Pros Cons of Renault Kwid

Pros

  • Outstanding SUV-inspired exterior design.
  • Best-in-class ground clearance of 184mm.
  • Feature-rich interior with a functional eight-inch screen.
  • Standard ESP and TPMS across variants.

Cons

  • Engine can feel noisy at high rpms.
  • Rear seat width is tight for three adults.
  • The AMT can be slow to react during quick overtakes.

Verdict

The Renault Kwid is a car that punches above its weight. After​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ extensive road testing by Seshan Vijayraghvan and car&bike team, it still holds the top position for anyone who is in the market for their first ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌car. It bridges the gap between a basic hatchback and a modern SUV with grace. If you want a car that is easy on the pocket but doesn't feel like a compromise, the Kwid should be at the top of your list.

Best as

  • A first-time buyer’s city companion.
  • An urban pothole warrior.
  • A budget-conscious tech seeker.

Not Ideal as

  • A high-speed highway cruiser.
  • A primary car for five adults.
  • A performance-oriented automatic.


 

Pros Cons of Mercedes-Benz C-Class

Pros

  • Be it lazy commutes or aggressive power output, this luxury sedan satisfies all requirements.
  • The steering gives you precise, immediate feedback, and makes sudden direction changes engaging.
  • Mercedes’ "Digital Light" headlight technology adapts to weather, oncoming traffic, and road conditions.
  • This premium cabin gets a flat-bottom steering, brushed metal accents, and a massive touchscreen.
  • New USB package features six 100W fast-charging Type-C ports scattered across the interior.

Cons

  • Riding on 18-inch AMG alloy wheels means you will feel sharp bumps, road creases, and potholes.
  • In an otherwise well-insulated luxury cabin, the ventilated seat’s whirring noise gets annoying.
  • The 48V mild-hybrid tech does a great job of making stop-and-go driving progressive and smooth. 
  • The C-Class sits low to the ground which means getting in and out requires some bending.
  • The nine-speed gearbox can sometimes perform a jerky downshift when you're braking hard.

Verdict

The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is a reminder of what a luxury sedan ought to be. The C300 especially, is a highly emotional, high-revving petrol motor that Mercedes has crafted to be an absolute hoot to drive. It is a car that looks incredibly handsome on the outside, pampers you with cutting-edge tech on the inside, and puts a massive grin on your face the second you find an open stretch of tarmac.

Bilal Firfiray said in his review:

“If you are looking for a premium luxury sedan which is involving to drive, brings a smile to your face every time you grab the wheel, and feels like a million bucks, there are very few options out there.”

If you are an owner who loves to grab the steering wheel yourself, craves instant mechanical grip, and wants a car that feels like a multi-million-dollar baby S-Class from the driver's seat, the C300 is hands-down the one to have.
