Quite enjoyed this one guys! It was very different from most "informative" videos on YT, and there was sufficient humour to keep me entertained. "Well-weighted" video, overall! ;)
Is that really Honda, Hyundai and Maruti would always produce better cars for decades or is it the automobile medias always project them as the better cars. I have been noticing for years that how good the Ford or VW or Fiat cars are but still i can always see the cars from these three manufacturers will top the list. I have driven earlier version i20 and honestly i have never seen such a under powered petrol hatch with poor suspension lethargic steering but still these media ppl have claimed it as no 1 premium hatch. And the trend keep continuing again and again. I am really not sure!
Seems like you didn't get the motive of the tests conducted. They also mentioned at the beginning of the video that some of the cars are missing this test because either they were about to get an update or some aren't provided by their respective manufacturers, therefore no VW or a FIAT car.. Yes VW, Fiat like you aforementioned make great cars no doubt about i,t but they couldn't cope up with the after sales service that Maruti, Hyundai or Honda provides. Also they haven't got a good dealership network across the country. Moreover we had only one dealership of VW at ASSAM which too got closed down last August and people here are facing major setbacks coz the couldn't get their cars serviced by an authorised service centre. VW aren't answering customer's queries properly.
I say this is a good test, true, The Figo didnt top the list and its true ,Ford could have topped the list with simple features like parking sensors, a larger ORVM,better brakes and brighter headlights , but U saw how strong Ford was in dynamic tests, so it shows that this test is what Indians desire and thats why I too believe Jazz is easily the best hatch back in our country, But the point is if we factor the price to points ratio in this test, it will be either the Figo or the Baleno that will be topping the test
VW is the biggest car maker in the world (after Toyota). They don't need promotion by Indian media. Suzuki is a cycle manufacturer compared to them. I have a Baleno btw and its a superb car. Fiat is lethargic in India and they aren't doing great worldwide for a long time now. Honda is a delusional brand thinking they are white-skinned premium dope for us. Everything from them is low value. Honda cars aren't even that well built. (Well built doesn't mean soft interior plastics.) Bad unrefined diesel engines. Weak petrol engines. No innovation. No features. Fuck Honda. What's crappy is that Renault being a frontline car maker sells us poor quality shitty boxes to us. I am waiting for Peugeot.
Because the presenter already mentioned that they won't be using old cars. If that isn't the reason, he also mentioned that the car was simply not loaned to them.
Team OD, This is the best car comparo I have seen to date. It was funny, enjoyable throughout and really lifted the curtain of the most important yet totally forgotten things. Kudos !! Pl do the same for Sedans too. Eagerly waiting. Also do include Infotainment (Navigation experience, music quality, voice calling ease and quality) and air conditioning at both front and the rear. Congratulations once again ..
Watching this almost after 1 and half years. Glad that I have booked Hyundai elite i20 and waiting for its delivery which scored high points in many aspects of this comparison.
I've tested all these premium hatchbacks + VW polo(which seems surprisingly missing here). Undoubtedly the Honda Jazz really stands out from all these premium hatchbacks, infact it created all new benchmark for the premium hatch segment. Space, comfort, well built and real fun to drive...
These cars are waste of money both tata tiago and honda jazz . Honda jazz looks like a box moving.and tata is the poti brand and it also has no resale value.
Excellent test OVERDRIVE... I agree with most of these tests as its being done on practicality.. Unlike other sites which tests the obvious things. I myself use Honda Jazz i-DTec and agree with results.
This is really amazing level of detail and that too a practical one. Could have put in more cars like celerio, polo, grand i10, i hope you are doing this for sedans as well, esp entry sedans
Can you PLEASE add ground clearance test parameter in your future mega tests. I mean not the quoted one but load the cars fully and then crossing a huge speed hump.
Really an excellent video , good job 👏🏻 though , but all what I wonder is, in the overall score for the entry level hatchbacks 🚗, you guys have said alto800 the family car will be top on the list with 56.43 , but why was nano 2nd on the list with 65.29? Is that mistakenly spoken as alto 800 or is that mistakenly given 56.43 instead of giving that too nano? I was confused on this! But rest of 'em all the comparisons are outstanding , appreciated 😀👍🏻👏🏻👌🏻
So which is the safe car elite i20 or baleno because baleno comes with both ABS and EBD. and Elite i20 comes with only ABS so which is safe among these in instant emergency braking? And all around which is the best car from baleno and Elite i20? please do reply fast
In the headlight test, the light is supposed to be thrown on road and not to drivers coming in opposite lane right ? How is a reading test supposed to justify the driving in my opinion..Overall a nice video guys, would have been fun if you added an element of entertainment and air conditioning factor too in the tests.
this is the comparison i am looking for... thanks you should also come with the car maintenance cost and after sales service .. cost of spare parts etc this help us to buy the car
I dont think baleno will score very low in light test. As it has projector the light wont scatter, they are focused to the botton and did you guys try high beam orels baleno would be the top scorer.
A very nice test which is more important than reviews, Nice funny informative and pretty useful. The Lighting test could be slightly improvised. The rear Fog lamps throw and the arrangement which will help you park @ night better, The help of Following home illumination ( puddle lamps etc), the real corner illumination that helps avoid dividers and potholes in real driving situation ( efficiency of fogs and the reflection orientation which help to improve visibility of corner's too etc. Appreciable review by overdrive. The gearbox of each cars clutch action etc could also be added if it won't make the scoring system cluttered.
will you please suggest that cng option is available with swift or need to choice other car please inform which fuel is more efficient to procure it diesel, or petrol with cng
In headlights test only baleno have projector lamp so its not spread as normal headlights...so in this case baleno also get maximum score with Normal headlights model.... Friends its right or wrong
Not fair without polo n punto here which are class leading in handling and high speed stability ....and what about the dsg gear box here???would any other maker in market compete with that gear box...
Why doesn't anyone talk about the air conditioning. It's so important in India. Which car /hatch/ sedan /suv has the best AC. AC is one of the few things I see before buying a new car.
really u gave figo 1 for its parking. figo ain't that worse... I can assure you that figo has better handling dynamics, engine, saftey (6 air bags at last 😉) than jazz baleno i20....
I feel the headlamp test wasn't conducted accurately. I own a Baleno and it's projector headlights are by far the best I have seen. Projection angles are also adjustable which they clearly missed to use.
Loved the way you compared the cars. Need more comparisons like these please. Many more!!
Seeing this vedio after 5years of posting it and still feel great about your work and quality ....kudoos overdrive ⚡
best ever reviews i hav seen it was real fun.now this sets a bench mark for comparison in real world conditions which vehicle reacts to what obstacles
A really good video. The best comparison ever on Indian channel. Looking forward for more such practical non mechanical review videos
Just wht the doctor prescribed... totally worth the time spent watching this comparison... kudos to the team at Overdrive..
Why you guys didn't add Polo and punto in the list.. I have seen the punto when you guys testing the parking.
One of the most practical, relate-able & useful comparo, thanks to the overdrive team, keep it up.
The test parameters included here are always overlooked in the reviews. Kudos to Overdrive for such a wonderful test.
Awesome review, exactly what should a buyer look for. Good job and keep it up team.
This is best review ,explaining practical problems visible
.now one can take their decisions..thanks
Hence , we went for the Jazz and it hasn't disappointed once 😍
Quite enjoyed this one guys! It was very different from most "informative" videos on YT, and there was sufficient humour to keep me entertained. "Well-weighted" video, overall! ;)
Bring the series back loved it very practical 💜💜

Honda Jazz has earned all the respect it really neeeds..its great for every day simple things which u do..
Stop watching at 1:10 after realisation of 'India hot hatch' VW polo not included in this test.
Sunil KUMAR K.P I thought it was fiat Punto abarth
Same.
but Polo defintly fail in practical test
Hi
Because the presenter already mentioned that they won't be using old cars. If that isn't the reason, he also mentioned that the car was simply not loaned to them.
Team OD,
This is the best car comparo I have seen to date. It was funny, enjoyable throughout and really lifted the curtain of the most important yet totally forgotten things. Kudos !!
Pl do the same for Sedans too. Eagerly waiting.
Also do include Infotainment (Navigation experience, music quality, voice calling ease and quality) and air conditioning at both front and the rear.
Congratulations once again ..
loved this test. good job guys. this was something very different especially the light throw test..
this kind of videos, actually we need ...good comparision...good work
Hats off to you all.. what level efforts you all have taken is really appreciating..
ossm video i was thinking of buying jazz but a bit doubtfull but now i m gonna buy it.thanks to you all.
superb Mega test i would say, mainly about the braking and headlight reality !
Watching this almost after 1 and half years. Glad that I have booked Hyundai elite i20 and waiting for its delivery which scored high points in many aspects of this comparison.
You can also include a wiper test and a blind spot visibility test.
one of the best comparison....
A huge thumbs up to you guys.👍👍👍👍
I found out this video today's and it's actually practical to choose a car...nice video pls make it again with Baleno i20 and new amaze 2018...
I've tested all these premium hatchbacks + VW polo(which seems surprisingly missing here). Undoubtedly the Honda Jazz really stands out from all these premium hatchbacks, infact it created all new benchmark for the premium hatch segment. Space, comfort, well built and real fun to drive...
I am grateful that I have a Tata Tiago for me, and my dad has a Honda Jazz, two of the best cars in their class.
Christy P Benny cheers friend. I too have tiago XZ
These cars are waste of money both tata tiago and honda jazz . Honda jazz looks like a box moving.and tata is the poti brand and it also has no resale value.
Is maintenance cost is very high for Jazz?
why did you not included eon
Very detailed comparison. Loved it..!!! I wish Polo could be part of the comparison too. 👍🏻 Thnx Overdrive
OK a very important and challenging question to the uploader team.- Which is the safest in terms of body structure and rigidity here
obviously an eye opener.
Excellent test OVERDRIVE... I agree with most of these tests as its being done on practicality.. Unlike other sites which tests the obvious things. I myself use Honda Jazz i-DTec and agree with results.
This is really amazing level of detail and that too a practical one. Could have put in more cars like celerio, polo, grand i10, i hope you are doing this for sedans as well, esp entry sedans
Proud owner of The JaZzzzzz :)
Tnks OD for d Wonderful test 👌🏻👍🏻
Can you PLEASE add ground clearance test parameter in your future mega tests. I mean not the quoted one but load the cars fully and then crossing a huge speed hump.
Please add for current year as well , thanks
great comparison, entry level sedans will also be great to compare.
Intelligent testing .
India does not deserve jazz.
Thank You for good information. Appreciate the time and effort of the team.
Really an excellent video , good job 👏🏻 though , but all what I wonder is, in the overall score for the entry level hatchbacks 🚗, you guys have said alto800 the family car will be top on the list with 56.43 , but why was nano 2nd on the list with 65.29?

I was confused on this!
But rest of 'em all the comparisons are outstanding , appreciated 😀👍🏻👏🏻👌🏻
i agree,....nice review in terms of safety , ergonomics , ease and valuable
Not much mention of figo it seemed like u were avoiding it in all the test. exept when the dynamics was brought in.
Why polo not here ?
We need this comparison in 2020 as well please do it
I hace a datsun redigo since 8 months best car i found best than all other hatchbacks nice powerful ac to
i have kia picanto , but i would like to get Honda Jazz , nice video thank you guys
So which is the safe car elite i20 or baleno because baleno comes with both ABS and EBD. and Elite i20 comes with only ABS so which is safe among these in instant emergency braking? And all around which is the best car from baleno and Elite i20? please do reply fast
very keen comparison
kudos to over drive
In the headlight test, the light is supposed to be thrown on road and not to drivers coming in opposite lane right ? How is a reading test supposed to justify the driving in my opinion..Overall a nice video guys, would have been fun if you added an element of entertainment and air conditioning factor too in the tests.
What about Polo, brio, Swift and micra.
How effective is Ac of these car test is missing, which is must in northern part of india and rain wipers test.
this is the comparison i am looking for... thanks
you should also come with the car maintenance cost and after sales service .. cost of spare parts etc this help us to buy the car
hi why you didt include VW Polo and FIAT in this segement. can you please make another video with those . How is Polo?
I dont think baleno will score very low in light test. As it has projector the light wont scatter, they are focused to the botton and did you guys try high beam orels baleno would be the top scorer.
A very nice test which is more important than reviews, Nice funny informative and pretty useful.
The Lighting test could be slightly improvised. The rear Fog lamps throw and the arrangement which will help you park @ night better, The help of Following home illumination ( puddle lamps etc), the real corner illumination that helps avoid dividers and potholes in real driving situation ( efficiency of fogs and the reflection orientation which help to improve visibility of corner's too etc.
Appreciable review by overdrive.
The gearbox of each cars clutch action etc could also be added if it won't make the scoring system cluttered.
Is it just me or did somewhere in between it went from a test to a competition between "teams"?
Kindly compare compact sedans like this
Bro plz eon and grandi10 in this comparison and then think which is the best hatchback and the best entry level hatchback
Good comparision. Add Punti in it. It wil score bood
did they test the dynamics ? no or yes ? which ine drove better ?
will you please suggest that cng option is available with swift or need to choice other car
please inform which fuel is more efficient to procure it diesel, or petrol with cng
well a very good comparison but where's the polo
In headlights test only baleno have projector lamp so its not spread as normal headlights...so in this case baleno also get maximum score with Normal headlights model.... Friends its right or wrong
Not fair without polo n punto here which are class leading in handling and high speed stability ....and what about the dsg gear box here???would any other maker in market compete with that gear box...
Why you guys have not added WagonR?
U can also try for sedan category
i20 me bhi projector headlamp aata hai aap kon si model se test kare ho
when the figo scored more than tiago, then how could you say it outclassed figo...!!
Why doesn't anyone talk about the air conditioning. It's so important in India. Which car /hatch/ sedan /suv has the best AC. AC is one of the few things I see before buying a new car.
How can u compare little nano with jazz or baleno for ease of parking....
please do the same for sub 4m sedans and the regular ones like ciaz, honda city etc, great video od 👍
i must say really good work done by you guys keep up the good work, And is braking really disappointing on ford figo
Sir my budget is 8 lakh please recommend me a best petrol car. Mostly looking for hatchback.
do a compare between sedans starting from compact to premium sedans like elantra corolla or atleast mid size sedans verna,vento
Plz make similar kind of tests for suvs
why they are not showing the review of baleno
Awesome video.
Why not include Swift??
go for Toyota liva...best hatchback car...look of the car is not much impressive...but overall it's the best engineering and safety..
why no polo the premium, kuv 100 the best one to compare for space
Hi, could you guys do a similar test for the sub 4 m sedans as well?
Missed the Polo
Sir I love this video.
Can you plz make new videos same as above with SUV and Sedan.
That's good benefits for us.
Nice Detail Video
very nice video i really enjoyed the video while watching it
Why was TATA Nano not included.?
really u gave figo 1 for its parking. figo ain't that worse... I can assure you that figo has better handling dynamics, engine, saftey (6 air bags at last 😉) than jazz baleno i20....
sir, We need this test in current hacth back like new wagon R, New Santro, Celerio
Great job
You guys are awesome !
please do such a test with bikes also. PLEASE
Wres d mileage test? India wants to know
great video
Nice Job Guys😊👌👍
Great comparo
Wow the ranking list on this video was totally messy and confusing. 5, 3, 9, 2? why not organize it lower to higher 2, 3, 5, 9 or vice versa?
What about Grand i10 and polo?
grande punto?
I feel the headlamp test wasn't conducted accurately. I own a Baleno and it's projector headlights are by far the best I have seen. Projection angles are also adjustable which they clearly missed to use.
Made a wise decision bought tata tiago. #madeinindia
HARI KRISHNA I too have a Tiago
Hey, would you recommend Tata Tiago to me?
Is that a good car..? How abt it's service..? Ac performance..? Revotron godd?
