Driving Tata tiago xt 2021 from last 5 years. Good car in terms of stability on highways. Better than Swift, wagonr and celerio in this segment. However, pickup and acceleration seems sluggish on highways during overtake.

Liked the feature edition especially the ventilated seats at the front and rear. Didn't like what they pasted on top of the grill, made a classy look loose its charm. Was looking forward to its hybridisation and more work on controlling its NVH levels. Which disappointedly didt happend. Though still feels that it is now closer to the competition than ever before.

IVT is best for city bumper-to-bumper traffic. I have been driving the Hyundai Creta S(O) IVT for the last 3 months, and before that, I was using a manual car. I have also driven a DCT, but in traffic it tends to accelerate and brake abruptly, which can feel jerky and tiring in stop-go conditions. Creta IVT, on the other hand, is smooth, refined, and much more comfortable for daily city commutes.

Regarding the Crysta option, I have found a 2024 Innova Crysta ZX manual with only 10,000 km on the odometer, available for sale at an authorised showroom. Is it wise to prefer this sparingly used Crysta over a brand-new GX or GX Plus variant? I find the deal quite attractive.

If the 2024 Crysta ZX manual is genuinely a 10,000 km car from an authorised showroom with a clean service history, it is a very attractive proposition. The ZX is the top-spec variant, so you are getting a far richer feature set than the GX or GX Plus, and the Crysta’s diesel engine and manual gearbox are both known for their long-term durability. The key here is that the Crysta is a proven workhorse with a reputation for running well past 2-3 lakh km with proper maintenance, so 10,000 km is barely run-in.The only caveat is price. If the asking price is close to a new GX or GX Plus, it is still worth considering because you are getting the top variant with all the additional features and a car that is essentially still new. Just make sure the price premium over a new GX is not excessive, and that the car comes with a full service record and any remaining warranty transferred to you.

I am confused between Creta SX IVT and Elevate CVT for 8000 km of annual running with long trips of 1200 km 3-4 times in a year for a family of 4. Apart from this, day to day usage is less than 100km per month. I am looking for a car for long term ownership and travel comfort.

The Creta SX IVT is the better fit for your requirement. It offers a quieter, more refined cabin, comfortable rear seats and a smoother CVT, which are particularly valuable when spending several hours on the highway with four people and luggage. Autocar's long term experience with the Creta petrol IVT also found it refined, comfortable and particularly well suited to road trips.The Honda Elevate CVT has advantages of its own. Its 220mm ground clearance, long travel suspension and large 458-litre boot make it particularly good on poor roads, while its naturally aspirated 1.5-litre engine and CVT make for a relatively simple powertrain. However, the cabin is noticeably noisier, particularly when accelerating hard, and the CVT can produce the typical rubber band effect.

Hi Autocar Team, I am confused between the XUV 7XO AX7T diesel manual and automatic. My current ride is a Fluidic Verna diesel manual, which is nearing 15 years of ownership and has clocked nearly 2.5 lakh km. My usage consists of mixed city and highway driving, with around 40km daily and weekend highway runs of about 400km. For long-term ownership, which would be the better choice: the manual or automatic?

•3d

Go for the XUV 7XO AX7T diesel automatic. The diesel engine is well suited to your high running, and the automatic gearbox is a proven torque converter unit that is reliable and well matched to the engine. This Mahindra car will make your daily city driving far less tiring, while still being smooth and efficient on the highway. Coming from a 15-year-old Hyundai Verna diesel manual, the automatic will feel like a significant upgrade in terms of comfort and ease of use, without compromising on long-term reliability. The manual is still a good option if you strongly prefer the engagement, but for your usage and ownership horizon, the automatic is the smarter choice.

Hi, I am planning to buy a CNG SUV and am considering the Tata Nexon CNG and Maruti Suzuki Brezza CNG. I will be driving around 150km every day for office, so my main concerns are fuel economy and maintenance costs. Many people have suggested the Brezza because of its mileage and lower running costs, but Tata is also a large company and has a wide service network. So, why do buyers generally recommend the Brezza over the Nexon CNG? I personally prefer the Nexon, but I am confused about whether it would be the right choice for my daily usage. Which one would make more sense for my requirements?

Go with the Tata Nexon CNG if that is your preference. At 150 km daily, CNG is the right fuel choice, and both the Nexon and Maruti Suzuki Brezza are factory CNG cars, so reliability and safety are not a concern. The Nexon CNG is a strong product with good performance, a comfortable ride and a well-equipped cabin. The reason many people suggest the Brezza is Maruti's reputation for low maintenance costs, wide service reach and a long-standing reputation for hassle-free ownership. The Brezza CNG is also a very reliable and efficient package. However, the Nexon CNG is the more modern car and feels more premium inside.At 150 km daily, the key is to choose the car you will enjoy driving every day. The Nexon CNG is a solid choice, and there is no reason to change your decision.
