Hi. I’m a first-time car buyer with no driving experience, but I want to buy a CNG automatic car. Please suggest between the Tiago and the Tigor. It should be value for money. My monthly commute will be about 500 km in the city and a weekly highway trip of around 300-500 km.

If you want CNG with AMT, you have a limited choice. Tata Tiago is a better option between the two. While Tata Motors has not updated the product in some time now, there are very few CNG AMTs in the market currently. If that is your requirement, then the Tata Tiago makes more sense. It offers better cabin space, and it has a usable boot despite the CNG cylinders taking up some luggage room.The other option you can consider is the Nissan Magnite. It is easier on the pocket and has been updated recently. Maginte too comes with the CNG and AMT combination.

I want to get a car with a budget of 20 lakhs. Don't want it tobbe as big as my current Honda CR-V 2013. Should be comfortable for 5 people and give decent mileage for a city like Mumbai. What would be a good option for me amongst options like Tata Sierra, Mahindra Xuv700, Skoda Kylaq/Kushaq, Toyota Hyryder, Kia Seltos 2026 etc. Quite confused as to what will be a good balance of drivability and tech features and safety.

The best 5-seaters within a compact footprint are the Tata Sierra and the all-new Kia Seltos, mainly because of their spacious back seats which are good for three passengers. The Sierra is a good mix of a city and highway car. But in your case, since you are mainly going to be commuting in Mumbai, the Seltos with the 1.5 petrol and CVT gearbox will be the best. The Seltos is superbly equipped and a bit bigger than before, which makes it a very comfortable car.

Asked by: syed mohd maaz

I am loving the Harley X440 and want to buy it. Can you suggest if it is worth buying in terms of maintenance and resale value? If it’s not worth it, please suggest another similar option. I also like the RE Classic, but it is very common these days, so I want to consider another option similar to the Harley X440.

The Harley-Davidson X440 is built by Hero and is a simple motorcycle without too many complex parts or features. As such, it should largely be a decently affordable machine to live with by and large. Resale value is very subjective and is sensitive to the area you reside in, as well as a multitude of other factors. If you want something similar, bikes like the Honda CB350 models, Royal Enfield Meteor 350 and Triumph Speed 400 make for promising alternatives.Take a test ride before you decide to see which one fits you best.

Hi team, I’m planning on getting the BMW 450 GS when it is launched, but am worried about the maintenance cost. Can you share an estimate of how much I can expect to spend on maintenance over the years if I have a running of about 8,000 km a year? I’m an aggressive rider and mostly use it for weekday work commutes and occasional breakfast rides on weekends. Regards, Mohnish

There's no way to accurately portray how much the maintainance cost of the BMW F 450 GS will be, as it is yet to be launched. However, BMW bikes have a reputation for being a little pricey to live with, even the smaller 310s. You shouldn't expect the F 450 GS to be as easy on the wallet as its peers, like the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, KTM 390 Adventure models or even the Honda NX500. We recommend you wait a while before you buy the F 450 GS so that you can see thorough reviews of the bike. Also, you can speak to actual owners of the machine, and then make an informed decision.
