    My favourite car on sale currently in India would be VW Virtus 1.5 with the DSG. It's such a well rounded car and feels planted all through that 150bhp of power. A great machine by the VW Group.

    I found Volkswagen Virtus like a high class sedan. Offering luxurious comfort and a luxury lifestyle. The mileage is average if we look at the model and overall car features are elegant and up to trend. The leg space and boot space is very much available. One cannot find flaws in it. The one thing that is concerning is that the service is expensive and if the parts of car (Accessories) gets damaged so the cost of spare part is way too high.

    It feels big, comfortable, prestigious and full of tech. I think it just might be my favourite of the lot of midsize sedans currently on sale.

    Virtus is a quality car comfort, convenience, performance all is good. Peace of mind comes more with a 4 year warranty.

    I love Volkswagen Virtus. I drive a polo but have test drove the virtus a couple of times. It's a beast in terms of performance. I still feel the polo is better in terms of handling but the performance of Virtus is unmatched.

    In the budget segment i really like the Volkswagen Virtus for the features it gives along with great driving capability and really sporty exterior design. I feel it would be a great daily drive or a really good secondary car along with a luxury sedan. (PS I really tend incline towards sedan I love them) In luxury segment i really like the new Mercedes E class though on the pricier side i feel it is best in terms of a really good luxury family car. Overall technology, safety features and the exceptional comfort offered along with really good driving feel is something i really like. The exterior design especially the new lights is something that i am in complete awe of and I will be working even hard to get my hands on the lastest model.

    Volkswagen Virtus is as a supercar. If you are thinking to purchase it, go for the white color as it gives the car a premium appearance. This car boasts a good safety system also carries a German legacy and also a great resale value in the car market!
