Of the three, we would recommend the Hyundai Exter , as it has a slightly smoother engine and gearbox combination than what the Tata Punch and Tiago offer, which will be helpful in the transition from manual to automatic for your wife.

Ask experts Latest questions Asked by: Harsh I’m a beginner rider, 5′6″ tall, planning to buy a new bike next year. My first choice is the Triumph Scrambler 400X - I’ve had my eyes on it since early 2024. However, I’m also considering the newly launched TVS RTX 300 because of its overall package, including a quick shifter and cruise control. I need the bike for daily office commutes, occasional weekend rides, and some soft trail riding. I won’t regret buying either, but I’d like to hear expert opinions to help decide. Both the bikes you have mentioned will fit the bill for your use case. However, both the Triumph Scrambler 400 X and the TVS Apache RTX 300 have tall seat heights (830mm or more), and for a new rider of your stature, they could feel like a little too much, especially at slow speeds and during off-roading. We would strongly recommend a test ride of both before you decide to go ahead with your purchase. If these two prove to be too tall for you, something more street-biased (and crucially, lower) like the Triumph Speed 400 or Apache RTR 310 from these respective brands would be a good fit. Asked by: Sriram I am planning to replace my existing Octavia (which is 8 years old) with an SUV. My budget is ₹20 lakh. My preferences, in order, are: 1. long-term reliability (10+ years), 2. build quality, 3. comfort & space, and 4. mileage. I have considered mid-size SUVs like Victoriq, Hyryder, Creta and Elevate - and I am more inclined toward the Elevate because it ticks all my priority boxes compared to the others. Before I proceed, am I missing anything important that I should evaluate? The Honda Elevate suits your requirements well. It is reliable, has a five-star JNCAP crash rating, offers a spacious and comfortable cabin, and its fuel efficiency should also be reasonable. You can also consider the Maruti Victoris Hybrid if your running is high. It delivers well on all the same points, and its fuel economy is exceptional. You can expect over 20 kmpl in the city and on the highway. Moreover, the naturally aspirated 1.5-litre engine of the Elevate may return about 30 to 35 percent lower efficiency.
