Skoda Fabia 81TSI Wagon

$21,440 Skoda’s mid-spec Fabia Wagon is a bit pricier than the Suzuki, but it’s money well spent. It offers more space inside, a classier cabin and a torquier 1.2-litre turbo four that delivers similar economy.

Mazda CX-3 Neo

$19,990 The base manual CX-3 is Mazda’s nearest Ignis competitor price-wise. It will cost you an extra two grand for the auto, but the CX-3 is a polished dynamic package and among the most convincing small-suv offerings, even at the entry level.
