It's no secret that the Volkswagen Virtus GT is one of the best driver cars this side of the twenty lakh rupee mark. To offer a more distilled driving experience, Volkswagen has equipped the Virtus GT with a new six-speed manual gearbox. Does it really enhance the experience though, especially when the sedan already comes with a sophisticated automatic gearbox that impresses with its shift times and seamlessness? More importantly, is purity a worthy tradeoff for convenience in this case?
There is nothing to differentiate the manual from the automatic variant. It's been two years since the Virtus first broke cover and it still looks fresh, with its clean lines and understated wheels that neatly fill the wheel aches. The interiors too look elegant with a clean dashboard and a sizeable list of features. While the Virtus boasts of a full five-star GNCAP safety ratings, it misses out on ADAS which we expect it to feature in the next update. Overall the Virtus is a well-proportioned and premium looking sedan with ample cabin and boot space.
