I own a 2015 BS4 diesel car with valid fitness and pollution certificates, and I'll be visiting Delhi in a few days. Am I allowed to drive it in Delhi when GRAP restrictions are not in force?

•21h

No, you are not allowed to drive your 2015 BS4 diesel car in Delhi, even if all your fitness and pollution certificates are valid and GRAP restrictions are not in place. The 10-year diesel vehicle ban in Delhi is a standing order from the National Green Tribunal and the Supreme Court, and it applies irrespective of fitness certificates or temporary GRAP measures. The ban is not linked to GRAP; it is a blanket restriction on diesel vehicles older than 10 years from being used or parked on public roads within the NCT of Delhi. If your diesel car is registered outside Delhi, you may be able to transit through the city on the ring road or designated bypass routes, but you cannot use the car within Delhi city limits. The only exception is if the car has been retrofitted and re-registered as an electric vehicle, which is a complex and expensive process. The rule is enforced through ANPR cameras and police checks, and fines are substantial, so it is not worth the risk. If you need to drive in Delhi, it is better to use a newer vehicle, a petrol car, or public transport.

I have a Volkswagen Taigun (December 2021 model) that has covered 70,000 km. Over the last three months, it has stalled three times on the road, with the EPC warning light illuminating. The response from the authorised dealer has been very poor.

•1d

The EPC light and stalling on your Taigun are understandably concerning, especially at 70,000km. The EPC (Electronic Power Control) warning is a generic fault indicator, so the underlying cause could range from a simple sensor issue to something more complex like a fuel system or throttle body problem. The fact that the car is stalling suggests it is not a minor glitch and needs proper diagnosis.The bigger concern here is the dealer response. Volkswagen’s service experience can be inconsistent, and if your authorised dealer is not resolving the issue, it is worth escalating the matter to Volkswagen India customer care and requesting a more thorough investigation or a different service centre. At 70,000km, the car is still relatively young, and this should be fixable.

I want to buy my first car. I currently own a Hero Passion XPro bike. Around 70% of my driving will be on highways, and my budget is Rs. 10 lakh. I have shortlisted the Maruti Dzire VXi, Mahindra XUV 3XO REVX (M), Tata Nexon Smart Plus, and Tata Punch Turbo. Which one would be the most suitable for me?

•7h

Go for the Mahindra XUV 3XO. With 70 percent highway usage, you need a car that feels stable at speed, has strong overtaking performance and offers good safety. The 3XO delivers on all three fronts. The turbo petrol engine has enough punch for quick overtakes, the car feels planted on the highway and Mahindra car has a strong safety record. The Maruti Suzuki Dzire VXi is a good car, but it is more suited to city driving and engine performance feels a bit lacking for the highway. The Tata Nexon Smart Plus is a solid option, but the 3XO offers better value and a more engaging driving experience.

I am confused between the Toyota Innova Crysta and the Mahindra XUV 7XO. I am looking for a comfortable 7-seater with good luggage space and a premium interior, including a high-quality music system. My usage will be mostly on highways, with occasional city driving. Which one would you recommend?

•2d

Go for the Toyota Innova Crysta. Your usage is highway-heavy with occasional city runs, and you want a proper 7-seater with good luggage space and a premium feel. The Crysta is still the benchmark for this kind of requirement. It is genuinely spacious in all three rows, has a large and usable boot even with all seats up, and is built for long-distance comfort and reliability. The diesel engine is strong, refined and well-suited to highway cruising, and Toyota’s ownership experience and long-term reliability are hard to beat. The Mahindra XUV 7XO is the more modern product with a more premium-looking interior and a better sound system, but it does not match the Crysta for outright space, practicality or long-term peace of mind. If your priority is a proper 7-seater that will serve you well for years, the Crysta is the safer and more sensible choice. If you want a more premium cabin and a richer feature set, the XUV 7XO is the alternative, but it is not as practical as the Crysta.

I want to buy a low-maintenance car for my father, who is 65 years old. My budget is around 15 lakh. His daily commute is around 30-40km, and he also visits our farm 7-8 times a month. Which car would you recommend?

•6d

For your father, the Maruti Suzuki Brezza petrol automatic is the most sensible recommendation. At 65, ease of use, reliability and low maintenance are far more important than outright performance or flashy features. The Brezza’s naturally aspirated petrol engine is simple, proven and well-suited to a 30-40 km daily commute, while the automatic gearbox makes city driving effortless. Maruti’s service network is the best in the country, which means low running costs and peace of mind over the long term.This Maruti Suzuki car also has enough ground clearance and a robust suspension setup to handle occasional farm visits without any fuss. It is not the most exciting car in the segment, but it is comfortable, easy to drive and built for hassle-free ownership. At Rs 15 lakh, it is one of the most dependable choices you can make for your father. Since the Brezza facelift is just around the corner, you can wait for that or try to get a good deal on the outgoing model.

I am a senior citizen, 5'10" tall, and currently own a 2012 Maruti Wagon R. I am planning to replace it and am considering the Swift, Wagon R, and Exter. How is the Hyundai Exter Petrol AMT for my needs? My usage is limited to city driving with low annual running. Which one would you recommend?

•6d

Given your requirements, the Hyundai Exter AMT is the best fit. As a senior citizen with city-only driving and low annual kilometres, the Exter offers the right balance of ease of use, comfort and practicality. The higher seating position makes ingress and egress easier, visibility is excellent, and the AMT gearbox is smooth enough for city traffic. The cabin is more spacious than the Swift, especially in terms of headroom and rear seat comfort, and the ride quality is better over broken roads. Compared to the Wagon R, the Exter feels more premium, better built and more refined, while still offering the same ease of use and practicality. The Swift is a good car, but its lower seating position and tighter rear seat make it less suitable for your needs. The Wagon R remains a practical choice, but the Exter is a clear step up in comfort, safety and overall ownership experience. Go for the Exter AMT, and you will have a car that is easy to live with for many years.
