I completely agree with you!
With the new City touching astronomical prices here in Bangalore, a hatchback based on the new City with sub INR 15L OTR would be very much welcome I suppose! No, Honda does not need to adhere to the <4m rule with this one, just has to be smart with the prices. It will definitely be a good alternative to the i20 and the whole lot of CSUVs. The main USP would be the size and space that it will offer over the others.
As for me, the new i20 is a bit of a love-hate kind of feeling at the moment, not entirely convinced by the proposition. And, barring the Ecosport (which has it's own set of flaws) I will not be swaying to the CSUV bandwagon any time soon. I prefer a proper hatchback or a sedan and the City hatchback is a definite winner on paper. |
