CLEARING THE AIR

The last week of December is that time of the year when you finally get to escape from your claustrophobic cubicles and smog-choked cities to the nearest mountains or beaches. Fresh air, clear blue skies, pristine beaches, lush green mountains, toasty orange sunsets, and what have you. Nothing brings joy and peace to the mind like sitting in the lap of nature, right? If you are a car enthusiast, adding a set of wheels to the mix makes the world look even prettier towards the end of the year.

So, before bidding adieu to 2022, we decided to drive out of Delhi and head to the serene hills of Uttarakhand to get our usual December fix. But since this is a car mag, and we're expected to do serious consumer advice from time to time, we decided to turn this leisure road trip into a road test and pitched four of the best-selling SUVs on the market - the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Volkswagen Taigun, Kia Seltos, and MG ZS EV - against each other. Why these four? The answer is right in front of you.
