Volkswagen has
updated its locally manufactured cars in India with new equipment to have
something new in the showrooms this festive season. The VW Polo, VW Ameo and VW
Vento are available with new features and in a Connect edition.
The VW Polo, VW
Ameo and VW Vento’s colour options now include a new Lapiz Blue colour, which
sister brand Skoda introduced with the Rapid Onyx last month. Other new
features include Moon stone coloured Radio surround trim, glove box light, rear
USB charging port and 16-inch Portago Gray alloy wheels. Also, the hatchback
has gained leatherette seat fabrics, while its GT variant sports chequered seat
fabrics now.
The VW Vento now
features a body-coloured rear spoiler. The Honda City rival is available with
dual front side airbags now, which take the passive safety a notch higher.
Also, there's an update for its Allstar variant - new 15-inch diamond-cut linas
alloy wheels.
The VW Polo, VW
Ameo and VW Vento’s Connect edition support the Volkswagen Connect app, an
intelligent, connected vehicle assistant that offers a seamless connected car
experience to the driver. The driver has to connect their car to their
smartphone through a plug and play data dongle to the on-board diagnostics port
of their car.
Once installed and
connected via Bluetooth, the driver can use many different connected features,
such as trip tracking, fuel cost monitoring, driving behaviour, location
sharing, SOS call and service appointment. Volkswagen will offer the Connect
edition at no extra cost.
The new VW Polo, VW
Ameo and VW Vento’s prices range from INR 5.55 – 9.39 lakh, INR 5.65-9.99 lakh
and 8.38-14.02 lakh respectively.
