I want to know which is better ecosport or s cross
Hi Abdur,
Well, both the cars belong to a completely different segment. Ford Ecosport is sitting in the subcompact SUV segment and Maruti Suzuki S-Cross belongs to a crossover segment, hence there is no straight comparison. But we want to point out that it is the Ecosport that is way smaller in dimensions. This means S-Cross will offer more room on the inside. On the other hand, Ecosport with its 1.5-Litre 3-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine has more power on tap. But S-Cross is not at all underpowered. So, if it is space, comfort and reliability that you are after, S-Cross is a better buy. But if you like is driving, Ecosport is a better option. Hope it helps! 🙂
I want to know is it worth modifying the Grand i10 nios(Asta) .. As I want a eye catchy car. If yes what modifications should I found…
You can opt-in for LED headlamps, a projector if you have the budget, if your vehicle is white then a black roof maybe? A set of new rims, painted brake pads, discs, and a lot more. It totally depends on your budget and creativity.
