Pros Cons of Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class

Pros

  • Big on driving dynamics
  • Smooth gearbox
  • Oozes style

Cons

  • Rear seat space is less
  • Ground clearance could have been better

Verdict

It is a beautiful car and it has all those features you expect from a Mercedes. The car is also not very pricy compared to its class and comfort. It looks graceful and feels safe and comfy while driving or just riding.

Pros Cons of Honda Civic

Pros

  • Sexy looks
  • Premium and spacious cabin
  • Powerful and peppy petrol engine

Cons

  • Low profile tyres are noisy
  • Steering at times feels cumbersome
  • Petrol-manual drivetrain would have done wonders

Verdict

And this is why the company has also taken cognizance of the feedback on the 8th gen car in India. The ground clearance for this India spec has been increased by 20 mm in front and 15 mm at the back. Having driven over a variety of roads, I can safely say that the ground clearance is not an issue whatsoever. I know you are now probably wondering where I stand on this car. It has some obvious flaws and some great strengths - but to me its also about its legacy and therefore the return of the Civic nameplate to India is just terrific. I welcome it warmly - and also now hope that Honda prices it sensibly. That won't just be great news for Civic fans, but also for the ailing midsize segment that badly needs a hit.
