Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Hyundai i20
- Looks like a youth friendly hatchback which never fails to grab attention
- Space: Can seat three people at the back in comfort
Maruti Suzuki Celerio
- Spacious and comfortable cabin: Can seat four adults in good comfort.
- Performance is peppy for the city and returns a good fuel efficiency too.
- Good features: Ticks all the functional equipment, along with some extra comfort features.
- Easy to drive: Light clutch, light steering and good low-end performance makes it new-driver friendly.

Hyundai i20
- Single NA petrol engine: No option of diesel and turbo-petrol limited to N Line version
- Stiff ride quality: Could be more comfortable for a family car
Maruti Suzuki Celerio
- Not so stable: Ride quality at higher speeds feels firm and causes some side-to-side cabin movement.
- Limited cabin practicality: Could be better with more storage space in front of and behind the handbrake.
- Base LXi and VXi variants are not value for money: Pack only the absolute basics.
