Priced nearly INR 1 lakh higher than the VW Vento Highline.
Volkswagen has launched the VW Vento Highline Plus in India with prices starting at INR 10.85 lakh (ex-showroom Mumbai). The Highline Plus forms the top-end trim level and brings three new features to the car.
From the outside, the VW Vento Highline Plus is instantly recognised with full LED headlamps that have integrated LED daytime running lights. The 15-inch Zirkonia alloy wheels also remain unchanged from the Highline grade.
The interior of the Highline Plus trim level is no different from the Highline trim level. Regarding functional equipment, the only advantage the Vento Highline Plus has compared to the Vento Highline is the touchscreen infotainment system with reverse parking camera. It is worth noting that Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are unavailable even in this newly introduced top-end grade's infotainment system, or is satellite navigation.
