Rumour: VW Polo & Vento production to end in Q2, 2022

Vento sales to end in May, while the bookings for the Polo will be stopped in June this year.

If the latest rumours are to be believed, we could witness a major reshuffle in the Volkswagen line-up in the weeks to come. We all know that the Vento is being replaced with a new mid-size sedan, but another model that could face the axe is the Polo.

It is said that production of the Polo and Vento could end in Q2 of 2022. Vento sales are planned till May, while the bookings for the Polo will be stopped in June this year.

While it may be the end of the road for the Polo in India for now, a replacement based on the MQB-A0-IN platform seems plausible. Reports suggest that VW could bring the seventh-gen Polo to India, albeit with major modifications to meet the sub-4 metre tax laws.

Meanwhile, the upcoming Virtus will represent the brand in the mid-size sedan segment. It is based on the MQB-A0-IN platform, which is shared with the Taigun.
