You should consider bikes like the Triumph Speed 400, Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 and KTM 390 Duke for your mixed city / highway usage. The Speed 400 will be the best bike inside the city, but on the highway, post 90kph, it starts to feel strained, and vibrations start to creep in at some touch points.The KTM 390 Duke will be the least city-friendly bike - but still not bad at all in isolation - but with its powerful engine and great chassis, as well as standard-fit cruise control, it will be the most sorted on the highway. Do bear in mind that if you are a larger rider, the KTM will feel the most cramped of these three. The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 is a jack of all trades sort of bike, and its character is closer to the energetic Duke than the laidback Speed.A test ride of these three before you nail down your final purchase would be our advice.

Among the options you've shortlisted, the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and Honda CB350 H'ness will be the most comfortable bikes for two-up city riding. Both have spacious and generously padded split seats for both rider and pillion as well as a plush suspension setup, which should aid overall comfort.One thing to bear in mind is that the Honda CB350 H'ness is quite tall geared, which means you'll need to make more downshifts here than on the Classic, more so if the bike is carrying the weight of a passenger. This might result in a little more effort, and it's best you take a test ride of these two with your preferred pillion to see which bike fits you both best.

The Kia Seltos Petrol-IVT is an excellent midsize SUV that's modern, smooth and very comfortable. If you liked the overall experience, we'd suggest you go ahead with it.The HTK variant is good value for money, and is very well-equipped with LED headlamps, 17-inch alloys, cruise control, 10.25-inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, electric mirrors, rear AC vents, tyre pressure monitor and keyless entry with proximity sensors, among others. Yes, it misses automatic climate control, which is a glaring exclusion. However, as you've rightly pointed out, you will have to stretch a fair bit for the higher variants, and unless you really want the extra features, you could consider compromising on climate control and save your money by sticking to the HTK variant.

The Mahindra XUV 7XO is the most spacious and comfortable of the three options you are considering. The front seats are large and supportive, and the driver's seat is height-adjustable with soft cushioning and good support, which results in comfortable seating for taller adults. The rear seats are also very comfortable, and there is plenty of legroom and headroom for tall passengers. The 7XO is also the most powerful of the three options, and the 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine is very refined. It is also quite efficient, and you can expect a mileage of around 10-12kpl in the city and 14-16kpl on the highway.The Kia Seltos is a good option if you want a more compact SUV. It is not as spacious as the XUV 7XO, but it is still quite comfortable. The 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine is very refined and quite efficient. The Seltos is packed with features, but it just does not have the performance and comfort of the 7XO.The Renault Duster is the least spacious of the three options, and it is also the least powerful. We are yet to drive it, so we will reserve our comments until we do so. Overall, our pick would be the Mahindra XUV 7XO for its strong performance, excellent ride comfort, spacious interiors and a feature-rich cabin.
