Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Volkswagen Golf GTI
- Looks like a true hot hatch: Gets red accents, 18-inch alloy wheels, and red GTI badges.
- Fun-to-drive: 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: Feels like it's hugging the road while cornering, which further inspires confidence and elevates your drive experience.
Toyota Fortuner Legender
- Better design: It has a more stylish and more modern design compared to the standard Fortuner
- Drive convenience: Gives you the option of an automatic transmission with diesel 4X4
- Longitivity: Comes with a rough and tough build quality which will last a long time

Volkswagen Golf GTI
- Inconsistent cabin quality: While the cabin does have soft touch materials, the plastics feel rough and do not feel right in this cabin. Not expected at this price point.
- Missing features: Does not get leatherette seats, powered seats, and a branded sound system, all which are offered in much affordable cars.
Toyota Fortuner Legender
- Too expensive: The price premium you pay for mostly cosmetic updates over the standard Fortuner feels high
- Less powertrain options: Does not come with the petrol engine option
- For its price, it does not come with the 11-speaker sound system you get in the standard Fortuner
