Hi, I am 72 years old and looking at a final upgrade to my current car, a Kia Seltos GTX. Although both of us currently drive, I would also like the option of being chauffeur-driven in the future, if required. Therefore, rear-seat comfort and safety are important considerations. My annual driving is around 8,000km, including approximately 4-6 medium-distance trips. I would appreciate suggestions on upcoming launches in 2027. Would an EV or a hybrid make sense for my usage? Home charging will be available at our new home from mid-2027. I would prefer a mid-size, high-riding SUV that offers easy ingress and egress, along with comprehensive ADAS and parking assistance features. My budget is around Rs 50 lakh, with some flexibility. Looking forward to your suggestions.

With a budget of around Rs 50 lakh, there are some interesting options worth considering. In the hybrid space, the upcoming JSW Combat, based on the Jetour T2, would be one of the more interesting options. It should offer a distinctive design, a high seating position, a premium cabin, plenty of features and strong performance. Its plug-in hybrid powertrain could also make good sense given your relatively low annual running and the availability of home charging from mid-2027.If you prefer a more conventional luxury SUV, the Skoda Kodiaq is another option worth considering. It offers a comfortable, spacious cabin and a more traditional SUV experience, although it does not offer a hybrid powertrain.

I’m planning to buy a new car, and my annual running is around 40,000km, primarily involving highway drives and ghat sections. I have shortlisted the Kia Seltos Diesel HTX and the upcoming facelifted Toyota Innova Hycross ZX. I’m considering two approaches: either buy the Innova Hycross and keep it for the next 10 years, given its reputation for longevity and the expectation that its engine can last at least 4 lakh kilometres, or buy the Seltos, drive it for around 2 lakh kilometres over 4–5 years, sell it and upgrade to a brand-new Seltos or another car of a similar price and size. On paper, the Innova Hycross Hybrid seems like the better choice, considering its long-term reliability and features such as the Ottoman reclining seats. However, I’m concerned that I might get bored of it after four years or that it may start feeling outdated as newer technologies and features enter the market. This makes the second option appealing, as it would allow me to upgrade to a brand-new car every 4–5 years. Which approach would make more sense in the long run, considering my high annual running and ownership costs?

It seems like you're leaning towards the Kia Seltos Diesel HTX, and we think it is a good choice. The diesel engine feels adequately powered for highway usage and ghat driving, and it is likely to return respectable efficiency too. Moreover, despite being modern with all the latest tech and features, the Seltos will be substantially more affordable than the Toyota Innova Hycross hybrid. So unless you need the Innova's extra space, or you frequently travel with six or seven passengers, the Kia Seltos diesel is your best bet.
