The Ameo was born out of Volkswagen’s need for a compact sedan in India. With the rising popularity of the sub-4 metre compact sedans, Volkswagen had to introduce one too and it happened to be the Ameo. Launched soon after the Auto Expo in 2016, it has all the bells and whistles along with several segment-first features. It’s available in five variants which include Trendline, Comfortline, Comfortline Plus, Highline and Highline Plus. It is available in a commuter-friendly 1.2-litre MPI petrol engine along with a powerful 1.5-litre TDI, which can be had with a 7-speed DSG gearbox. The prices range from Rs 5.5 lakh to Rs 10 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).
