Cited on Volkswagen’s website, along with the massive direct cash discount, there are also some additional markdowns that could expand the total discount up to 1.7 lakh.

Despite having a strong built and outstanding handling quality, the Vento still falls to catch the attention of the car buyers as it lacks some essential characteristics to fit the Indians’ common taste. Fitting into the mid-size sedan segment, Volkswagen is stacking against Honda City, Hyundai Verna and Maruti Suzuki Ciaz.
On the occasion of such a huge discount, we will recap the highlights of this sedan for your consideration.
