Volkswagen Ameo User Reviews

Look is awesome. May compromise in back view but its not as much boring... Its classic as abroad. 10/10 in comfort . dual airbag so no compromise in safety. Solid body with no welding joint with roof as found in swift and amaze. Economy is nominal. Front look is killing. Storage is space is also huge.

Disclaimer: This is my personal experience and not promoting any brand, will not be responsible for any form of using this information. I have purchased a VW Ameo Highline top end last yeat December at Hosur and drove almost 18K. Performance and response was like. Getting an average milege of 18 - 20 (which is in City limit). Driving at 100kms is not felt like so and very quite & easy to drive. Over taking is never been a problem. Engine response excellent when you would like to over take. Checked some of the vehicle in this segment but in my first look finalized with Ameo. Never felt tired of driving irrespective ofthe kms :).

At 15K, first service charge alone cost me 12.5, spares are costly but it's ok (Fog lamp is 1K). I love my VW Ameo.

Final Words Felt like value for money.

Areas of improvement Maintanence cost (Service charge alone 12.K + any spares). There should be many service centers (In blore it takes min of a week to get an appointment).

Suspension should be improved. There is a huge gap beneath the engine which makes very much comfortable for the rodents to enter easily into the engine area. Closing option for Rear AC vents if not required (currently only you can change the direction).

The high priority one is the rail which comes under the chase (not sure about the technical name) should be bigger enough or kept near to the corner to avoid damage with the stones. (In dark i took a right turn not knowing a bigger stone and it chewed the right corner exactly under the driver seat, that material looks like a rubber).

I was hesitant to enter VW brand after using maruti and ford for years primarily bcoz of maintenance and mileage issues. But I am happy to say the mileage of car is very good. Look and feel of car is that of higher segment car.the best in class. Drivng and gear box is crisp responsive. Space wise back seats are cramped compared to maruti. But currently this car come a lac cheaper to maruti which can be considered to save yr overall economy also. overall a good car for indian market.

I got this car Petrol comfortline in offer price for 6.7L.

Exterior My Toffee brown color, looks so classy, and build is superb. This has dual head lamps which no other brand offers in this price range. You will get 6years of perforation warranty (no rusting), Volkswagen car paint lasts very long (researched online). One should buy white for better heat resistance.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) No negatives,everything is perfect, except i didn't get touch screen and rear view camera..which can be installed by our own. All windows have one touch up and down feature. Boot space is 330 Lit which is decent, no regrets.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performace is upto the mark, even though the figures might seem less compared to other brands. I assure you it is good enough as a family car(don't buy if u want to race). The kerb weight of this car is 1060Kg, which a 150kg heavy compared to rivals, this makes difference during accidents but will impact mileage. It can run on 4th gear at 30kmph, gear box is so refined. Milage in city is upto 12-14 and on highways at 17-18.

Ride Quality & Handling Best in class, volkswagen is made for this.. u won't even feel a thing at 120. Steering is sporty and has tilt and telescopic adjustment, go for highline for steering controls. It has 15inch tyres which will glide on highways.

Final Words If u want a punchy version go for diesel, but petrol is good enough for family rides. I can still hear the solid thump sound when we close a door (awesome build).

Areas of improvement Mileage can be improved, u can get max upto 14 in city. and 17-18 on highways.

Body build quality and materials used, Engine performanceRear view look might not impress everyone, Milage is less as the kerb weight is high.

I bought the Volkswagen Ameo last year in January 2017. The car is fantastic. It is a petrol Trendline variant. Build quality is too good. No complaints about it. Average is on lower side for city driving but on highway it is superb. Being Volkswagen service cost is high but it is acceptable. You do servicing once in a year that is it.

The best car in its segment. I have a great experience with this car. I am driving the petrol verion of this car. It give me 14+ avg in city and on highway i usually get 18-22 kmpl.

Exterior Good loking, stylish look fron look exactly like polo, from side look like ventos little brother.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good interior, space is sufficient if you are below 5.7'' if you are taller than 6 the car is not for you.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Buttersmooth engine and gearbox, fuel economy is about 22-23 Kmpl of diseal on single lane highway. 28 liters of deisel it run about 650 km with AC. Good car for commuter.

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent quality ride no rollover observed. highly stable.

Final Words Value for money.

Good fuel economy 22-23 kmpl of diesel with AC, RPM maintain below 1500 at any gearNot yet noticed

Lovely driving experience. Not so expensive the service, as I was informed. Pro is that it has the Vento's engine. So powerful. The perfect buddy for a highway. Good speakers and has apple carplay and Android auto at the top end. Worth the ownership. Cons are the public perception of the service, and the rear seat space.
