Know before you choose

  • The current price tables offer 1.5 TSI with DSG only. Older 1.5 manual and GT variants are not carried into this guide as current offers.
  • Hill-hold is absent on Comfortline and the Highline, Highline Plus and GT Line manuals; Topline manual includes it. Do not assume all six-airbag grades have identical equipment.
  • GT Line uses the 1.0 TSI. Its sunroof, digital cockpit and black styling do not establish the 1.5 engine, ventilated seats or electric front seats.

Delivery checklistKnow what to check before taking the keys.

Virtus delivery checklist

A quick pre-delivery inspection (PDI) before you accept your car.

  • Match the VIN, Virtus variant, powertrain and paint on the vehicle against your order and invoice before accepting delivery.
  • Inspect the clean car in daylight: paint, panels, glass, tyres, lights, seats and every promised accessory. Photograph concerns and get a written resolution.
  • Ask the dealer to demonstrate a normal start, dashboard warning-light self-check, air conditioning, keys and the controls fitted to your variant.

Twelve current offers were captured from Volkswagen’s Chrome and Sport price tables. Both currently linked brochures were visually reviewed; their printed issue date remains January 2025.

Brochures establish specifications and trim equipment; price sources are identified below. On-road prices, real-world efficiency, running costs and buying verdicts are Let’s Pick My Car estimates or opinions. “Not verified” means the reviewed sources do not settle that fact.
