Hi Ashish,

The ride and handling of Fabia is much better than Punto. Iam using Fabia and i took the TD for Punto -- huge difference for sure without any exaggeration.  Punto wins the battle in the engine performance only. In Interiors also Fabia is miles ahead.

I would be cpmpletely against I20 as I feel i10 serve better with that engine and around 235 kerb less. Just dont pay for the cosmetics is my suggestion.

Read somewhere that I20 diesel is a 6 month wait...oops "no". Hyundai is taking bookings and is expected mid Sep.

Again - i20 Diesel is NOT 1.5....its 1.4 with 75ps.

I would consider GP to be the winner in the cars that were discussed in this thread.

Hi Uneet, I already said Fabia is much better in terms of interiors. But i differ as far as ride & handling is concerned.

The i20 CRDi (Diesel) launch is TODAY.

The engine is a 1.4 developing 90ps.  Every other diesel hatch can bow down.




Keep those wheels turning!

Fabia's ride and handling is history now. Punto beats it by a good margin. Presently, there is no match for Punto's ride and handling.

For a comprehensive review of Punto, check out the following link:

I know the launch is today...Booking started like a couple weeks ago however they are not letting test drives. its just a display...same case like when linea launched. I beleive one can only expect this car by next month. Test drive maystart earlier.

Ever tried Getz Crdi with some good foot of Yoko's or Michelin (broader than 185 ) comes lesser the cost and butter smooth. Ride and handling is amazing with the harder suspension.All you power lovers...pick this beast for 50 k less. Productions already stopped and just a few cars left. History or Yamaha RX100 and Baleno is repeating with this car going 50 k lesser than the prices in April. 5.88 OTR Bangalore vs 6.45 OTR in April. I'm thinking of picking up one more of it
