From the comparisons made above, the tata nexon can be seen best suited for Mr. D.S. Pughazhyendhii, the driveability of the car can be seen best suited for both city conditions and at highway conditions as Mr D.S Pughazhyendhii, lives in banglore and the city is crowded and has the traffic issues thus the nexon can easily driveable at internsic conditions.With the help of hill assist the car can be hold back in steeper conditions of the road if encountered in heavy traffic conditions, the width if the vehicle is little more compared to other three vehicles thus Mr D.S Pughazhyendhii's parents can sit with more comfort even in the rear seats. As Mr. D.S. Pughazhyendhii have a 5 year old boy the isofix child seat mounts can ensure the safety of the child, the combination of Independent, Lower Wishbone, McPherson Strut with Coil Spring and shock absorber in the front and Semi- independent closed profile Twist beam with coil pring and shock absorber in the rear ensures maximum comfort for the passengers in the car and the car can be driven covering longer distances with minimal fatigue, the placement of the fuel tank in the middle of the car ensures the stability thus easy control of the car in more speeds is easy. with the help of Roll-over mitigation, the rolling of vehicle is predicted and prevented. Hydraulic brake assist helps in predictive braking. Electric Brake pre-fill ensures the filling of brake fluid at low pressure. Brake Disc wiping ensures if the brake pads are free from unwanted film of water. Thus tata nexon fulfills all the requirements of Mr. D.S. Pughazhyendhii and mailny falls between his budget.
