Every time a new car or a facelift is launched, we try to make it a point to compare it to its rivals. While a review is good enough to tell you just how good the car is in its own right it’s when we compare it to its rivals that we actually see how it stands in the segment. This year our comparisons have varied from popular contenders such as the Tata Tiago, Maruti Baleno and Honda City to luxury offerings such as the Mercedes GLS, Audi Q7 and the new Jaguar XF and Volvo S90.
Here is a look at our ten most popular comparisons.
Maruti Baleno vs. Honda Jazz vs. Hyundai i20
The Baleno has been a big success for Maruti when it was launched last year and is the automaker’s bestselling model through its premium Nexa channels. But sitting in the premium SUV segment, the Baleno has strong contenders to face off against, the Honda Jazz and the Hyundai i20. So just how do these three models stack up against each other? Check out our full comparison.
Ford Endeavour vs. Chevrolet Trailblazer vs. Mitsubishi Pajero Sport vs. Toyota Fortuner
Environmentalists may not think highly of big, heavy-duty and powerful SUVs but there are more than a few reasons such models strike a chord with Indian buyers. These SUVs’ sheer size equals huge street cred, their hardy body-on-frame construction means they are built to take a beating, and their large diesel engines give them the go to match the show; the Ford Endeavour offers all of this. So just how does it stack up against its rivals? Click here to find out.
It must be noted that at the time Toyota was yet to launch the new Fortuner, therefore the Endeavour was pitted against the older model. If you are interested in the new 2016 Fortuner, read our comparison here.
Maruti Vitara Brezza vs. Ford EcoSport
Since its debut at the Auto Expo earlier the year and subsequent launch, the Brezza has taken the compact SUV segment by storm. So just how good is Maruti’s first attempt at the compact SUV segment? We pit it against the Ford EcoSport to find out. Read our comparison here.
Tata Tiago vs. Maruti Celerio diesel
Tata looked to thoroughly reinvent itself with the launch of the Tiago, its first all-new model since the launch of the Aria. The automaker sent shockwaves in the industry at the time of launch with the Tiago being positioned to undercut all its rivals by a large margin in terms of pricing. The car also marked the launch of a new 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol and 1.05-litre three-cylinder diesel engines. For this comparison we brought together the diesel Tiago with its chief rival, the Maruti Celerio diesel to see how they compare.
