GST Rate Cut: Check out Volkswagen Virtus Variant-wise Price Drop
- Volkswagen Virtus prices have received a significant revision due to the new GST 2.0 implementation effective from September 22, 2025.
- The GST rate cut has led to a price drop ranging from ₹40,000 to ₹66,900 depending on the variant, making this premium midsize sedan more affordable.
Volkswagen Virtus is a popular midsize sedan known for German engineering, stylish looks, and strong performance. It competes in a segment with rivals such as the Honda City and Hyundai Verna. Until now, the high GST rate including cess weighed heavily on its pricing.
With the new GST 2.0 rates, mid-size sedans including Virtus are now taxed at a flat 40% GST, removing the previous cess and reducing the effective tax burden. This results in noticeable price cuts across different variants, benefitting buyers looking for value without compromising on quality.
