Observations
Mahindra has the most number of offerings when looking at the sound editions while Hyundai has the widest reach in terms of variant-to-variant competition. Surprisingly, the Honda City does not feature in this race but there is the fully loaded Honda Elevate ZX CVT going up against the Taigun Sound Edition MT.
