Hello Team, I am looking to upgrade my car and currently own a 2017 Volkswagen Ameo Highline. I have been a Volkswagen fan since then, and my budget is around Rs 35 lakh. The two options I am considering are the Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line and the Jeep Compass Model S. My preference is leaning towards the Volkswagen, but I would appreciate your suggestions if there are any better alternatives in this budget. Thanks in advance!
