➢ Sedan vs SUV/CSUVs
→ The choice between sedans and SUVs/CSUVs in India depends on road
conditions, usage, and preferences. SUVs/CSUVs are better for India’s diverse
terrains with their high ground clearance, better visibility, and spacious
interiors, making them ideal for rough roads, rural areas, and family trips.
However, they are less fuel-efficient, costlier to maintain, and less stable at
high speeds compared to sedans. Sedans excel on smooth urban roads and
highways, offering better fuel efficiency, driving dynamics, and affordability,
but their low ground clearance can be a disadvantage on bad roads. While
SUVs are preferred for road presence and practicality, sedans are ideal for city
commutes and those who value comfort and efficiency. Compact SUVs,
blending SUV ruggedness with sedan-like efficiency, are increasingly popular
as a balanced choice.

How Sunroof Affect your Car?
A sunroof enhances a car's aesthetic appeal, brings in natural light, improves
ventilation, and can increase resale value. However, it adds weight, reduces
headroom, and may lead to potential issues like leaks, higher cabin heat, and
costly maintenance. In terms of safety, a sunroof can slightly affect the car's
structural integrity, increase the risk of shattered glass in accidents, and pose
ejection risks during rollovers if left open. While modern cars compensate for
these drawbacks with advanced designs, choosing a sunroof depends on your
climate, usage, and priorities, balancing style and practicality against potential
downsides.
