I’m looking for a family car with comfort as the top priority. My usage is mostly in the city, with occasional highway runs to the airport. I want something reliable and easy-going. I am considering the Kia Sonet GTX, Hyundai Venue HX10, Honda Elevate ZX, and Kia Seltos HTX(A) IVT. I’m looking for your opinion.

We would rule out the Kia Sonet as it is a compact SUV and much smaller than the Honda Elevate and Kia Seltos, and hence, both comfort and luggage space won’t be anywhere near as good.Between the Seltos and the Elevate, we suggest you opt for the new Seltos, which is better than the Elevate in many ways. Firstly, the Kia Seltos’s 1.5 engine is smoother, and the iVT transmission is much better than Elevate’s CVT, which has much more of the ‘rubber band’ effect where the engine makes a straining sound when revved. The new Seltos’s interiors are far more plush, and the back seat is comfortable too. The new Seltos has a larger boot than before, which is very useful for your airport runs.

Is there any news about the launch of a new Ertiga model in 2026? When is it expected to be launched?

A new Maruti Suzuki Ertiga is unlikely to be launched this year, but the next-gen model, which is likely to come with a hybrid option, isn’t due before 2028. It is likely, though, that Maruti Suzuki could give the existing Ertiga a few minor tweaks to keep it fresh until the new model arrives.

I am looking for a sub-4-metre SUV with an automatic transmission and the best suspension to absorb speed breakers on highways, preferably petrol. Please advise.

We would recommend the Skoda Kylaq. The automatic is a torque converter gearbox, which is the smoothest autobox around. The suspension may feel a bit jittery at low city speeds, but its highway stability is good.Body roll is also well-contained, and road grip is very good, so as far as sub-4-meter SUVs go, the Kylaq is a good option for a secure highway drive.

I want to buy a new 5-seater 1500cc diesel engine SUV. My monthly running is around 3,000-3,500 km. Please suggest the best option for me.

We are not aware of your budget, but going by your pointers, we assume you are looking at the mid-size SUV segment. We would thus recommend the Kia Seltos. The 1.5-litre diesel engine is not punchy, but it linearly delivers sufficient power and offers decent refinement.The diesel is paired to a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter automatic, and since you drive quite a lot, we would recommend choosing the automatic.
