Compare Cars Dimension, Features & Specs Side By Side

Put any new cars head to head and see exactly how they differ. DynoBHP lets you compare cars side by side on price, size, dimensions, mileage, features and full specifications, so you can decide with real numbers instead of guesswork.

Add cars to compare

Pick a brand, model and variant, and compare 2, 3 or up to 4 cars at once. See their size, dimensions, features and price side by side, with the interior and exterior kit laid out row by row. It works the same for 7 seater cars, compact SUVs and electric cars.

How to compare cars the smart way

A good comparison goes past the price tag. When you line cars up side by side, these are the things that actually decide which one fits your life.

Size and dimensions

Length, width and wheelbase tell you how the car will feel in traffic and how much room sits inside. Our size comparison draws these to scale, and the boot figure shows how much luggage each one swallows on a trip.

Engine, mileage and running cost

Compare power for how the car drives, and the ARAI mileage for what it costs to run. A petrol, diesel, CNG or electric choice changes your monthly fuel bill far more than the sticker price does.

Features and safety

Our feature rows show exactly which car gives you the sunroof, the bigger touchscreen, ventilated seats, more airbags or a 360 camera, and from which variant. Turn on only differences to cut straight to what sets them apart.

Price and value

We show the ex-showroom price and an estimated monthly EMI for each car, so two cars that look close on paper can read very differently once you see the real on-road maths.

Understanding car size and dimensions

Every car lists a set of measurements, and each one changes how the car feels to live with. Here is what they mean in plain words, so the size chart in the comparison actually tells you something.

Car dimensions diagram: length, wheelbase and heightA labelled side view of a car showing where its length is measured from the front bumper to the rear, its wheelbase between the front and rear wheels, and its height from the roof to the ground.LengthWheelbaseHeightCar width diagramA labelled front view of a car showing where its width is measured, across the widest part of the body.Width
Where each measurement is taken. The comparison tool above shows every car's exact figures, drawn to scale.

Length is how long the car is from nose to tail. A longer car usually has more cabin space and a bigger boot, but it is harder to park in tight city spots. A shorter car slips through traffic and parks easily.

Width is how wide the car is across its body. More width means more shoulder room inside, so three people in the back sit more comfortably. Very wide cars can feel bulky in narrow lanes.

Height is how tall the car stands. A taller car lets you sit high and step in and out with ease, which many Indian buyers love. It feels airy inside, though it can lean a little more on fast turns.

Wheelbase is the gap between the front and rear wheels. This is the number that really sets rear seat legroom. A longer wheelbase gives back seat passengers more room to stretch, and a steadier ride on the highway.

Ground clearance is the gap between the bottom of the car and the road. More of it helps you clear tall speed breakers, broken patches and water without scraping. On rough roads, many buyers look for around 180 to 200 mm.

Boot space is how much luggage fits in the back, measured in litres. A bigger boot swallows more bags on a family trip. For daily city use, even a small boot is usually enough.

Petrol, diesel, CNG, hybrid or electric: which to compare

The fuel a car runs on changes your monthly bill more than almost anything else. Here is each option in plain words, and who it suits best, so you compare the right ones for how you drive.

Running cost per kilometre, roughly compared

Approximate running cost per kilometre by fuel typeA bar chart of the rough running cost per kilometre for each fuel. Electric is the lowest at about one and a half rupees, then CNG about three rupees, strong hybrid about four rupees, diesel about five rupees, and petrol the highest at about six and a half rupees.Electric₹1.5CNG₹3Strong hybrid₹4Diesel₹5Petrol₹6.5
Rough figures to show the gap, not exact numbers. Your real cost depends on the car, your city's fuel and power rates, and how you drive.

Petrol is the default choice for most buyers. Petrol cars cost the least to buy, run quietly and can be serviced anywhere. They fit you best if you drive modest distances, mostly around the city.

Diesel engines cost more up front but return better mileage and pull strongly on the highway. They make sense only if you drive a lot each month over long distances. For short city runs, a diesel rarely earns back its higher price.

CNG runs on compressed natural gas, which costs far less per kilometre than petrol. A factory fitted CNG car is the cheapest to run day to day. The catch is that the gas tank takes up boot space, and power drops a little.

Strong hybrid cars team a petrol engine with a small battery and motor, and switch between them on their own. There is nothing to plug in, and the mileage in city traffic is very high. You do pay more to buy one.

Electric cars have no engine and use no fuel. You charge a battery and drive, and the cost per kilometre is the lowest of all. They suit buyers who can charge at home and mostly drive within a city.

Car terms explained in plain words

A spec sheet is full of terms that are easy to skip. Here are the ones worth knowing before you compare, in simple language.

Ex-showroom price is the car's base price before anything is added. It is not the amount you finally pay, so never compare cars on this figure alone.

On-road price is the real amount it takes to drive the car home. It adds road tax, registration and insurance on top of the ex-showroom price, so it is always higher.

ARAI mileage is the fuel figure the maker claims, measured in a lab. Your real world mileage is usually lower, because traffic, air conditioning and your driving style all burn extra fuel. Treat it as a way to compare, not a promise.

EMI is the fixed amount you pay every month when you buy a car on a loan. A lower EMI is kinder to your monthly budget, even when two cars cost about the same.

Kerb weight is how much the car weighs empty, with no people or luggage. It is a quick hint at how solid and planted the car feels on the road.

Variant, also called a trim, is a version of the same car with a different set of features and price. A base variant covers the essentials, while a top variant adds extras like a sunroof, a bigger screen and more airbags.
