Looking for a peppy automatic car under Rs 12 lakh

Currently, I am using the VW Polo petrol 1.2 Highline, and am looking for an upgrade. I want an automatic car with a more powerful and peppy engine for daily use, and for highway running during the weekends. My budget is around Rs 12 lakh. Also, safety is priority for me. Please help.

AAA The most logical upgrade for you is the VW Polo GT TSI which comes with a more powerful 105hp 1.2-litre turbo-petrol, mated to a seven-speed DSG automatic gearbox. In terms of safety too, the Polo has the best credentials passing the stringent NCAP crash tests with four stars – a huge achievement by Indian small car standards.
