All-new Volkswagen Santana deliveries get underway

MANILA: CW Home Depot, a home construction and renovation store in the Philippines receives the first fleet of the all-new VW Santana. Yes, its one of the five cars that were launched recently in the Philippines by Volkswagen.

Recently, Volkswagen PH delivered four units of Santana to the company that are said to be issued to its top sales performers for client visits and sales meetings. Available at an SRP of Php 686,000, the new Santana comes with a 3-year or 100,000km general warranty, whichever is reached first. The sedan is offered with another 3-year through-corrosion warranty for main steel body and for the paint. The Santana comes with a PMS interval of one year or every 10,000kms, whichever is reached first. Volkswagen said that the CW Home Depot’s choice to pick the new Santana is in line with their brand proposition in terms of practicality, convenience, and efficiency.

For unawares, the new Santana is powered by the Euro 5-compliant 1.4-litre, four-cylinder MPI engine that produces 90 PS at 5,500 rpm and 132 Nm of peak torque at 3,800rpm while being mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox. From sophisticated interiors to striking looks and safety-packed spec sheet, the new Santana ticks all the right boxes. 

Now with the first four units of Santana getting delivered, competitors like Honda and Toyota would have had their thinking cap on to devise new strategies and boost sales of the City and the new Vios respectively. The Santana being the most affordable VW in the country certainly gets an added advantage of getting picked over others.
