    Long distance runner

     

    I drive around 1500km a month, of which 60 percent is in the city and 40 percent on the highway. I’m looking for a car that’ll work for me for another five years or so. Should I choose the Honda City or the Renault Scala diesel?

    AAA
    The Scala is the better choice because for your running a diesel makes more sense. There are other reasons as well that favour the Renault. It is a better highway car than the City and will still be a current model after five years. The City is due to be replaced with an all-new model within a year.

    The Creta will be the third Hyundai N-Line model in India. Should more mass-market brands have sporty sub-brands?

    It doesn't always work; just look at Tata JTP
