Currently, we can find up to ten models from different brands that can meet our needs. The engine of these cars usually tends towards petrol and diesel. However, we can find some that use LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) and petrol.

and manual gearbox with

The Essence variant

most affordable of the two possibilities. It offers the Stop&Start system, manual transmission

with
