|  Pick the Overdrive Car of the Year 2005 After Business Standard Motoring, it's the turn of Overdrive Magazine to announce their annual Car, Bike and UV of the Year 2005. The (and I quote) 'nation's most coveted awards and prestigious awards for automotive excellence' will be up for grabs in New Delhi on January 8, 2005. You can cast your vote too. If your choice matches the jury's, you could win yourself a Ferrari. Seriously, go ahead...  |

| I would rate Getz higher than fusion. Fusion is simply too expensive and it is neither a sedan nor a SUV. For the same price, you can get either a NHC (a very good package in itself) or a Scorpio. To me Getz looks marginally higher priced for its engine. But may be refinement levels will justify the cost. Its practical too. |

| Senior - BHPian  | Getz for me too. Fusion is rather pointless, and looks SOOOO dull too. |

| BHPian  | My vote goes to Hyundai Getz, its a great family car and certainly i think it is the best car from Hyundai yet in India. |
