Benchmarking
- The initial thing to be considered is the Seating Capacity of the car, As the number of family members is five. The Seating Capacity of the car should be at least five.
- The car is going to be used for both commuting as well as long drives, So the mileage and the range of the car should be considered high.
- As Banglore is a crowded city, the car which is too big shouldn't be considered
- For the price range of 8 to 10 lakhs, Hatchbacks, Sedan, Cross overs will be available for this budget.

From the above comparison in order of considerations, Datsun Go Plus is a benchmarking car, As it is the only car in the comparison which has a CVT gearbox as it will be very helpful while riding in a crowded city and also it also has a range of nearly 650 kilometres, which is more than 500 kilometres which is the distance of the native place from his home. This car has the second biggest boot space in the comparison as it would be helpful to keep the luggage while travelling long distances. At last, it is a big car from inside as Mr.D.S. Pughazhyendhii likes big cars.
