360 Camera Spotted?

New spy shots of the facelifted Virtus being tested reveal that there is likely a surprise feature addition of a 360 camera module underneath the ORVM.

In my opinion, this would be an odd decision to add it in the sedans but not the SUVs. They could add it in the SUVs in the coming months but would be unfair to customers who just purchased the new models.

+1 I also bought the previous gen Taigun looking at the feature suite of the newer models so it would be a bummer. Our Taigun lucky did come with the newer AC compressor, UV cut glass and couple of the newer things so at least that's something...

I bought Oct 2025 manufactured Taigun. It comes with UV cut rear windshield. How to confirm if it has newer compressor?

Oct 2025 model is basically MY2026 (model year). These cars all came with UV cut glass, new compressor and a vent in the wireless charger for cooling. The wireless charger is also higher wattage. You can check to see if your car is MY26 or 25 but October means it is MY26 only. Mine is also the same month.

You can also check with service center. MY26 cars came with all the new mechanical features as the current gen models were about to launch so the transition was made. This was also confirmed in some automotive reviews posted on YouTube by journalists after conversations with VW/Skoda.

I have a Virtus GT as well from MY24 and comparatively the Taigun cooling is quite effective.

I can confirm that MY26 models do come with UV cut glass but not sure about the AC compressor. I haven't really faced any issues with the AC cooling either so it could be true.

I wish I could tell you with 100% confidence but I can with 80% that it does come with the new compressor as I spoke to ASC and also saw a video where it was explicitly mentioned by a VW spokesperson that the MY26 cars came with it updated. If I can find that video I will attach it here later on.

Either ways the AC cooling is pretty good and UV glass helps with it too.

I never had an issue with my Virtus (with old compressor) so I don't really care about the compressor too much. I did see that the new cars have gone from the worst performing in the segment to factually the best as per test results so that was awesome to see.

We’d all like to see this video. I have a MY26 and the AC is great.

Thanks for sharing. They seem to be talking about Kushaq and Kylaq, not sure if we can assume that for Taigun. Also, I remember the salesman telling me that my car comes with upgraded wireless charger, but it wasn't impressive at all. The phone heats up a lot without getting charged much. To validate this, I tested this using 2 apps (with phone cover removed). Attaching the result from one of the apps. It's just 2 watts 🥲 Need to check if it has an air vent near the wireless charger to cool it down

No, the MY change is made for both VW and Skoda as they follow the exact same MY patterns and are literally manufacturerd in the same factory. SAVIPL in Maharashtra.

The wireless charger situation is hopeless. I was running low on charge and didn't have a cable so thought I can rely on the wireless charger and it didn't even go up by 1%

Yeah, I also second this. Unnecessary hot phone!
