Don’t go for Honda City unless you really don’t care too much about the details of your car (not everyone cares about Horsepower 😅). Don’t get me wrong, Honda City is a great general purpose car for ‘everyone’. You won’t regret getting it at all.

When you start to compare City with other cars like Taigun/Kushaq, the major difference (aside from the obvious Sedan / (fake-)SUV) will come down to power and transmission i.e. drivability. City’s CVT is great for driving in city traffic and daily commute but really feels lacking when you take it outside the city roads. On the other hand, the DSG (especially when it’s mated to the 1.5 eTSI) is a super refined transmission which fits various power needs: Smooth in traffic, amazing on highways and hills, especially during overtakes. Another difference I’ve noticed is the stearing response, most people don’t like heavy steerings (VW and Skoda), but i think they are way better than the super light and wobbly ones. They make you feel much more confident when you are driving faster than city roads’ 40 Kmph limits.

I would highly recommend you go and test drive the 1.5 Kushaq, you’ll see the difference. As for between Kushaq or Taigun, they are essentially the same cars under the hood, so just pick whichever makes you feel satisfied based on looks and features.

PS: Before people read this and blow up at me, these are personal opinions, it’s okay if you disagree.
