WHICH CAR?

BSM Desk Mumbai
Both the Fiesta and the Dzire are capable three-box cars, but if one goes by purity of form and overall build quality, it is the Ford that will win the battle. It has got better ride quality than the Suzuki and that is important on our roads. Do not expect the Fiesta petrol to return anything better than 10-11 kpl in traffic though.  List and shortlist  I want your opinion on which car to buy. My requirements are as follows:
1. Safety
2. Should seat three persons comfortably at the rear
3. Ease of driving
4. Good fuel efficiency
5. Low maintenance costs
6. Airconditioning and power steering
7. Budget around Rs 4.5 lakh (on-road)
Based on these requirements, I have shortlisted the Tata Indigo CS petrol, Hyundai Getz Prime and the Chevrolet U-VA. Can you please let me know which one is good for me?

The Getz Prime is all the car you need if you are looking at a petrol powered car. It is refined, spacious, economical to run and can be bought with ABS as well. The Indigo CS gives you the big car feel but is not as sophisticated as the Getz when it comes to looks and build quality. The Chevrolet U-VA is a fantastic value-for-money proposition
