Volkswagen Vento 2015 Expert Review - The Subtle Choice
The Vento has been the entry-level sedan for the VW brand. This sedan is based on the Polo and has been on sale since 2010. Since then it has been getting timely updates, be it cosmetic changes, features and even engines. Since its launch, it has got two new engines and even a double-clutch transmission too.
However, the 2015 model year upgrade for the Vento has been a major cosmetic upgrade, especially after the launch of the new 1.5-litre diesel engine and automatic transmission. So, do the cosmetic changes on the Vento justify the upgrade? We lay our hands on the new Vento and tell you more in detail about it.
Appearance Exterior
The Vento is a premium sedan from Volkswagen, however it did look a lot similar to the Polo. This has been a let down for several of those car buyers who have been looking to distant themselves from the Polo-kind-of-look as they preferred sometime that is a lot more premium and subtle in styling.
Volkswagen has been listening to the customer feedback and they have introduced the updated version of the Vento. The Vento now has a three-chrome horizontal slat grille that makes it look a lot more premium and stylish. This looks like a bigger and more mature sedan than what the Vento actually looked. The new large-size fog lamps stand out on the new Vento. There is a very subtle thin chrome strip on the car at multiple points.
Germans know how to design a subtle car and the Vento is one of the best examples for this. There is no too much extra chrome but extremely subtle and stylish looking sedan. The Vento looks more like the Jetta than the Polo now, which differentiates it and it does stand out.
Appearance Interior
The interiors of the Vento are extremely premium. The Vento earlier had very basic features when it was launched in 2010 and since then several new additional features have been provided on the Vento. The interiors have evolved and now they are simple, stylish and yet they look premium.
The piano black sections on the steering wheel do feel premium and now the black on white text on all the display panels contributes to the subtleness. It is easy on the eyes and doesn’t look too loud either. The Vento’s three-spoke steering wheel has all the controls neatly located. We were looking for all the minute nick-nacks that we can point out as faulty, but got none expect the armrest which we found a bit out of place, especially while shifting gears. There is now the electrically folding ORVMs, then there is also a cruise control mode. Other changes include a cooled glove box and new interior colour themes of ‘Walnut desert beige’ (in Highline) and ‘Cloud – Titanschwarz’ (in Trendline and Comfortline).
The seats of this premium sedan are large and comfortable. There is sufficient space for tall people and good thigh and back support too. The rear seats too are comfortable and with the centre armrest it feels a lot more relaxed to sit at the back. The boot of the Vento too is large enough to hold luggage for four people for an entire weekend.
Performance Drive
The Vento comes with three engine options, 1.2-litre turbo petrol with a seven-speed dual clutch transmission, second is a 1.6-litre petrol with a five-speed manual transmission and a 1.5-litre diesel engine with a five-speed manual and seven-speed dual clutch transmission. The Vento 1.2-litre is our pick of the petrol engine options. This engine produces 103bhp of power and has good enough grunt to drive with ease in the city. Push the throttle and you can easily overtake in city or even the highway. The dual-clutch transmission is smooth and is very easy to shift.
The same is the case with the diesel engine. This is a torquey with sufficient grunt to drive with ease in city or even the highway. This diesel engine is one of the most powerful when it comes to real world (of course in its segment), especially the spool that the turbo produces makes it exciting. The Vento diesel is highly fuel-efficient and one of the most powerful diesel cars that are sold today. The automatic version of the Vento should be your pick of the lot as it makes driving stress free and you do not even miss out the quick shifts one can achieve with a manual transmission. The gearbox is seamless and very easy to use. For those who want the manual transmission, the clutch now is lighter and this makes it easier to clutch and de-clutch as well.
The ride quality of the Vento is phenomenal and it is a tad softer at the rear to make it a lot more comfortable and convenient for those who are chauffeur driven. The Vento has been designed for both kind of audience, one who likes to drive and those who like to be driven. The handling of the Vento is precise. The alacrity of the chassis on winding roads is far superior to most of the competition and the tyres offer a good grip. The electronic steering wheel is light and easy to drive in the city or even the highway. It feels well connected on most of the occasions despite being light. The Vento’s driving dynamics is one of its strong USPs.

Conclusion
At this premium mid-size sedan party, the Volkswagen Vento has dressed up in a Tuxedo. This one is subtle, catchy and worth a second glance. The Germans know how to make a car and how they know what the Indian car market needs. The Vento now is tailored to what the Indian consumers want and is ideally the best one can pick in the market.
It is built like tank, fun to drive and fuel-efficient too. It doesn’t come with the features that some of the competition offers, but for the price it is an ideal pick. One downside to the Vento is the cost of ownership and resale value, where the Japanese competitors have an edge.

Nothing
What Can ImproveVW is a proven cheater and they don't care about their customers one bit. VW has not learnt anything from the hefty fine on cheating in USA. When a company can cheat the most powerful government in the world, how will they care about us? VW sold a faulty car to me last year and I've been trying to put my point across the who's who in VW, both in India and even Germany for more than an year now, but to no avail. The problem is that they sold a faulty car to me. The paint on top corroded with 6 months of buying the car The welding from the joint cracked as well. Within 1 year, the battery had to be replaced and I had to pay for the same. After a few months, the coolant leaked while I was on tour 500 kms away from hometown. This happened within 5 days of getting the car serviced. How on earth can something like this happen within a week of servicing the vehicle. I'm 100% sure that they would have charged lakhs from me had the car not been under warranty. The customer care does not respond at all.

What Can Improvebad
Dear Sir, I have purchased Volkswagon vento 1.6(MT) trendline in Oct 2011. Since then I am regularly driving the Car on daily basis. I regular cover around 15-20 KM per day. From last 2-3 days I found the problem in shifting the gear while driving the CAR on inclined roads. Once I select the gear to 2nd,3rd and 4th even though accelerating the vehicle I am not able to move forward the VEHICLE but in 1st gear it is working fine on inclined roads. When I contacted the service centre person he suggested me to replace the gear selector mechanism. But I am very disappointed by hearing this, because • Its only 3rd year and such a major gear transmition failure happened in the CAR • My feeling is volkswagon is the most reliable design and within 3rd year of car purchase such major failure is causing me to change my perception • After I purchased the CAR my 16 friends purchased the CAR in my company and your company has selected “Secure Meters Limited Udaipur (Rajasthan) in corporate discount list • I am the single person who drives this car • I am driving the CAR on daily basis since 1998, almost 16years. • I drove Maruti, Hundai and never found any problem in their CAR but the first experience of Volkswagon is very bad for me. • Till date I covered near to 22000KM I am attaching the snapshot of same for your reference. Request you to please look into the problem and give me proper resolution by replacing this gear selector mechanism. I hope you also conduct the root cause analysis of this problem. Please also find my details Name – Vibhanshu Bhardwaj CAR no RJ27-CB- 9785 Location – Udaipur Servise Centre Contact No - 9414290237 Warm Regards Vibhanshu Bhardwaj
- Whats Good
Very sturdy build quality. Feels very safe inside. Fit and finish is superb as compared to most Korean/Japanese cars in India. the diesel engine is fantastic - very thrifty thanks to the great gear ratios which make it easy to drive in slow traffic. The turbo kicks in early and combined with the torque, lets you enjoy power when you need it. The gear lever is a pleasure, almost moves itself smoothly and surely.
What Can ImproveThe boot touches road humps when you have people and/or luggage in the back. Painfully irritating in cities which don't have good roads. The audio system is a joke, not even close to what you should be getting for the price you are paying. The cost of maintenance is very high - annual service cost is 12000-15000. If you have an accident, the cost is scary unless you have bumper-to-bumper insurance which itself is very expensive. Also drinks engine oil. You have to keep an eye on it and usually have to top it up in between services.

overall running
What Can ImproveWhy doesn't the headlight/indicators switch off after switching off the car after parking. Very strange!!
the rear windows should go down fully!!
- Whats Good
Strong Built, Nice average but huge servicing cost as compared with competetors
What Can ImproveRear door power window controls with driver (Missing), rear passenger control to set from passenger seat. LOw ground clearance can be improved for Indian roads.
One all a good car but co. officials are non concerned about the customers even after raising concerns to company officials.
