Volkswagen India plans to launch the Vento on October 3 in India. VW India has stopped the Polo 1.6 petrol model earlier in this year and it has recently launched its Polo GT TSI. The Vento GT TSI will get the 105PS 1.2 TSI engine as well as the dual-clutch automatic transmission from the Polo GT TSI. The 1.2 liter petrol engine can develop maximum power of 105 PS and torque of 153 Nm.
The Vento GT TSI will produce the same power as the 1.6 Vento AT. The Vento GT TSI can produce maximum torque output at lower RPM which will lead to reduced fuel consumption and better drivability. It is the main advantage of Vento GT TSI when compared to 1.6 Vento AT.
It is expected that the car would not receive any changes in the both interior and exterior. It will get GT badge as similar to the Polo GT. We can expect the price of Vento GT TSI is Rs 50,000 more than the current Vento 1.6 AT.
