In fact, it’s more expensive than the all-new Honda City aside from the City RS which has yet to announce its price. Does this mean that the City is a better buy than the Almera? Well, let’s take a deep dive comparison between

Previously, we've compared the BMW 330i and the Mercedes-Benz C300. Since then, BMW Malaysia has introduced a new variant to the G20 3 Series lineup - the 320i. Once more, we’re pitting these two against each other but at one rung below, the BMW 320i vs the Mercedes-Benz C200. What's better BMW 3 Series or Mercedes C-Class?
