I am planning to buy a new automatic car with a budget of up to ₹15 lakh (on-road) in Margao, Goa. My key requirement is a premium, lounge-like cabin feel, preferably with a split or panoramic sunroof. I am looking for the most affordable option

No other car in that price bracket has a full-sized panoramic glass roof and delivers the same lounge-like feeling as the MG Windsor EV does. If you're open to EVs, this is your best bet.

The next best option is the Kia Syros, which has the largest panoramic sunroof in its segment. Additionally, due to its superb packaging, space in this sub-4-meter SUV is unmatched, and if you like the way it looks, it is certainly worthy of your consideration.

I am planning to buy a CNG car with a budget of around ₹10 lakh. My preference is for a 4-cylinder engine. My first choice is the Maruti Suzuki Brezza CNG, but the VXI variant costs around ₹11.8 lakh, which is slightly above my budget. I am not considering the LXI variant as it is too basic. I also have two concerns: I am open to buying a diesel car, but since I live in Delhi, I am worried about the 10-year diesel ban and possible future restrictions. With the government promoting ethanol blending (up to 20-30%), I am concerned about its impact on mileage and long-term engine performance. Considering these factors, could you please suggest the best option for me within my budget?

Pick the Maruti Fronx Delta CNG, it fits your Rs. 10 lakh budget, gives you the smooth 4‑cylinder you want, and it is the closest to the Maruti Suzuki Brezza feel without paying Brezza VXi money. The 1.2 CNG is quieter and smoother than most 3‑cylinder CNG cars, and the Delta trim has the basics you need, so it won’t feel as bare as a Brezza LXi. Maruti’s service network in NCR is widespread, which keeps ownership simple.Be aware of two things. With CNG, pick-up is calm, especially with four or five people and the AC on, so plan overtakes. The CNG tank also eats into the boot, so luggage space is limited.If these are deal breakers for you, then consider the Tata Nexon iCNG in Smart+ trim. It uses twin-tanks so you get a 321-litre usable boot and gets all the basic features you need. It has a 3-cylinder engine instead of the 4-cylinder you prefer, but it is turbocharged, which means you get a lot more performance.On the test drive, load three adults, switch on the AC, and climb a flyover to see if performance is adequate.

Go for the Maruti Suzuki Baleno Alpha manual for your budget and light usage, it gives you the best mix of low running costs, good mileage, and the must-have features like Android Auto. Since you drive only once or twice a week and take a long trip rarely, a simple, reliable petrol car suits you better than a diesel or CNG. The Baleno’s 1.2-litre, four-cylinder engine is smooth, it is efficient, and the car is easy to park and easy to see out of. Maruti’s service is everywhere, and routine service bills are usually low, which fits your request to keep maintenance simple. The top-spec Alpha gets all the features you want and some more, like a touchscreen with Android Auto, rear camera, auto climate control, a heads-up display and more.If you do want more clearance and a slightly elevated driving position, look at the Maruti Suzuki Fronx.

I recently purchased a Hyundai i20. Earlier, I owned a Hyundai i10 and received a good exchange value for it. Now, I am planning to buy a second car for my personal use, while the i20 will be used by my family. My budget is up to ₹14 lakh, and my monthly running will be around 1,500 km. Could you please suggest the best car for my needs and explain why it would be a suitable choice?

Go for the Maruti Victoris VXi manual as it fits your Rs 14 lakh budget and represents a step up from your i20. You will sit higher, see the road better, and it deals with bad roads and speed breakers better than the i20, yet it is still relatively easy to park and thread through traffic. The controls are light, the petrol engine feels smooth and calm in the city, and Maruti’s wide service network makes ownership simple almost anywhere. One thing to be aware of: the engine is more about smoothness than speed, so if you're on a highway with four people and luggage, you may need to plan your overtakes. While the Victoris VXi MT will be ideal, if you want to benefit from lower running costs, consider the Victoris LXi CNG. If a big part of your 1,500 km is highway and you want lower fuel bills and stronger pull at low speeds, look at the Kia Sonet diesel manual mid variant. It suits long runs well, though the ride can feel a bit firm on sharp bumps. If you want to stay with Hyundai, check the Venue diesel manual, which is mechanically identical to the Sonet.
