Hello Team Autocar, I am planning to upgrade from my 2018 Honda Amaze. My monthly running is around 500 km, mostly within the city. I am looking for a mid-size SUV that is enjoyable to drive in the city and comfortable for occasional long trips, with a good cabin feel. My budget is between ₹13-16 lakh. I have shortlisted the Brezza but am exploring alternatives.

Asked by: Vineet
The Maruti Suzuki Brezza is a car you simply can't go wrong with; it delivers on all aspects - space, comfort, features, efficiency, reliability, and more. But this Maruti Suzuki car falls within the compact SUV category. If you're looking for something a touch larger, why not consider the Honda Elevate?
Being a Honda car, the ownership experience will be familiar and hassle-free. Moreover, the Elevate's excellent seat and ride comfort make it a great choice. Its 1.5-litre petrol engine is punchy, the seating position is high, and its cabin also feels quite upmarket. You could get the mid CVT version for its smoothness and convenience, or pick one of the higher manual trims that'll fall within your budget.
If not the Honda Elevate, a Maruti Suzuki Victoris will also be a good upgrade from an Amaze.

I live in Pune and am looking for an automatic car under ₹25 lakh in India that offers a strong engine, loaded features, and is well suited for mostly city driving with occasional highway use.

Since 80% of your driving will be in city conditions, a smooth driving experience is also something you must give due weightage to. The Kia Seltos IVT and Hyundai Creta IVT deliver that, and top our list of recommendations for you. Sure, the 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine's 115hp isn't great, but real-world performance is actually very nice with brisk acceleration and very smooth responses. The CVT (IVT, as Hyundai and Kia call the gearbox type) is also very smooth. Also, it is free from the rubberband effect (sharp rise in revs without a significant rise in road speed), which this type of gearbox is usually notorious for. Of the two models, it's the new Kia Seltos that's the more wholesome package, offering more rear seat space and better ride comfort. Your budget allows you to go for a higher trim level, getting you lots of tech and comfort features.

Asked by: Vivek Joshi

I want a new petrol car with good safety features and an excellent music system, and I’m confused between the Mahindra 3XO and Tata Nexon. Which one should I choose?

Both the Tata Nexon and Mahindra 3XO are tough-feeling and robust compact SUVs, and both boast 5-star Global NCAP safety ratings. Both models also get branded audio systems, though it's advisable to test them out for your preferences. Of the two models, it's the Mahindra 3XO that's the more complete package. It's better finished, better equipped and more spacious than the Tata Nexon. What also tips the ratings in favour of the Mahindra is its punchier petrol engine and slicker gearboxes - both manual and automatic. Where the 3XO loses out is in luggage capacity, offering less room than you'd get in a Nexon.
