COMPARISION :
- Considering the fact that he travels everyday to office by car he needs a decent city mileage. Among the cars we have chosen Maruti vitara Breza stands on the top.
- When he travels long distance to his native once in a month he might need good boot space to carry his luggages. Hyundai Creta has a very good boot space comparitively. And also while traveling long distance he needs good power and pick up in the car. So we need a quite big engine displacement. Except for Nexon and SUV300 other cars have similar engine CC. So Creta will be a good pick in this segment also.
- Since he is fond of big cars, Ertiga is a 7 seater with good city mileage. But when it comes to boot space it stands last. But the competitive pricing makes it a good option to consider which fits very well in his budget.
- Considering the features Hyundai Creata has a lot of additional features like Rear AC ducts, follow me home headlamps, adjustable driver seat and steering. So comparitively Creta stands best among the others.
CONCLUSION :
Based on the various parameters we considered for picking a best car under the 10 lakhs segment. Hyundai Creata comes out topping the table as it has decent mileage and also a sporty compact SUV which has ample space just like the one Mr.Pughazhendhi wanted it to be. Even though the On road pricing may be a bit over 10 lakhs but it fulfills the requirement of our benchmarking.
