While the enthusiasts were waiting for a facelift of Vento, Volkswagen seems to have prepared some other plans to surprise its reverers in the not-so-distant future. The brand will be introducing a successor of Vento in the market in early 2022, named Volkswagen Virtus. In the overseas market, the car has been launched more than a year ago. In India, glimpses of Volkswagen’s upcoming premium sedan were caught when it was being tested on the fringes of Mumbai.

What is Volkswagen Virtus?

Virtus is a new mid-sized sedan of Volkswagen, with approx. 2650 mm long wheelbase. The exterior curves of Virtus are not much different from those of Vento, but the car is dimensionally bigger than it. Along with approx. 9cm longer length and approx. 5.2 cm wider width, Virtus has a significantly larger cabin and boot space (approx. 521 L) than Vento.

Just like Volkswagen Taigun, Virtus will have the MQB AO IN platform, and the same platform will be used by Skoda in its upcoming cars. ‘IN’ refers to India and connotes that the production of the car will be India-based.
