Volkswagen Virtus review

Power, Handling performance to the highway. With full control in hands. Mileage is also good in both conditions. Look like Audi A3. Go for it with a second thought. Because the car is a sedan and a sedan is a car.

The beast review.

Buying experience was perfect. Riding was best and was very comfortable. Looks are killer and sexy. Service of Hyundai are best 24*7 No pros and cons from my side but it depends how we are using the car.For long distance travel it is the best car. Having lots of comfort and luxury feeling in it.
