Skoda Auto Volkswagen India’s 2.0 strategy will see the launch of two sedans and two SUVs each from the Skoda and Volkswagen brand. Now that both the brands have showcased their SUVs -- the Skoda Kushaq and VW Taigun -- the European carmakers will be launching their sedans -- the Vento and Rapid successors -- by early 2022. It’s the sedan version of the sixth-gen Polo, which is yet to be launched in India. A look at the Virtus head-on might confuse you to the Polo due to its identical styling. A newer version of the Rapid is on sale in Russia, but it’s based on the older PQ25 platform, which also underpins current Polo, Vento and Rapid in India.
