I bought city 2017 just 2 months ago. Its and VX CVT. it was initially a lot of confusion between compact SUV and a mid size sedan. I test driven City, Rapid, Hexa, Creta. Finally after a long thought I have decided to buy a sedan. So the choice was between Rapid and City. I like both these wonders. Honestly I have Chosen City becoz of its look, new front LED headlights, a Sun roof and the modern interior( dashboard).
Recently we drove to Pauri in uttarakhan?. The ride was smooth except for the off-roading due to bad road near Bijnor. I think Rapid would do better here. City's cvt Automatic is a real boon in traffic and specially in hills. Just keep driving without bothering about frequent change of gears. Less tiring! I got the mileage of about 15km/l. This may be due to its being a new vehicle. Hope it will rise in future. City is very spacious and comfortable car with a feel of premium. That's the another reason to buy it.
