    VW has plonked the Polo GT TSI’s 1.2-litre petrol engine and the same gearbox into the Vento. We take it for a quick spin.

    The Vento isn’t an astute handler. The car doesn’t beg you to throw it into a corner and the steering, though light, is also a bit numb. However, you can still drive this car quick with confidence and it is rock-solid at high speeds. 
     
    At Rs 9.99 lakh, the TSI is the most expensive petrol variant of the Vento. But what you get is a car that’s easy to drive in the city and on the highway, it’s quick, and comes with a smaller engine that makes almost the same power as the older, larger units while returning far better fuel efficiency. Simply put, this Vento is the best petrol mid-sizer you can buy today.
