I am planning to go in for a midsize SUV petrol manual under Rs 16 lakh, and I have shortlisted the Skoda Kushaq and Kia Seltos. My commute involves a 40km drive every day and around 80km over the weekend. Which is the better option?

Autocar India says: We would suggest you look at the Kushaq 1.0 manual, which will not only fit your budget but is also a nicer car to drive than the Seltos 1.5 (non-turbo doesn’t have the same punch as the Kushaq). If you can stretch your budget, the top-end Seltos with the 1.5 turbo-petrol is feature-packed and has a strong engine, making it our pick for your budget.
