How is the Honda Amaze CVT in your view? I don’t see many posts recommending this sedan.

The Honda Amaze CVT is a very good car for the money. While the dimensions are small, it delivers good cabin space for passengers, and there's enough room in the boot as well. The CVT gearbox is a highlight and delivers a far smoother experience than you get in cars of a similar price that typically use an AMT gearbox. It is a good choice and one we readily recommend. 

The closest alternative to the Honda Amaze is the Maruti Suzuki Dzire. The Honda car has the upper hand with a smoother transmission, while the Maruti Suzuki car is more fuel efficient and also costs less. For in-depth analysis, read the Honda Amaze vs Maruti Dzire comparison.

Hello Autocar, My budget is around ₹13 lakh, and I want to own an automatic car. My daily running will be less than 10 km because I travel to the office by bike. The car will be used mostly on weekends and for intercity travel. Please suggest a suitable car for me. How about purchasing the Honda City CVT in 2026? Should I go ahead now or wait for its facelift?

The Honda City CVT is a good car; however, even the base version would be over the Rs 13 lakh mark. You could thus consider the Honda Amaze CVT instead. The top-end version will come in under your budget, and you will get a well-equipped car with features like an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless phone connectivity. It also has in cabin air purifier, automatic climate control with rear AC vents and even an ADAS system, which can come in handy on your highway drives. The Amaze is also quite spacious inside, and the boot, too, is large and should accommodate any weekend luggage you may have.

I currently drive a 2015 Hyundai Grand i10 petrol and am planning to replace it with a compact SUV. My daily driving is around 25 km with a mix of city and highway use, and I usually go on a long trip once a month. My budget is around Rs 10-15 lakh. Should I choose a petrol or diesel car for this usage, and which compact SUV would you recommend?

Your limited usage doesn’t justify a diesel, so we recommend sticking to a petrol engine. If you’re happy with the Hyundai experience, the new Venue fits your needs well. The latest generation has grown in size, and the interior is roomier than before.Within your budget, you could opt for the HX6 variant with the turbo-petrol and DCT combination. It comes well equipped with features like a sunroof, automatic climate control and cruise control. The engine is powerful enough for your long highway tours, and the DCT works well in the city. Do take a test drive before you commit to a purchase.
