Definitely! If you have a budget of 50 lakhs plus maintenance one would go for Merc-A class like compact sedans, but if you have a fortune of 20 lakhs on the road, the options are handful and ‘THE BEST STANDOUT’ is the Volkswagen Virtus! Dear readers, I borrowed this particular piece of art from one of my good friend for a road trip in which all kind of terrain was part of. The Virtus in its shiny red colour and pearl black alloys were a diamond to the eye, the aggressive-looking leds would shock the ‘aww’ out of people looking at it in their orvms. This monstrous-headturner with it’s 1L (1000cc) engine roars it’s way out of the valleys of Nashik old highways, taking twisti-ies like it was made to do so never lacking a bit of it’s bhp and never falling out of it’s gear. On the expressway this engine which may sound smaller to few audience was a beast, stabilising even at 180 Kmph the damping and the suspension control was so good that you might feel confident to take that sip of your bottle with grabbing that comfy leather steering with one hand. The beauty of this car standing at parking with little droplets of water on it, all thanks to the heavenly nature, everyone passing would once stop and glance at this German beauty and tell me ‘Waah! Kya khubsurat gaadi hai aapki!’(Wow! What a beautiful car it is). Definitely! After such a road trip covering more than 2000kms in this ‘ENDURANCE-MACHINE’, all we needed was a service and I am glad I was a part of it so I can share the experience here. The premium-ness could be felt at its highest at the Volkswagen service station even though it’s only the second top-of-the-line car the company has to offer. With a quick cup of coffee and the head mechanic explaining his heart out with none issues we had with the car, the service men were honest and compassionate and offered their skills in just an hour. In the end, the conclusion of mine with the Virtus in this long road trip will forever stay in my heart. The comfort ‘Top-Notch’. The performance ‘Godly’. The look ‘Alluring’. The price ‘Reasonable’. Pros : 1. The best car in the segment. 2. Good ground clearance even in mountain roads. 3. Head-turner for sure! 4. Beastly yet Linear performance. Cons : 1. Some plastic part might feel flimsy, but nothing to worry about. 2. Everyone will ask and talk to you about this beauty so keep answers ready. 3. It’s a large car, might face difficult to park in tight spaces.
