THRILLS REDEFINED

The VW Virtus turns three! We take a moment to celebrate it

- 

It feels like only a fleeting moment ago that we geared up for the launch of VW's Virtus sedan and yet here we are, three years since. Yes, it's been three years since Volkswagen Virtus gracefully emerged onto the Indian automotive landscape — a svelte, refined sedan venturing into an era seemingly captivated by the ubiquitous SUV. And what a transformative three years it has proven to be.

You see, back then, the automotive landscape was rapidly transforming into an untameable SUV-fest. Every manufacturer, it seemed, was scrambling to offer their own high-riding, butch-looking machine. The narrative was clear: if you wanted to be cool, if you wanted space, if you wanted presence, you needed an SUV. But then came the Virtus, a defiant whisper in a chorus of roars, a testament to the enduring appeal of the sedan.
