Exterior. The art of improving something nearly perfect comes naturally to Volkswagen engineers. We realised that just good headlights weren’t good enough. So we made them better. We also put indicator lamps in them. The state-of-the-art tail lights were designed keeping in mind everyone’s safety on the road, not just yours.

Engines and Transmissions. The Vento offers two 1.6L variants available in a choice of diesel and petrol. The Double Overhead Cam (DOHC) 16 valve, 1.6L petrol engine delivers 105 PS (77kW) of peak power and a peak torque of 153Nm at an easy 3800rpm. And ensuring zero compromise, it offers a fuel efficiency of 15.8 km/l for the manual transmission and 14.4 km/l for the automatic transmission under Indian test conditions. Equally superior is the Turbocharged Common Rail 1.6L diesel engine in the Vento that is designed to deliver dynamic performance and go frugal on fuel as well. This engine produces 105 PS (77kW) of unbridled power and an amazing torque

The automatic transmission adapts to the driving style of the driver- from leisurely cruising to sporty performance. If need be, you could even take matters into your own hands with the Tiptronic gearshift function.

The Vento features our latest 1.6L Common Rail diesel technology which is incredibly fuel-efficient yet surprisingly quiet. You’d probably need to drive it to believe it.
