Image gallery: 2015 Volkswagen Vento
Volkswagen has just refreshed the Vento. The car features cosmetic changes only as the German manufacturer has stayed away from upgrading the engines or transmissions. The revisions are in light of fresh competition from cars such as the Maruti Suzuki Ciaz, Honda City, Hyundai 4S Verna and the Skoda Rapid. Changes have been made to the front and rear bumpers that sport a rather generous splattering of chrome. The tail lamp layout is revised too. View the image gallery to find out what's new.
The front resembles the current crop of VWs
The new front grille and bumper gives the Vento a slightly mature face
The rear bumper is revised and gets a chrome strip like the one across the boot lid. The badging sits lower than before
The Vento's handsome lines are retained
The front grille looks like the Passat. Single chrome strip runs across the larger air dam
The new Vento gets blacked out headlights. Bumper edges get creases that continue into the front fenders
Fog lamp is lifted off the new Polo
Chrome highlights on the door handles are new
The tail lamps get a new layout but essentially are the same, save for subtle aero kink on the outer edge
The Vento now gets ORVMs with integrated turn indicators
The interiors wear a darker beige colour
Chilled glovebox is a new feature
The engines from the current Vento are carried forward sans any changes
Electric boot release is introduced
The silhouette is the same as the current Vento
The Vento remains a poised and confident handler
The 2015 Vento gets a new alloy wheel design
Apart from colour changes, the interiors remain the same
