The biggest rivals of the all-new Etios Liva petrol

NEW MARUTI SWIFT

The new Swift is just around the corner. Expected some time in August-September, the new Swift will be powered by a 1.2-litre, variable-valvetrain equipped K-Series motor with approximately 90 bhp.

Larger on the inside and outside, equipped with more features and better built, the largest-selling B-segment hatch in the country is bound to stir up the car market.

Petrol: 1.2-litre, 90 bhp, Rs 4.6-5.9 lakh (estimated)

Where the Liva scores: Space, ride comfort, efficiency

Where the Liva loses: Performance, handling proficiency, motor refinement, could do with more features
