Best hatchback car Tata Altroz

This car is best hatchback of tata motors I love this car from his features, interior look, exterior look. This car is so cool car and it is obtained 5 star rating in global ncap and I love safe car.

Polo is a great car

The Polo is a great buy if you won’t be using the rear seats often, and need nothing but a well-built car to tackle the daily grind Loaded with features such as automatic AC, touchscreen infotainment, auto-dimming mirror etc. Available with a variety of engine-transmission options. Build quality inside out is best-in-class. Doors close with a thunk, no trace of scratchy plastics in the interior. Clean, no-frills design looks classy and understated.
