From The Experts

Things we like

In all these years, the Honda City has been a benchmark when it comes to space on the inside. The current generation Honda City still manages to outclass all of its rivals when it comes to outright space and comfort on the inside, with a clear focus on the comfort of the occupants at the rear. The legroom and under-thigh support of the Honda City’s rear seat still manages to be in a league of cars from one segment above.

The Honda City’s 1.5-litre petrol engine, despite being a decade old now, still has the sweetness and refinement which one would expect from an entry-level sedan. Not only this, the performance levels too is quite decent, and while it misses out the on the zing of the first-generation version, the engine still feels zesty enough to bring out the fun side of yours.

With features like electric sunroof, full LED headlamps, leather upholstery, curtain airbags, and push-button start-stop system, the Honda City has got all the features at right places to make you feel that you have brought a premium car at its price.

As far as looks and personality goes, the Mazda 2 is one of the most youthful looking sedans in its segment. The curvaceous exterior design of the Mazda 2, with the dramatic looking front grille and headlamps and tail lamps, make it look very trendy and upmarket compared to other cars in the same price bracket, which definitely appeals to the younger set of crowd more.

Despite being the most affordable car from Mazda, the Mazda 2 features impeccable and premium build quality and premium fit and finish, which definitely makes one feel that he is inside a car from one segment above. In addition to it, the presence of premium features gives the Mazda 2 a feel-good factor generally compromised in entry-level sedans.

Things we don't like

While the arrow shot design still manages to impress everyone with its aerodynamic profile, the fact that this very design is in existence for almost a decade now makes it look a bit dated. The features like LED headlamps and machined alloy wheels do try to hide its age, but it still needs a refresh now, considering the fact that all of its competitors have been updated quite comprehensively in recent times.

While the interior feels feature-rich and premium, the overall layout of the dashboard, as well as instrument console too, needs an upgrade. Some of the switches and plastics feel a bit low in quality, which do not go well with the overall premium theme of the car.

Being an entry-level sedan, the Mazda 2 boasts of compact dimensions, which have eaten up space on the inside. Due to the curvaceous design, the headroom at the rear is at a premium, while at the same time, the legroom at the rear too is nothing much to be praised at its best.

Though the Mazda 2 has a premium fit and finish on the inside and looks vibrant on the outside, however, on the inside, things are not as eye-catching as they should have been. Mazda has made the overall interior cabin look very simple, with the layout focusing on minimalism.
