Volkswagen India had started its operations in India around 2010 by setting up a plant around Chakan, Pune. Volkswagen Polo and Vento are the best selling models for the German carmaker in India and Volkswagen clearly wants to capitalise on the same. While the Polo and Vento are designed with clean and straight lines they are getting a bit long on the tooth now. Seven years is a long life cycle for any model in India and VW keeps refreshing the models with new updates and feature additions, to keep them in the mix.
The inauguration of Volkswagen Erode will take the total network to 122 showrooms in 106 cities across India. The 3S facility is located at the following address, No: 327/2B, Perundurai Road, Erode- 638012.
