I am planning to upgrade from Skoda Rapid Monte Carlo 1.0 AT (2020) to a family-friendly SUV. Considering the new Renault Duster Hybrid and Hyundai Creta IVT/Turbo Petrol. With ageing parents and a 9-month-old baby, my priorities are easy ingress and egress, spacious rear seats and good boot space. My annual running is around 5,000 km which mostly involves city driving. Which SUV would you recommend?

The Renault Duster (non-hybrid) has a large rear boot and the car is also newer and fun to drive, however your priorities of spacious rear seats and easy ingress/egress would be better met in the Creta and we would suggest the IVT as its smoother than the DCT autobox for everyday family use. Given that an all new Creta is around the corner you should bargain hard for a good deal and you could have a significantly lower purchase price too.

Hello, I am 51 years old. My wife, two teenagers, and my mother are a part of my family. Till now, I have only bought functional and not so expensive cars. I am at a stage where I can splurge on something more comfortable that comes with premium features. I can go upto 35 Lakhs and would be fine with a 5-seater or a 6-seater with captain seats. I mostly drive within the Mumbai city which includes long drive once in a month. I was thinking of a petrol or hybrid automatic car as it will deliver decent mileage while being environment friendly. I have shortlisted Kia Sorento Hybrid, Innova Hycross, Hyundai Alcazar, Kia Carens Clavis Turbo Petrol, MG Hector Tomohawk PHEV and Mahindra XUV 7XO Diesel. All cars are automatic. For me, driving as well as back seat comfort are important. The car should have a good music system, features and should be comfortable to drive. I am not considering an EV because I do not have a home charger. What do you recommend?

The Kia Sorento best fits your requirements. It falls within your budget of Rs. 35 lakhs, comes with 6 or 7-seater options and has a premium, feature-packed cabin. The Sorento also has a comfortable ride quality and a smooth and responsive strong hybrid powertrain, featuring a 1.6-litre turbo petrol engine, an electric motor and a DCT gearbox. Since your running is mostly within the city with occasional long drives, the strong hybrid makes sense for you and gives you the benefit of greater fuel efficiency and lower emissions. While the middle row is spacious and comfy, the third row is best for children, so that's worth keeping in mind. Also, with your budget you might be restricted to the entry-level HTE variant and will miss out on certain feel-good features like a branded Bose audio system, ventilated seats, ambient lighting and more. But overall, it is the one that we would recommend for you.

I’m a first-time car buyer and I’m confused between the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara Delta (Rs 12.7 lakh on-road), the Brezza VXi automatic (Rs 11.4 lakh) and the Brezza ZXi manual (Rs 11.5 lakh). I’m not sure how much of my driving will be in the city and how much on the highway. If I choose the automatic, I’ll miss out on many features that come with the Brezza ZXi and the Grand Vitara Delta. Is it okay to give up those features and choose the VXi automatic?

•1d

It is a tricky choice, but we would lean towards the Maruti Suzuki Brezza VXi automatic. In today's increasingly congested traffic conditions, the convenience of an automatic transmission is something you will appreciate every day. The additional features on the Brezza ZXi manual or Grand Vitara Delta may seem attractive initially, but over the years, the ease of driving an automatic is likely to matter more.The Brezza VXi AT is not poorly equipped either. It gets a touchscreen infotainment system, automatic climate control, six airbags, ESP and hill-hold assist. You will miss out on features such as cruise control, a rear parking camera and a sunroof, but some convenience features can be added later through accessories.

What are Mahindra’s plans for an ICE SUV positioned above the XUV 7XO? Specifically, does Mahindra plan to launch any ICE SUVs in the Rs 30-40 lakh bracket?

•2d

Mahindra has not yet confirmed an all-new ICE SUV positioned above the XUV 7XO in the Rs 30-40 lakh bracket. However, there are some interesting developments on its future product roadmap. The company has outlined plans for 10 new ICE models by 2031, including nine new nameplates, with several expected to use its upcoming NU_IQ platform. The Vision X and Vision SXT concepts are among the products to watch, although their final positioning and specifications are yet to be revealed. A more immediate development is the possibility of a strong-hybrid version of the XUV 7XO, which Mahindra is evaluating and could introduce around 2027. This would potentially sit above the current petrol and diesel variants, offering better fuel efficiency and a more sophisticated powertrain. Mahindra is also working on a coupe-styled hybrid SUV, internally codenamed W623, which could arrive around 2028, although its positioning is not yet clear.

I want to buy a compact SUV (petrol, automatic) under a budget of Rs. 12-13 lakh. Help me decide between Brezza, Venue, Kylaq, XUV 3XO and Amaze (since it is a compact Sedan) considering that the mileage within city should not be less than 13-14kpl.

•17h

Between your picks, the Maruti Suzuki Brezza 1.5-litre automatic is your best bet since city fuel efficiency is your main priority. The Hyundai Venue, Skoda Kylaq and Mahindra XUV 3XO all use turbo-petrol engines, which aren't particularly known for their fuel efficiency in the city. That said, achieving your target of 13-14kpl in city driving with any of these cars will require a very sedate driving style.The Brezza also comes with a smooth-shifting 6-speed torque converter automatic, which makes driving in the city very easy. One drawback is that, its interior won't feel as modern as the Hyundai Venue. The Honda Amaze is another good choice, but being a compact sedan, it won't feel as spacious as the Brezza.
