The driver could not control his car and ended up crashing from the back. The impact was pretty bad as you can see the entire front portion has been crushed. The bonnet, engine components, bumpers, all have been damaged beyond repair. However, the damage was only limited to this and the side fenders.

The doors have not been damaged that badly and even the alloy wheels are in shape. If you look inside the cabin, there’s not a single scratch visible. For that matter, even the windscreen has not shattered. The steering wheel, seats and equipments inside the cabin are in the same place before the accident.

All the passengers inside the cabin were safe and walked away without any scratches too. The airbags have also deployed and that’s the only thing different inside the cabin. The owner is very happy with the strong build quality of Volkswagen Vento and has said that his next buy will also be a Volkswagen.
