Hi team, I’m confused between the Toyota Glanza AMT and the Hyundai Exter IVT as my first car. Both fit my ₹10 lakh budget. My driving is split about 50% city and 50% highway, and I use the car roughly once a week. Please suggest which one offers lower maintenance and better overall performance.

Please note, the Hyundai Exter does not come with an IVT/CVT gearbox but an AMT. 

As for your query, the Toyota Glanza AMT is the one to buy. It's got a more powerful engine and delivers superior performance in both city and highway driving conditions. As an added plus, the Glanza also feels more upmarket than the Exter. The Glanza is also fuel-efficient and is known to be cost-effective to maintain, making it an easy pick of the two models on your shortlist.

Hi, I’m planning to buy my first car, which I won’t be driving regularly. My budget is under ₹14 lakh on-road. I’m looking for a fun-to-drive car and don’t need it to be family-focused. I’m open to both manual and automatic transmissions, whichever is more engaging to drive and fun.

The Skoda Kylaq will be the perfect choice for your requirements. It has a punchy 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine and is available in both a manual gearbox and a 6-speed torque converter automatic.The Kylaq has compact dimensions and has a well-balanced chassis that makes the car great fun to drive. The handling is particularly impressive, and it has a good build too. The Prestige variant in manual guise will fit in your budget, while the Signature+ AT variant works if you prefer the automatic.

I’m looking to buy a motorcycle with strong low-end torque. Which would be better among the Goan Classic 350, CB350, Harley-Davidson X440 T, and Royal Enfield Scram 440? My usage will mostly be in the city, with rare long rides, and I’m not concerned about top speed.

For city use among the bikes you're looking at, the top two would be the Royal Enfield Scram 440 and Harley-Davidson X440 T. These bikes have large, long-stroke, single-cylinder engines, which will have the edge over the smaller 350s you're looking at. However, if most of your usage is inside the city, we'd recommend sticking with the 350cc roadsters from either Royal Enfield - Hunter/ Classic / Bullet - or Honda - in the form of its CB350 trio. These bikes will have more than enough grunt for city traffic and will also return more fuel economy. Take a test ride of these to see which one suits you best.
