Honda BR-V vs Hyundai Creta - comparison video.

 Renuka Kripalani compares Honda BR-V CVT with hot selling Hyundai Creta automatic. The exterior styling, interiors, build quality and ride quality of both the compact SUV's is compared in this short video, to give you a basic idea where both cars stand against each other in the very popular compact SUV segment.

Since both Honda and Hyundai have a good presence in the Indian auto market and are known for their good quality cars, the comparison is limited to these two products themselves. Honda is a huge name internationally but in India Hyundai is the second biggest auto maker and leads Honda by a big margin.

As I have said in the past Hyundai Creta has commanding  SUV presence on the road, and same presence is carried forward in the pictures and videos this is featured in. Honda BR-V on the other hand looks more like a MUV than a compact SUV (Honda doesn't call it a compact SUV though),  with its seven seater configuration and its narrow and streched Mobilio like looks it does look like a peoples carrier than a premium C-SUV.

In this video Honda BR-V comes out as a better value option with its lower price and more practical choice  with its two extra seats.

As far as I am concerned I will choose Hyundai Creta anyday for its great SUV looks, premium build quality, long equipment list, and will choose Honda BR-V only if I am stricly looking for a  seven seater family car.

Hyundai Tuscon coming soon - review video.

Breaking News - after the astounding success Creta, Hyundai India is ready with its new offering in the SUV space - Tuscon, the big brother of super hit Creta.

SUV sales in India are going northwards since last few years, and all manufacturers have  have been trying to get a slice of this growing auto segment. 

The two biggest players in the Indian auto market Maruti Suzuki  and Hyundai took their time in joining the party, and it was only in end of 2015 that Hyundai launched its compact SUV Creta, which has been a runaway success since than along with Maruti Vitara Brezza.

After tasting success with Creta Hyundai is upping its game with Tuscon, and targeting a segment above Creta buyers, who want a bigger and more luxurious SUV.

As far as the looks goes Tuscon's design looks similar to Creta, but it being a larger SUV of the two has more commanding road presence.

As a Tuscon buyer you can also look forward to a more spacious cabins with good amount of legroom and reclining seats for rear passengers.

The well equipped  interiors of Tuscon, though upmarket and high quality, do not seem to be in tune with its more stylish exteriors, and may not be liked by customers looking for something more eye catching.

As always Hormazd and Auto Car India does a good job in giving us a first look at the soon to be launched Hyundai Tuscon in this first drive review video.

Tata Tiago vs Renault Kwid - comparison video.

Just found this good comparison video between Tata Tiago and hot selling Renault Kwid.

Tata Tiago has been much appreciated for its elegant design and excellent build quality with some class leading features.

Renault Kwid, as we all know, became a runaway success for Renault India mainly due to its SUV like styling, never seen feature like a touch screen entertainment system, which was never seen in an entry level hatch before in India.

Both Tiago and Kwid  offer excellent value proposition, and in this video the better build quality of Tiago  excellent interiors, and better on road performance makes the hatch a clear winner. 

While the eye catching styling of Renault Kwid makes it the darling of the entry level car buyers, the sever cost cutting. to keep the cost of production low. is visible every where...from thinner sheet metal... to hard plastics used in the interior.

If you are in the market for a entry level hatch this video may be a good starting point for a car which suits your needs and budget.
