I'm considering purchasing a new car and have shortlisted the Hyundai Creta EV, Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder Hybrid, and Mahindra Electric . As a daily commuter, I prioritize fuel efficiency, low maintenance, and overall value. Could you recommend the most suitable option among these?

Asked by: Sathish
If your daily driving includes frequent highway runs, the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder Hybrid would be a strong choice, especially considering the still-developing charging infrastructure.
Among the electric options, the Hyundai Creta EV and Mahindra BE 6e/XEV 9e cater to different types of buyers. The Mahindra EVs offer a longer range due to their larger battery packs and deliver a sportier design and performance.
The Creta EV, in contrast, feels more like a conventional car that happens to be electric. It’s well-packaged, with smooth motor calibration and a calm, refined driving experience.

Hi, I’m planning to buy my first car, which I won’t be driving regularly. My budget is under ₹14 lakh on-road. I’m looking for a fun-to-drive car and don’t need it to be family-focused. I’m open to both manual and automatic transmissions, whichever is more engaging to drive and fun.

The Skoda Kylaq will be the perfect choice for your requirements. It has a punchy 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine and is available in both a manual gearbox and a 6-speed torque converter automatic.The Kylaq has compact dimensions and has a well-balanced chassis that makes the car great fun to drive. The handling is particularly impressive, and it has a good build too. The Prestige variant in manual guise will fit in your budget, while the Signature+ AT variant works if you prefer the automatic.

I’m looking to buy a motorcycle with strong low-end torque. Which would be better among the Goan Classic 350, CB350, Harley-Davidson X440 T, and Royal Enfield Scram 440? My usage will mostly be in the city, with rare long rides, and I’m not concerned about top speed.

For city use among the bikes you're looking at, the top two would be the Royal Enfield Scram 440 and Harley-Davidson X440 T. These bikes have large, long-stroke, single-cylinder engines, which will have the edge over the smaller 350s you're looking at. However, if most of your usage is inside the city, we'd recommend sticking with the 350cc roadsters from either Royal Enfield - Hunter/ Classic / Bullet - or Honda - in the form of its CB350 trio. These bikes will have more than enough grunt for city traffic and will also return more fuel economy. Take a test ride of these to see which one suits you best.
