I am currently driving a 2022 honda city zx cvt. Have driven around 35k so far. Feel an ich to upgrade and have narrowed down to Q3, Kodiaq and Tayron. Since all three share same underneath - engine, gearbox and infotainment (for later two). Which one would be a sensible shift considering Q3 face-lift is around the corner and it felt the only car missing bare minimum which others are offering like ventilated seats, bigger infotainment, etc? I am inclined towards Q3 manly for its size and the ON road cost being competitvr of the three. Pros and cons of owning this vehicles from owners is welcome.

Hi, I am 72 years old and looking at a final upgrade to my current car, a Kia Seltos GTX. Although both of us currently drive, I would also like the option of being chauffeur-driven in the future, if required. Therefore, rear-seat comfort and safety are important considerations. My annual driving is around 8,000km, including approximately 4-6 medium-distance trips. I would appreciate suggestions on upcoming launches in 2027. Would an EV or a hybrid make sense for my usage? Home charging will be available at our new home from mid-2027. I would prefer a mid-size, high-riding SUV that offers easy ingress and egress, along with comprehensive ADAS and parking assistance features. My budget is around Rs 50 lakh, with some flexibility. Looking forward to your suggestions.

With a budget of around Rs 50 lakh, there are some interesting options worth considering. In the hybrid space, the upcoming JSW Combat, based on the Jetour T2, would be one of the more interesting options. It should offer a distinctive design, a high seating position, a premium cabin, plenty of features and strong performance. Its plug-in hybrid powertrain could also make good sense given your relatively low annual running and the availability of home charging from mid-2027.If you prefer a more conventional luxury SUV, the Skoda Kodiaq is another option worth considering. It offers a comfortable, spacious cabin and a more traditional SUV experience, although it does not offer a hybrid powertrain.

I own a 2013 Maruti Swift petrol, which still runs well in Bangalore traffic. I am planning to buy a second car that is spacious and comfortable for five people, or a fun-to-drive seven-seater. I am confused between electric, hybrid and diesel options, as the new car will mainly be used for road trips, with a monthly running of around 1,000-1,200 km. Good service connectivity and reasonable maintenance costs are also important to me. My budget is around Rs 30-35 lakh. Could you suggest some cars I should consider? Also, are there any upcoming models expected in 2026 that would be worth waiting for?

Considering your requirements, the Mahindra XUV 7XO would be a good choice. Given your running of around 12,000-14,000 a year, buying a petrol variant would be idea as the diesel would be too expensive to justify the premium over the petrol version.In your budget, you can get the top-spec AX7 L that comes loaded with all the bells and whistles and tech you miss even on cars a segment above. The 7XO's highlight, however, is how it drives and rides. The engine is powerful, the suspension is excellent, and handling is genuinely impressive for its size. Plus, its third row is also surprisingly spacious, offering more room than the more premium Skoda Kodiaq and Volkswagen Tayron. Mahindra also has a wider service network, which should meet your requirements for service connectivity.

Hello. We currently own a Renault Fluence 1.5 dCi and a Hyundai i10 Automatic. We are now looking to replace the i10 with another compact car, and I am confused between the Skoda Kylaq, Citroen C3 and Hyundai i20 IVT. Before the Fluence, we owned a Fiat Palio Diesel 1.9. The new car will primarily be used for city driving.

For primarily city use, the Hyundai i20 IVT is the best fit. Its 1.2-litre naturally aspirated engine is smooth and refined, offering good drivability in the city. The IVT automatic is also seamless and makes everyday city driving very convenient.It will also be more fuel-efficient than the turbo-petrol Skoda Kylaq and Citroen C3. The Kylaq is worth considering if you do more highway driving or need the added ground clearance.Overall, the i20 is a good upgrade over your i10 and makes for a great city runabout.

I am planning to buy the top-end Hyundai Creta Turbo Petrol DCT variant. My daily running is around 50–100km, which adds up to approximately 25,000–30,000km annually. I am looking for a car that offers strong performance and quick acceleration, along with a comprehensive set of comfort and convenience features. Should I buy the current Creta Turbo Petrol DCT top variant or wait for the 2027 Creta? For context, I currently own a 2024 Maruti Suzuki Dzire Hybrid and a Volkswagen Virtus GT 1.5 TSI.

The 2027 Hyundai New Creta will be thoroughly updated inside-out, and it'll have more tech and features. If you don't mind waiting, it makes sense to get the 2027 new-gen model. Do note, its powertrain options are likely to be carried forward from the current version. If you can't wait, but still want the performance as well as the latest in terms of tech and features, consider the Kia Seltos turbo-dct instead, which packs in more or less everything the next-gen Creta is likely to offer.

Which SUV would you pick for a family of 5?

I’m planning to buy a new car, and my annual running is around 40,000km, primarily involving highway drives and ghat sections. I have shortlisted the Kia Seltos Diesel HTX and the upcoming facelifted Toyota Innova Hycross ZX. I’m considering two approaches: either buy the Innova Hycross and keep it for the next 10 years, given its reputation for longevity and the expectation that its engine can last at least 4 lakh kilometres, or buy the Seltos, drive it for around 2 lakh kilometres over 4–5 years, sell it and upgrade to a brand-new Seltos or another car of a similar price and size. On paper, the Innova Hycross Hybrid seems like the better choice, considering its long-term reliability and features such as the Ottoman reclining seats. However, I’m concerned that I might get bored of it after four years or that it may start feeling outdated as newer technologies and features enter the market. This makes the second option appealing, as it would allow me to upgrade to a brand-new car every 4–5 years. Which approach would make more sense in the long run, considering my high annual running and ownership costs?

It seems like you're leaning towards the Kia Seltos Diesel HTX, and we think it is a good choice. The diesel engine feels adequately powered for highway usage and ghat driving, and it is likely to return respectable efficiency too. Moreover, despite being modern with all the latest tech and features, the Seltos will be substantially more affordable than the Toyota Innova Hycross hybrid. So unless you need the Innova's extra space, or you frequently travel with six or seven passengers, the Kia Seltos diesel is your best bet.
