    DRIVING:

    Exterior The clean, simple and timeless design of the exteriors.With addition of black/smoked headlamps now vento looks more aggestive and looks upmarket and luxurious like its elder brother jetta and passat .vento though desgine on polo patfrom but the hole package isnt look like a polo with a boot its a balanced car unlike swift drize ! No nosense cruves and lines just clean simple -Beautiful 

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) From the inside car trully seem to be statement of luxury every thing inside is top noch and well crafted .Vento comes with Leather seats ,a quality leather and well fitted .The soft touches of chrome on the interiors. Gives a very premium feel to the car.The new ICE. I’m not a hardcore music guy, so this seems sufficient for me. Of course, i would have hated the earlier system which didn’t even have a USB port!The steering - its super light and a pleasure to drive. Does have audio controls too.beside all Nav system also fitted on windsheld with rear cam option for hassel free parkin-in -out .rear seat is also spacious but more for the two rear passenges ,rear middle hump rear a pain for highway The rear seat comfort (more so with the AC vents) . overall its refects a ture and very erocomic cabin desgin and feel like sitting in audi(probably )

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The 1.6 litre diesel monster. Simply amazing.With 104 Ps power city or highways you never complain of underpower, very effecient and promises to delivery decent figure in fuel economy ( I am getting 22kmpl city uptill now 600km done) Turbo just kick -in between 1.5-2.0 so its hassel free to vroom around city traffic.The noise from the engine. Could have been better insulated.overall vento surely a head turner in city road !!

    Ride Quality & Handling The handling is very good not as good as fiat linea but its 2nd next to linea for handling quality .At any speed you never lose confidence ,and at tight cornering vento never let you down. suspension is also excellent in vento not so much soft not so much stiffer side just perfect for indian road conditions.

    Final Words volkswagen offers a poor mans audi .sheer pleasure you get from vento every thing is just perfect and the build quality is top notch and best for indian road conditions.True value for money best in its class ! 

    Areas of improvement The noise from the engine. Could have been better insulated. Beige. Beige. Beige. Its all over the place. Although it helps in making the interiors airy and feel big, its a tough thing to maintain. The headlights are inadequate. Need to upgrade on this.may be dual projects headlamps seems excellent .

    Overall Build Quality , packages offered in highline variant ,Audi feel in Vw entrylevel sedanRear Hump, Engine Noise , Healights , After sales
