Volkswagen Golf GTI

- The 2-litre TSI engine making 265 PS and 370 Nm offers an exhilarating performance and its goes from 0-100kmph in just 5.9 seconds
- Handles like a pro and feels like it's hugging the road while cornering, which further inspires confidence and elevates your drive experience.

Skoda Kodiaq
- No ADAS on offer. Not acceptable at this price point.
- Currently available only with a petrol engine, lacking diesel or hybrid alternatives.
- 3rd row isn’t comfortable for adults.
- Sportline variant misses some important features like Hill Start Assist, Seat Ventillation and 360-degree camera, which is surprising at this price point which is surprising at this price
Volkswagen Golf GTI

- It misses out on some features like leatherette seats, powered seats, and a branded sound system, all which are offered in much affordable cars.
