Dual front airbags, ABS, hill hold and ESP (AT only), auto AC, cruise control, auto dimming IRVM, rear parking sensors, height adjustable driver seat, electrically adjustable and foldable ORVMs and a 6.5-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and Volkswagen Connect are some of the key features that these cars pack. In addition to these, the Ameo B&W Edition also gets a reverse parking camera.
