  • The executive sedan segment was once on the brink of extinction but it's sprung back to life with the introduction of some new and some updated models. The latest is the facelifted Hyundai Elantra which goes up against the all new Honda Civic and the Skoda Octavia. Which is best? Nikhil Bhatia tells you.

      Yes this irony was good till 2019 but current gen 2020 doesn't have feel in design like next gen verna of 2017 -19. It looks more artificial in design than mature now

    Honda civic diesel is the best complete package , the most reliable , most fuel efficient(i got 24kmpl) , most agile, lowest maintenance (japanese brand) , very very stable , best rear seat comfort , less noise engine than octavia diesel , great aerodynamic design , on papers it is low power but on highway it is a beast , enough power , we buy cars for driving not for racing , and many many reasons to go for HONDA Civic diesel , cockpit design , darker interiors than other two,MANUAL TRANSMISSION IS THE BEST FOR LONG HIGHWAY DRIVE , keeps you engaged, Happy Highway Cruising

    Elantra has always been the most value for money sedan in it's class comparative ly.
    But Octavia is for enthausiasts. It's 1.8tsi is a gem
    But worst thing is that upcoming new gen Octavia will not meet bs6 means it's 1.8tsi will be discontinued ☹️
    Civic is more dynamic than the Octavia and Elantra
    But still some cost cuttings are there which isn't acceptable for a car of this price
    Overall if you want a sedan at 22lakhs Elantra is the only one u should go with
    If money doesn't matter then Octavia is the one

    The Octavia is an awesome car, until you own it and regret getting one. I mean, I wonder how any sane person would spend 25L on a car knowing very will that AS&S is going to be horrendous. Only an enthusiast who is willing to spend considerable amount of time and money would get one. The Civic and Elantra makes more practical sense.
    And when Honda brings their Turbo Civic and Hyundai brings their Turbo with DCT, Octy's sale would slump even further. Considering the fact that the new gen Creta comes with a 1.4 Turbo Petrol and DCT, I won't be surprised if the next gen Elantra comes with a bigger Turbo Petrol and DCT.
