I want to replace my Ciaz diesel with a hybrid vehicle - which is more comfortable, Honda City or Maruti Grand Vitara? I drive around 25,000km annually, hence seat comfort and good suspension are very important to me.

Karan Agarwal, Pune

Autocar India says: The Honda City's hybrid powertrain is exceptionally smooth and refined, quick and reasonably fuel efficient too. Its front seats are extremely comfortable and its boot is larger than the Vitara's. It is not as well equipped as the Vitara; it lacks kit like ventilated front seats, 360-degree camera, etc. Ride quality is good and driving manners are pretty neat too. The City is a car you can hardly go wrong with, and if you prefer its low-slung seating position, then go ahead with the City Hybrid.
