Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Volkswagen Virtus
- Classy, understated styling. Sporty GT variant on offer too
- Feature-loaded: 8-inch digital driver’s display, 10.1-inch touchscreen, ventilated seats, electric sunroof are among the highlights
- 521 litre boot is segment leading. 60:40 split rear seats bumps up practicality
- Strong engine options: 1- and 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engines promise excitement
Skoda Kylaq
- Fun! 1-litre TSI engine is fun to push hard and puts a smile on your face.
- Practical. Ample space for four 6-footers. Cabin storage is very well thought out too.
- 446-litre boot space is more than sufficient for 4 cabin-sized trolley bags.
- Enough features: sunroof, ventilated and powered front seats, 10.1-inch touchscreen.

Volkswagen Virtus
- Lack of width and strong seat contouring means the Virtus is best used as a four seater
- No diesel engine option. Verna and City offer a diesel
Skoda Kylaq
- No diesel or CNG options available.
- 1-litre turbo petrol engine can be very thirsty in heavy city traffic. Expect 10kmpl at best.
- Minor annoyances: poor camera quality, noisy seat ventilation blowers spoil the experience.
