Verdict — Honda City
Best feature-for-money sedan under 55 lakh. If interior quality and features matter more than brand prestige, City beats Corolla hands down.
Verdict — Toyota Corolla
Pakistan's best investment if you plan to keep or sell the car. No car holds value like Corolla. If you just want specs-per-rupee, look elsewhere.
