Hyundai Exter

The new Exter is now one of the best buys in its class due to its feature list plus the aggressive pricing along with having more safety features.

Maruti Suzuki Fronx

The Fronx has impressed us with its styling and value quotient while the coupe-like roofline is something quite refreshing in terms of the design. The headlamp design and front has a resemblance to the bigger Grand Vitara but the slanting roofline is what makes this car unique in design.

Tata Punch

The Punch has always been a big seller in this segment owing to its toughness plus the design. Recently Tata Motors added new features to the Punch with the addition of an electric sunroof with voice assist plus auto headlamps and more. If we talk about the dimensions of the Punch, it has a length of 3827 mm along with a width of 1742 mm plus it has a ground clearance of 187 mm. The design is radical with the Harrier like design front end along with interesting details. It is also rugged and handles our roads quite well in a compact package. Prices start at Rs 6 lakh.
