I have a 2023 Kia Seltos HTX IVT 1.5 petrol back in Jaipur and now I want to purchase another car in Bangalore. Which car should I consider new brezza facelift 2026 model or Hyundai Venue. Or are there better options available in this category. My budget is strictly 15lakhs on road. Should I purchase it from Bangalore or from Jaipur and than get it transferred here

The Brezza offers a more rugged design and better boot space, while the Venue has a more modern interior and tech features. I personally prefer the Venue for city driving due to its compact size and smooth handling.

I recently test-drove the Maruti Suzuki Brezza ZXi Turbo MT and found it to be excellent value for money. I am now comparing it with the Skoda Kylaq Signature Plus MT. This will be our first car. Is it worth spending the extra money on the Kylaq, or does the Brezza make more sense? I am also concerned about long-term ownership costs, maintenance, and resale value. Which one would you recommend?

Go for the Maruti Suzuki Brezza ZXI Turbo MT. As a first car, it is the more sensible choice. The Brezza is a proven product with a strong reputation for reliability, low maintenance costs and excellent service reach, which is exactly what you want in your first ownership experience. The turbo petrol engine is punchy for city and highway use, and Maruti’s ownership ecosystem makes long-term running costs predictable and stress-free. The Kylaq Signature Plus MT is a genuinely good car with a more engaging driving experience, but as a first car, the higher purchase price, potentially higher maintenance costs and Skoda’s smaller service network make this Skoda car a less compelling choice. The Brezza also holds its value well, so resale should not be a concern. Overall, the Brezza is the safer, more practical and more confidence-inspiring first car.

I currently own a used Maruti Suzuki Celerio VXi Manual, which I have been driving for the past six years. I am now planning to sell it and buy a used sub-4-metre SUV. Since I do not drive very frequently, I do not want to spend too much on a brand-new car. My budget is around Rs. 8-9 lakh. Do you think buying a used compact SUV is a good idea? If yes, which models would you recommend? Thanks in advance.

Yes, it is a sensible idea. Since your running is low and you do not want to spend too much, buying a used sub-4m SUV is a practical upgrade from the Maruti Suzuki Celerio. With a budget of Rs 8-9 lakh, you can find a well-maintained example that will give you the benefits of a higher seating position, better ground clearance and a more comfortable ride without the steep depreciation hit of a new car.The Maruti Suzuki Brezza is the most sensible recommendation here. It is reliable, easy to maintain, has a strong service network and is one of the most dependable cars in the segment. The naturally aspirated petrol engine is smooth and well-suited to city driving, and ownership costs are low. You should be able to find a relatively recent model within your budget.If you want something a bit more premium and feature-rich, the Mahindra XUV 3XO is worth considering. It offers a more powerful turbo petrol engine, a wider cabin and a more modern feel. However, it may be slightly harder to find a newer example within your budget compared to the Brezza.Overall, the Brezza is the safer long-term choice, while the XUV 3XO offers a more premium experience if you can find a good deal.

I want to buy a car at a reasonable price, but I really like the Mahindra Thar. I am a 56-year-old working woman and drive daily. Would the Thar be a comfortable and practical choice for my everyday use, or would you recommend a better alternative?

Verified

With a budget of under Rs 5 lakhs, you will only be able to get pre-owned examples of the first-gen Thar. And while it is a very appealing SUV, it is not the best choice for daily driving, especially if comfort is a priority. It is a rugged off-roader; however, the first-gen's ride is bouncy, entry-exit isn't very easy, and heavy steering and crude nature will become tiring for daily use. The side-facing rear seat is also neither safe nor comfortable, and overall, it is better suited as a lifestyle or weekend vehicle rather than a daily commuter.Since you have a Rs 5 lakh budget and you want something with good road presence, you could consider an SUV car which is compact and easy to drive. A Maruti Brezza or Ford EcoSport could be good options for daily driving.

I currently own a Skoda Kushaq Petrol AT. Everything is fine except the mileage. I am getting only around 10-13kpl with E20 petrol. My daily running is around 100 km. Should I buy a diesel car or an electric car?

Verified

With a daily running of around 100 km, fuel efficiency becomes a major factor in ownership costs. The Skoda Kushaq petrol automatic is a good car, but the 10-13kpl you are seeing is typical for a turbo petrol automatic, especially with E20 petrol. At this usage, a diesel or a strong hybrid makes far more sense.If you do regular highway runs, a diesel is still the most practical and cost-effective solution. The Mahindra XUV 7XO diesel automatic would be the recommendation here. It is a strong highway car, comfortable, spacious and the diesel engine will deliver significantly better fuel efficiency than your Kushaq. Diesel running costs will be far lower over your kind of mileage. If that is out of your budget, something smaller like a Kia Seltos diesel, while not as powerful, is even more efficient.If your usage is mostly city a strong hybrid could be a better solution. The Maruti Suzuki Victoris is the most practical and cost-effective option. It is well priced, has a proven track record and will dramatically reduce your running costs. The strong hybrid is better suited to the city, where it is more likely to run on its electric motor than use the engine and deliver the better mileage.

I’m planning to buy an EV with a budget of Rs. 19 - 20 lakh. My heart says the Tata Sierra EV Pure 63, but my mind says the Kia Syros top variant because of features like ventilated seats. Kindly suggest which one would be the better choice.

The choice really comes down to your usage and what you value in the car. If you need more space for both passengers and luggage and have a few long drives that you would undertake, then opt for the Tata Sierra. It is a much larger car and has a very spacious interior. The ride quality is also very good over both bad city roads as well as high highway speeds. If, however, your usage is mainly going to be within the city, then the Kia Syros is the better buy. Its compact footprint will be much easier to manage while driving congested streets, and finding parking would be easier. You would also enjoy the top variant of Kia car and its features.

I am looking for a spacious car for three people, with a naturally aspirated engine, automatic gearbox, and good mileage in both city and highway driving. I have shortlisted the Maruti Suzuki Brezza and Honda Amaze. My budget is Rs 10-15 lakh. Please suggest.

Go for the Maruti Suzuki Brezza automatic. It is the better fit for your requirements. You want a naturally aspirated petrol engine, good mileage in both city and highway driving, and a spacious car for three people. The Brezza delivers on all those points. The 1.5-litre petrol engine of this Maruti Suzuki car is smooth and reliable, and the 6-speed torque converter automatic is well suited to Indian driving conditions. It is also a more spacious car than the Honda Amaze, with a wider cabin and better rear seat comfort for three people. The higher seating position and SUV stance also make it easier to drive in the city and over bad roads.The Amaze is a good car, but it is a compact sedan and does not offer the same level of space or practicality. The Brezza is the more complete package for your needs.The Maruti Suzuki Brezza price can vary between Rs. 7.39 lakh (ex-showroom) and goes up to Rs. 11.15 lakh (ex-showroom), depending on the variant you choose.The Honda Amaze price starts at Rs. 7.9 lakh (ex-showroom) and extends up to Rs. 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom), depending on the variant.
