The diesel variant is available with both manual and automatic transmissions, but the 1.2 petrol engine can only be had with DSG automatic gearbox. However, the 1.6 petrol engine is offered with a manual gearbox.
Some of the competitors of VW Vento areHonda City, Maruti Suzuki Ciaz and Hyundai Verna. Honda launched the facelifted City in February this year, while the next-generation Verna is likely to be launched in August.
