Volkswagen has officially introduced the Polo Select and Vento Celeste for the Indian market. These are limited editions of the cars that boast of some exterior and interior enhancements over the standard vehicles.
Dubbed as the Polo Select and Vento Celeste, these special editions are based on the highline variants of the VW cars. The additional features on both cars include black side body moulding, a carbon finish for the ORVMs and a black vinyl roof. The Polo Select gets a chrome embellishment on the tail gate and the Vento Celeste features a trunk lip spoiler. The cabin of the cars feature a carbon finish centre console, detachable window blinds and textile mats. The Polo additionally gets new seat covers with the VW logo and four scuff plates. On the other hand, the Vento gets a Blaupunkt touchscreen infotainment system with navigation.
The powertrain remains the same for both the cars and there are no mechanical changes. Volkswagen hasn't mentioned a particular price for these variants, but says that these variants will be limited in number. Dealers in Mumbai are offering this kit as per the customer's requirement. One can pick and select required equipment from this kit ranging from Rs 16,000 to Rs 45,000.
These small tweaks do enhance the appeal of the car and many customers have already opted for these kits earlier as after-market accessories. If you are planning to buy a Polo or a Vento soon, do have a look at these variants. However, we would also suggest to wait for a while and also consider the upcoming compact sedan from Volkswagen - the Ameo. The car is exclusively designed for the Indian market and is expected to be launched this month. Stay tuned to read our first drive of the Ameo in a couple of days.
