The Volkswagen Vento has not been doing particularly well in the Indian car market. Many buyers are of the opinion that the Vento lacks equipment. However, Volkswagen is well aware of this and have finally added more features to the Vento. The German automaker has updated the top end Highline variant which will now get audio controls on steering wheel, USB socket (in the glovebox), leather wrapped steering wheel and rear parking sensors. The company has increased the price of the Vento by close to Rs. 20,000/- which is why the Vento highline diesel is priced at Rs. 11.53 lakhs (on-road, Mumbai).

Sachin, petrol cars are not selling so they will do anything to ensure they clear the stocks.
