I am looking to buy a new 7-seater car that should have sufficient third-row space. I am looking for a petrol variant with a 360-degree camera and Level 2 ADAS features.

Asked by: Uday

Given your requirements, you should consider the Kia Carens Clavis. It's got a spacious third row of seats which can accomodate adults, and the top-spec versions also come with a 360-degree parking camera and Level 2 ADAS features autonomous emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, lane-keep assist, rear cross-traffic alert and more.

This Kia car is powered by a 160hp, 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox.

Asked by: Kartik I am a new and young rider who will use the bike for around 20 km daily and rarely go on highways. I am interested in retro-style bikes within a budget of ₹4 lakh. Please suggest some options. In the neo-retro bike space, you can get credible options from Honda, Royal Enfield and Triumph. The Honda CB350 models and Royal Enfield 350s are similar in that they use big, air-cooled engines that prioritize torque over outright horsepower. However, the Honda bikes are lighter than the REs, which will impact the riding experience significantly. What sways the decision towards the Royal Enfields bikes is that they have a strong low-and mid-range torque output. It results in a more effortless riding experience in the city without too many gear changes. The Triumph 400s use a liquid-cooled, 399cc engine with significantly more power and torque than the Honda and RE 350s, and they also have a sportier chassis. As a result, their riding experience is more modern, and they feel significantly quicker. Depending on what you want from your neo-retro machine, the answer will differ, so we recommend you take a test ride to decide what suits you best.

Asked by: N I am planning to buy my first bike with a budget of 2-2.5 lakh. I test rode the CB350RS, Meteor and Guerrilla 450. I didn’t find the CB350RS comfortable, the Meteor felt good but lacked highway power, and the Guerrilla 450 is over budget. I want a bike with a non-aggressive riding position and good comfort on highways and potholes. Please suggest suitable options. Since this is your first bike, starting small and approachable would be the smart way to go about it. In that same vein, we would recommend the new Yamaha XSR155 because it is a light, comfortable, fuel-efficient machine that's also reasonably exciting to use. If you want a larger machine, then bikes like the Honda CB300F, Bajaj Pulsar N250 and Suzuki Gixxer 250 would be good options. Take a test ride of everything you shortlist before you decide.

Asked by: Reji Cherian I have a 2018 Maruti Ciaz, and I wish to upgrade. What are my options under ₹15 lakh? My main criteria are rear-seat legroom like my Ciaz and a mileage of at least 10kmpl in city driving. I also want decent power similar to the Ciaz and an automatic transmission. You should consider the Honda City. This sedan has a spacious and comfy back seat along with a responsive 121hp, 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine. In our real-world fuel efficiency tests, the City petrol MT returned 11.5kpl in the city and 17.7kpl out on the highway, while the petrol-CVT auto managed 12kpl in the city and 16.4kpl on the highway.Honda City prices in Mumbai start at Rs 11.95 lakh for the SV petrol-MT variant and go up till Rs 16.07 lakh for the ZX petrol-CVT variant (ex-showroom).

Asked by: Ghana I am a new learner and still not fully confident with my driving lessons. I am looking to buy my first car, which should be safe and within a budget of ₹5 to ₹7 lakh. Can you help me decide which option to go for? Also, I am not keen on Maruti cars as they do not have a good safety rating. The Tata Punch would make for a good first car for you. Compared to hatchbacks, the high seating will offer you a good view outside, and the compact dimensions will make it easy to maneuver and park, especially if you live in a congested area. Moreover, this Tata car also has a very good ride quality, is well-equipped, and is safe too.
