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.

Love it

I got this in black colour. This car is Affordable and great comfort. I recommend and it. This is my first Nissan can and I love it. If you are planning to get a car with comfort and nice trunk space Better mileage go for it.

Highlights

By CarWale Team16 Sep 2011

So, if the Sunny really has to shine then it must offer space, equipment, reliability, power and economy. But does Nissan’s new Sunny offer all these? AUTO BILD INDIA’s forthcoming issue has the answer to that one
