I'm planning to buy the Honda V CVT and put CNG in it through the dealer. It won't void my warranty. Will it interfere with the Honda Sensing system (ADAS)?

The Honda Elevate is a good option for your needs. The 1.5-litre petrol engine is smooth and refined, and the CVT automatic gearbox is well-suited to city driving. The car is spacious and comfortable, and the ZX variant is well-equipped too. However, in comparison to the Seltos, it does not have the space or the modernity, and the cabin does not feel as plush.The Kia Seltos HTK with the CVT gearbox is the best option considering all your needs. It is a lot better-equipped than the Honda, has a better ride quality, and the engine has a lot more punch and strong performance while still being easy to drive in the city. The smoothness, refinement and ease of use are why the Seltos will be our recommendation.The Skoda Kushaq is a good option, too. The 1.0-litre TSI engine is quite efficient, but it is not as smooth as the 1.5-litre engines of the Honda and Kia. The facelift that was recently revealed will be launched in a few days, but it hasn't changed much in the rear seat space, where it is still not as spacious as the Seltos. So we would advise you to shortlist the Seltos.

Why don't you consider the Skoda Kushaq facelift instead? Being part of the VW group, the Kushaq will be a natural upgrade from your Polo - it is well-built, well-equipped and it drives well too. Both its engines (1.0L and 1.5L) deliver good performance. This should be high up on your shortlist.The Honda Elevate is a no nonsense option with excellent ride comfort, and a strong naturally aspirated petrol engine. The seating position is good, and it is nice to drive too. Refinement however isn't its strong suit.The Renault Duster also looks like a good option but we'll reserve our judgements till we actually drive it extensively.

It is quite common for dealerships to offer early delivery even if the originally promised waiting period was longer. This usually happens because a car that was allocated to another customer gets cancelled or becomes available earlier than expected.In many cases, the exact same car you booked may have already reached the dealer’s stockyard or was originally allotted to another customer who cancelled their booking. When that happens, the dealer typically offers that vehicle to the next customer in line. This is a normal practice and does not necessarily mean the car is faulty or rejected.If you are still doubtful, you can ask the dealer if you can inspect the car in the stockyard before the registration process begins. Once the car is registered in your name, there is very little that can be done if you later find something you are unhappy with.
