Pros Cons of Volkswagen Virtus

Pros

  • Fun To Drive
  • Modern Interior
  • Looks Stylish

Cons

  • Engine Needs Refinement
  • No Diesel Engine
  • 1.0L Motor Needs More Punch

Verdict

The compact sedan segment in India is undergoing an influx of fresher models with the Skoda Slavia and the hybrid version of the Honda City taking the fight straight to Maruti Suzuki Ciaz and the Hyundai Verna Volkswagen now has brought in the replacement to the VW Vento and yes it looks gorgeous. With a car like the Virtus, that is high on looks, features and two powerful petrol engines, Volkswagen might just hit it out of the park with the pricing.

Pros Cons of BMW 3 Series

Pros

  • Performance
  • Exquisite Driving Dynamics
  • Comfortable Over Long Journeys

Cons

  • Low Ground Clearance
  • Lacks Boot Space
  • Lacks Second Row Leg Space

Verdict

The prices are competitive enough and BMW will like to believe that the lack of a credible rival at this stage will help it capture the compact premium sedan market. The premium car buyer in India will like that it retains its traditional strengths and yet gives a bit more by way of luxury and comfort, giving it a more all-rounder appeal than before. Expect to see a few of these on the roads - could have been more - had the automobile market not been badly hammered down as it were.
