Many peaceful nights have been ruined by our incessant bickering about how cars are better than bikes or vice versa. It gets so bad that we annually dedicate an entire issue to this topic, hoping to come to a conclusion. Happily, so far it hasn’t worked. In this particular case, we decided to see which of these vehicles can get you the most pleasure on a budget — the Hyundai Grand i10 Nios Turbo or the TVS Apache RR 310. We tried comparing spec sheets like trump cards, but that didn’t get us very far, so, of course, we did the only reasonable thing we could — find a twisty road and see which one bests the other.
Janak Sorap: To be honest, I don’t know why we’re doing this. You don’t even stand a chance because bikes are better than cars. The first thing that hits you when you ride motorcycles is the feeling of liberation. It doesn’t matter where you are or what you are doing because the moment you thumb the starter, you leave all your concerns behind. Fun starts right there. Nothing comes close to that feeling on two wheels. Certainly not four wheels.
Aditya Upadhyaula: Sure, liberation and freedom are great, but what do you do when you have to go back to your regular life after all that fun? I’ll admit all but the most hardcore cars start with a compromise, but in my mind there’s nothing wrong with that. In that sense, the Grand i10 Nios Turbo is a car that strikes a very fine balance between being a family car and a hooligan. I doubt your bike can beat it in this department.
