• Pros & Cons

  Pros		Goes like a bullet. 0 to 100 km/h in 5.9 seconds. It hits 267 km/h in just 5th gear. Equipped with electronic front differential lock. Spacious 5 seater with 380L of boot space that expands upto 1237L. Level 2 ADAS with 20 autonomous features. Driver focused cabin. Twin chrome exhausts create a beautiful symphony of sound that’s pleasing to the ears.
  Cons		Available in single variant. Misses on manual gearbox. Being a CBU and that too with limited units. The front seats are great for spirited driving but don’t offer adjustability. VW offers heated but not cooled seats - something more essential for a country like India.
