I have a budget of around Rs 12 lakh-14 lakh and have shortlisted and booked the Hyundai Creta diesel. Now, however, I am having second thoughts about the life of diesel cars. I will primarily be using the vehicle outside the Delhi-NCR region but will have a couple of monthly trips to Delhi. According to my calculations, going for a diesel for fuel economy will cover the premium I’ll be paying over a petrol car in around four years. Can I go in for the diesel Creta?

Autocar India says: If you’re driving outside the NCR region, then don’t worry about purchasing a diesel as the fuel is here to stay in some vehicles in India. The Creta’s diesel offers good efficiency and smooth performance, and, in fact, the 1.5 diesel – which also powers the Kia Seltos – is one of the best diesels around.
