Best sedan for travelling in city

Most of the roads in the Indian cities are narrow and congested during peak hours. Safe parking of the vehicle is also difficult at times. So a small car is always preferable for city use. The traffic blocks may necessitate switching on and off the engine frequently. So a fuel efficient compact petrol sedan is ideal for travelling along the city roads while in India.

There are many compact sedans in the market like the Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire, Hyundai Xcent, Honda Amaze, Tata Indigo eCS and the Tata Zest. The diesel variants of Honda Amaze give the best mileages of 25.8 kmpl and the petrol variants of Hyundai Xcent give the best mileages of 19.2 kmpl among the different  variants of the above five models. But considering the running costs, maintenance costs and the availability of the service centres and spares the Maruti Swift Dzire can be considered as the best car for the city travel.
