I am planning to buy the 8-seater Toyota Innova HyCross petrol variant, mainly for highway use. Could you advise on its mileage and also suggest any alternative vehicles within a ₹25 lakh budget?

Asked by: AMIT AGRAWAL
At your budget of ₹25 lakh, the Toyota Innova HyCross is the best 7-8 seater petrol MPV available, especially since you can get a high-spec HyCross GX (O) variant at that price.
However, the Innova Hycross petrol mileage is not very impressive. In our real-world test, it returned 6.9 km/l in the city and 12.4 km/l on the highway.
Since you plan to use it mainly on highways, we recommend considering the Toyota Innova Hycross Hybrid or choosing the Toyota Innova Crysta diesel to avoid high fuel expenses.

I am a first-time motorcycle rider, and I’m trying to decide between the Jawa 42 Bobber, Jawa Perak, Royal Enfield Meteor 350, Goan Classic 350, Triumph Speed 400, and Harley-Davidson X440. I’m 5'7”, 38 years old, and have a muscular build. Which of these bikes would be most suitable for me in terms of comfort, handling, and ease of riding? Also, do all of these bikes have an option for carrying a passenger comfortably?

First things first, the Jawa Perak and 42 Bobber are strictly single-seater bikes and have no provisions for carrying a pillion. These bikes are also rather stiff and uncomfortable, and we'd recommend steering clear unless you ride very little and mostly on smooth roads.Coming to the other options you've shortlisted, the Triumph Speed 400 will be the dynamically most capable machine and also the fastest one. On the other end of the spectrum, you'll have the laidback but charming Royal Enfield 350s with their easy riding and torque-rich experience.The Harley-Davidson X440 splits the difference between the Triumph and the REs. It all boils down to personal preference, so take a thorough test ride of everything you're considering before making a decision.

I am confused between the Royal Enfield Classic 350, Royal Enfield Meteor 350, and Triumph Speed T4. My maximum budget is ₹2.5 to 2.8 lakh. If possible, please suggest some customisation options within this budget. I live in Bhubaneswar, Odisha. Please help.

The choice of bike you should go with depends entirely on your riding style and requirements. The Triumph Speed T4 is the more capable and quicker machine of the three. And, if you spend a lot of time at highway speeds or want to do reasonably sporty riding, it will be a better fit.The Royal Enfield 350s are slow machines, but are soulful in a way few other bikes can emulate. If you enjoy a torque-rich, characterful, laidback and comfortable riding experience, the RE 350s are a great option. Take a test ride of both to see which one suits you best.

Asked by: Sudipta Ghosh

I drive my car myself and average about 30 km of city driving per day. I am confused between choosing a petrol or a hybrid car (excluding EVs and diesel). Which automatic car should I consider within a ₹25 lakh budget? I am open to either a sedan or an SUV.

With your kind of usage, a petrol automatic makes more sense; the higher upfront cost of a hybrid will offset any fuel efficiency benefit. In this budget, we recommend you go with the tried and tested Hyundai Creta Turbo DCT. It gives a mileage of around 12kph in the city, and around 15kph on highways. It is spacious and comfortable, and the ride quality is good for Indian city conditions.

I want to buy an automatic car with a budget of ₹10-15 lakh, mostly for city use and occasional highway driving. Please suggest.

For mostly city use with occasional highway drives, we would recommend you pick a car with a petrol engine. The Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos with the 115hp, 1.5-litre petrol engine and CVT automatic gearbox are the best options in this budget. Both SUVs are identical under the skin, so you should pick the one you like the look of more. They also have different interiors and slight feature differences. Both are also spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped, and the petrol-CVT combination is refined and smooth.
