Volkswagen Virtus GT Line & Taigun GT Line Now In New Flash Red Colour

The Volkswagen Virtus GT Line and Taigun GT Line now sport a new Flash Red exterior colour. This vibrant shade is reminiscent of the popular red that was seen on the VW Polo in India. Offered for a limited number of units, this colour option adds a sporty touch to both models, setting them apart from the existing Cherry Red variant.

Both the Taigun GT Line and Virtus GT Line are designed for enthusiasts seeking a sporty appearance paired with VW's 1-litre turbo-petrol engine. These cars feature numerous blacked-out elements and stylish wheels, enhancing their appeal. The Taigun further distinguishes itself with an optional dual-tone black roof, although no other design changes have been made to either model.
