SEVERAL CARS TODAY FEEL LIKE THEY have a lot but still have that nagging feeling like something's missing; like the last piece or few pieces of the puzzle simply aren't there. The new Volkswagen Virtus manages to cover all the bases while excelling at the one thing most forget to remember a car was meant to be driven.

Sporty but elegant cabin is hugely appealing

Yet, the enthusiast-the one who wants to drive, unlike those who simply need to commute and lack access to clean and dependable public transport-wants to feel what it is like to drive a proper car. The definitive car which a child draws when asked to draw a "car". In a sea of pseudo SUVs, the sedan body style is not dead. Quite the contrary. It's alive and kicking hard!
