Pros and Cons

  • Pros
  • Cons

    Hyundai Elantra

    • Wonderfully balanced ride quality. Super comfortable in the city.
    • Engine-transmission combination is well tuned. Offers a smooth, hassle free drive on all fronts.
    • Convenience features like ventilated seats and wireless charger are a must have in today’s conditions.

    Tata Zest

    • Expansive feature list: projector headlamps, daytime running lamps, 8-speaker audio system - the lot!
    • Refined petrol and torquey diesel engines. Take your pick!
    • Ample legroom and shoulder room for rear occupants. Boot space is a healthy 390-litres as well.
    • Ride quality is among the best in its class. 170mm of ground clearance means you can be slightly careless on broken roads.
