Truth be told, you can actually carry more people and cargo in these Sedans and they ride much better on most roads and don't roll around as much. And perform much better, give better economy (less drag, low weight). People are going in the wrong direction with crossovers.

Nah. An enthusiast would just go for a higher revving 4 cylinder VTEC motor with a manual and put better tires, brakes and a good set of shocks or even coilovers. Now that's a proper car. Although none of these cars are really enthusiasts cars by any sense of the word.

@Autocar India- With due respect, i failed to understand how can we can compare a sedan ( All new 5th gen city) which starts from 13L and ends somewhere around more than 17L (Even though base model is decently equipped).All others cars starts from 9.5L and ends at 12.5 to 13L at max including honda city 4th gen.In my point of view 5th gen city is one class higher in terms of equipments and features for which it absorbs a whole 2.5 to 3L more.Its not a entry level mid size sedan like others.Its somewhere inbetween midsize entry level and premium sedan class like octavia,elantra etc. 5th gen city cannot be compared with entry level midsize sedans.If compared obviously it will be the winner.
@jeetroychoudhury18403 жыл бұрын
my take after owning the HONDA CITY ZX PETROL for almost 8 months now (hope new buyers check these things out) - firstly, you have to downshift for overtakes, its absolutely slow below 3500 rpm, and then pushing it in a lower gear significantly hits your mileage and you feel you are pushing the engine (therefore not effortless). secondly, the ride is not plush, its downright bouncy and you hear thuds on the smallest of pot holes, (which are otherwise not even considered potholes in India). Hit a slightly bigger pot hole, or drive it over a small bumper (the absolute small ones being placed on roads these days), and you will hear a horrifying sound from your wheels which will make you feel you just lost your axle. The tyre size is too small for the car and the ground clearance is not accustomed to Indian road conditions at all, the suspension is a gimmick. Oh! and the electronics, they are not glitch free.

Easy.. 1. Vento / skoda if you like to drive. But are willing to compromise with bad interiors, and understand it's the driving experience that you will buy for. 2. City if you have deep pockets and must have a sedan (and not creta/seltos/harrier). And need the extra back seat and interior quality. 3. Maruti, well if penny pinching is your style and you don't really care about safety, but rather maintenance ease and cost. 4. Hyundai... Well if you just need a car, and couldn't be bothered to see the selling points, but want a steady pick. 5. And finally Yaris. I can't think of a single selling point. Other than perhaps. A. You must have a Toyota. B. Or you made a mistake.

Rapid and Vento are the only 2 cars which looks like and actual sedan and both have an fun engine to drive and also gives a good range the only negative which I found in those sedans are service costs. The king (Honda City obv) actually has no negatives except for ground clearance but who cares, sedans are not meant for that and yes iVtec kicked in yo too. Verna is also feature packed but lacks rear space is a disappointment. The yaaris has the best ground clearance, the best reliability, ambient light and Toyota Qservice disadvantages are it's look. Ciaz if u a want a MS as I didn't find a reason to buy it it might have most boot and rear space it lacks on under thigh support which equally important as leg room and biggest miss build quality
