The Verito beats the Etios hands down in terms of overall appearance and design. The Etios just looks to drab and uninitiated when it comes to looking good. The Verito in its new avatar looks sharp and suave, even on the inside it looks better than the dull and minimalistic interiors of the Etios.The petrol Etios sports a 1,496 cc engine that makes 89 bhp of power and 132 Nm of torque, that is 14 bhp more power than the Verito petrol. The diesel Etios has a 1,364 cc motor that makes 68 bhp of power and 170 Nm of torque which again is 3 bhp more than the Verito.The Etios starts at Rs. 5.14 lakh for the base petrol variant and goes up to Rs. 8.23 lakh for the top of the line diesel variant. So while the base Verito is still Rs.13,000 more expensive than the Etios the fully loaded variant of the Verito is a full Rs. 1 lakh cheaper and much more value for money.


New 2012 Mahindra Verito versus Dzire

When it comes to power and performance, the Dzire petrol’s 1.2 litre engine makes 86 bhp of power and 114 Nm of torque. The diesel Dzire sports the popular 1.3 litre multijet engine that makes 74 bhp of power and 190 Nm of torque.The Dzire is more powerful than the Verito, both in petrol and diesel avatars. The Dzire is priced at Rs. 4.44 lakh for the base petrol Lxi variant and goes up to Rs. 7.34 lakh for the top of the line diesel Zdi variant. The Dzire still starts at a lower price point but comparing the fully loaded top end variants, shows that the Verito is more value for money.
