1.6 MPI and 1.5 TDI variants.
