      The car is very good and quite interesting to drive. I’ve really enjoyed owning it. However, due to my health and body structure, the Virtus feels a bit low in height and isn't as comfortable for me personally. That’s the only reason I’ve decided to sell it. Otherwise, it’s a great car in every other way.

      The Volkswagen Virtus is a great car that I truly love driving. It offers full safety, top-notch paint quality, and comes with low maintenance at a good price point. The German technology stands out, and the TSI engine delivers smooth and powerful performance. While the petrol engine is excellent, I do miss the older Indian VW diesel engines. Overall, it's a stylish, reliable, and high-quality sedan.
