The ‘Sound’ branding can also be found on the front A-pillar tweeters. Other features include electric front seats, puddle lamps, and footwell illumination.

This engine can produce a maximum power output of 115hp and 178Nm of torque. Buyers can choose between 6-speed manual and automatic gearbox options.
Mr. Ashish Gupta, Brand Director, Volkswagen Passenger Cars India, said, “At Volkswagen, we have always believed in enhancing the value we offer to customers through our safe, fun-to-drive, German-engineered cars. The Sound Edition is a testament to this very thought, as we aim to augment acoustic experiences and make them as exciting as driving a Volkswagen. With the introduction of Sound Edition, we are also glad to roll out our year-end bonanza with the launch of Big Rush. We are certain that the attractive benefits on offer will appeal to discerning customers as we introduce them to one of India’s safest line-up of cars.”
