Verdict

The Volkswagen Virtus is one of the most driver-focused sedans in the segment. It does not follow every trend or overload buyers with gimmicks. Instead, it provides structural safety, turbocharged performance, and true highway confidence.

As Bilal Firfiray summed up during the drive,

“The Virtus is like a proper sedan, it stays stable, is confidence-inspiring and built for the long run.”

If your priority is the number of features and ADS technologies, the Verna may tempt you. If rear seat comfort is the number one priority, the City is still strong. But if you appreciate stability at triple-digit speeds, solid crash protection, and turbo performance, then the Virtus is still making a strong case in the Indian car market.

Pros Cons of Volvo S60

Pros

  • Handsome Styling
  • Sound System Is The Best In Segment
  • Extremely Comfortable Ride

Cons

  • Touchscreen Is Cumbersome To Use
  • Central Tunnel Limits Space In Second Row
  • Not A Spirited Engine

Verdict

What really impressed us is how the Polestar Engineered S60 handles. We took the car on some twisties and found out that it loves to carve up corners. It responds very well to the steering inputs and has the right amount of weight as well. Plus, the S60 Polestar also gets better Ohlins suspension and the electric motor simply nullifies any turbo lag that a normal turbo-charged engine might have had. Plus, the grip offered too was pleasantly surprising.
