I am confused between the Honda Amaze ZX CVT, Honda Elevate ZX CVT, and Hyundai Venue HX10 AT. My main concerns are safety, ease and smoothness of driving, and reliability. I mostly drive in the city with an occasional highway trip once a month or so for vacations. Please suggest a good car among the ones I have listed. Thanks!

Asked by: Baloo

The Honda Amaze is a compact sedan, the Honda Elevate is an SUV, and the Hyundai Verna is a mid-size sedan. So, they are quite different in terms of body style and their usage. 

The Honda Amaze suits buyers on a tighter budget, and since you’ve shortlisted the Elevate and Verna, we assume your budget is higher and around Rs 20 lakh.

The Hyundai Verna is a well-equipped sedan and works well for city driving. That said, we also suggest you look closely at Elevate. SUVs are generally more comfortable and confidence-inspiring on highways. 

The Honda Elevate 1.5-litre engine paired with the CVT gearbox feels smooth and responsive in everyday city use as well. It also offers a large boot, which is handy for weekend trips and vacation luggage

Hi. I have been driving a Ford Figo for the last 13-15 years, and it has done only about 65,000 km, which shows how little I drive. This is mostly city driving. I am not a driving enthusiast and drive only because I have to. My family says it’s time to change and get a new car. We have been test-driving a few in the ₹15 lakh on-road price range. The ones we have shortlisted are the Kia Syros DCT and Hyundai Venue DCT. We also checked the Honda Bassalt and Skoda Kylaq.

For the family, the Kia Syros DCT is the most appropriate simply because the Syros has the most spacious cabin. The rear seats in particular are comfortable, offering more headroom and legroom than the Kia Sonet and Skoda Kylaq. The Syros is also superbly equipped, feels quite premium and has a large boot. The only issue is that the Syros pricing is a bit too high for a sub-4 metre SUV and not the best value.

I have a budget of ₹10-12 lakh and have shortlisted two cars: the Tata Nexon Creative S+ AMT and the Honda Amaze ZX CVT. My monthly driving will not exceed 500 km. Since this will be my first car, I am a bit confused about which one to choose.

The Honda Amaze will offer a better ownership experience for you. Firstly, it's a CVT, which is smoother and much more responsive than the AMT in the Tata Nexon. It’s lighter and more agile than the Nexon too, which as a first-time owner makes it easier to drive and manouver especially in the city. Being a Honda car, you can expect it to be more reliable and easier to maintain. It’s efficient and fairly spacious too, and for your budget, the Amaze is the right choice.

I want to buy a car with better suspension and one that's easy to get into because my mother has knee problems.

Without knowing your budget, it is hard to suggest the right car for your needs. However, the best options to consider are the Kia Carens Clavis and Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. The MPVs have relatively low floors and large rear doors that will make getting in and out more convenient for your mother.Also, both of these cars deliver a comfortable ride. The Kia Carens Clavis does have a softer and more absorbent ride quality, especially on versions that ride on 15-inch wheels.
