After introducing mild facelifts for the Polo and Vento earlier this month, Volkswagen India has introduced a ‘Corporate Edition’ on the diesel variants of the Polo, Ameo, Vento & Tiguan. In lieu of the recent announcement made by the Indian Govt, this edition, applicable on select variants, is introduced in an attempt to pass on the benefits received from the Govt. through a reduction in corporate tax.
For customers that are apprehensive on the future of diesel vehicles, Volkswagen has also announced a 5-year warranty and 5-year roadside assistance on the above-mentioned carlines. It would, in turn, offer customers peace of mind and a hassle-free experience with Volkswagen. The Volkswagen Corporate edition is applicable for corporate individuals as well as organizations across industries, which include MSMEs, Government employees, Lawyers, Architects, Chartered Accountants and many more. The edition covers a suite of offerings comprising of attractive benefits on the purchase, servicing of the vehicle, accessories as well as loyalty benefits. The Corporate edition will be available across Volkswagen’s network of 132 sales & 113 service touchpoints across 102 cities in India.
