Is the Creta available with a torque converter automatic and an NA engine?

Verified
•3h

No, the Hyundai Creta with a naturally aspirated petrol engine is not paired to a torque converter automatic. The Creta's naturally aspirated petrol engine is offered only with a manual gearbox or a CVT (Hyundai calls it IVT). The only Creta variant with a torque converter automatic is the diesel, which uses a 6-speed torque converter automatic. If you specifically want a naturally aspirated petrol engine with a torque converter automatic, the Maruti Suzuki Victoris, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara and Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder are the only options in the mid-size SUV segment.

Please suggest a car under a budget of Rs. 10 lakh with 20km approximate daily running and one vacation trip quarterly.

With a budget of Rs. 10 lakh, daily running of 20 km and quarterly vacation trips, the Maruti Suzuki Brezza is the most sensible recommendation. Your daily running is not high enough to justify the premium of a diesel or hybrid, and both the Brezza's petrol engines are reliable, relatively efficient and well suited to both city driving and occasional highway runs. This Maruti Suzuki car also offers a comfortable ride, good ground clearance and a spacious cabin, making it a practical choice for family trips. Maruti's service network and low maintenance costs further strengthen the ownership proposition. Opt for the 1.0 turbo petrol if you want a bit more performance or go for the 1.5 naturally aspirated petrol if you want a more refined experience.

I need to buy a new car. Please suggest one. My driving is 80% city use.

Since you're already using a Hyundai i20, and you want a car in the 15-20 lakh price range, you could consider a Hyundai Verna 1.5 petrol IVT. It is a smooth, easy-to-drive and feature-packed sedan. If you want to look for a vehicle outside the Hyundai brand, you could consider a Kia Seltos 1.5 IVT for a similar ownership experience.

Hey, We are planning to buy a sub-4-metre SUV, and our main requirement is good suspension for Bengaluru’s pothole-filled roads, especially as my wife is pregnant. We have shortlisted the Maruti Suzuki Brezza, Mahindra XUV 3XO, and Tata Nexon. Which one would you recommend for our requirements? I was also considering a larger SUV like the Honda Elevate, but a well-equipped variant costs around Rs. 18 lakh on-road, which is beyond my budget. Could you suggest some good options in both categories? I can stretch my budget up to around Rs. 15 lakh on-road if required.

Given your priorities, the Mahindra XUV 3XO is the best fit. It has the most comfortable ride in the segment, with a suspension that deals with broken roads and potholes better than the Brezza or Nexon. The wide rear seat and good cabin space will also make a difference for your wife and family. The Brezza is the more reliable long-term ownership proposition, but its ride is not as plush as the 3XO. The Nexon is a good all-rounder, but the 3XO has the edge on ride comfort and rear seat space.On the Honda Elevate, it is a solid, reliable SUV with a comfortable ride, but at Rs 18 lakh on-road for the well-equipped variants, it is not worth stretching your budget for. The 3XO gives you a better ride and more features for less money.Overall, the 3XO is the best balance of ride comfort, space and value for your requirements. Go for the petrol automatic variant for the smoothest city driving experience.

I want to buy my first car, and I have a strict budget of Rs 10 lakh. I will not use the car on a daily basis; I will drive it occasionally, and I live in Kolkata.

For a car under 10 lakh budget and occasional use, the Maruti Suzuki Baleno makes sense. It is a genuinely spacious hatchback with a comfortable ride. It's easy to drive in the city and has a proven ownership record. The naturally aspirated petrol engine is smooth and reliable, and Maruti’s service network in Kolkata is excellent, which keeps long-term running costs low.For occasional use, you want a car that is easy to live with, dependable and does not demand much attention, and the Baleno fits that brief perfectly. It also offers a good balance of features and practicality within your budget.If you prefer a slightly higher seating position, the Maruti Suzuki Fronx is worth considering.

Hi, I am a first time buyer and live in Mumbai. I am confused whether I should buy Maruti Suzuki Fronx Amt or Maruti Suzuki Brezza Turbo. My usage is daily office commute which is approximately 40km and one trip in 2-3 months. Please suggest if any other option in automatic or manual are available.

With a daily commute of around 40km in Mumbai traffic and only occasional highway trips, an automatic would be much better to have. Between the two, the Fronx would thus be the one to go for as the Brezza Turbo comes with a manual only. The Fronx AMT also keeps costs down while still giving you the convenience of an automatic, though the shifts will not be as smooth as a torque convertor (TC) automatic which is what the Fronx Turbo comes with. Thus if your traffic conditions are constant start stop, you would be better off with the TC auto. Besides the two options you could also consider the Brezza with the 1.5 litre engine as this comes with a TC auto and being naturally aspirated makes for a straightforward drive experience in the city.
