Trending Questions on Cars under ₹25 Lakh - Answered by Autocar Experts

•6h

I have a budget of around Rs 14-15 lakh and am considering the Kia Syros EV with a 42kWh battery and the Tata Nexon EV Creative with a 45kWh battery. Which is the better choice? I am particularly concerned about the NMC battery chemistry in the Syros EV.

•20h

Dear Autocar team, I am planning to buy a petrol automatic SUV priced under Rs 20 lakh. I have been considering the Tata Sierra petrol automatic but am concerned about Tata's after-sales service. My key requirements are comfortable seating for four to five adults, a spacious midsize SUV rather than a compact SUV, strong safety standards and build quality, and modern features such as a 360-degree camera. Which options should I consider?

•1d

I am planning to upgrade from my Hyundai i10. My daily commute involves around 40km of driving in Chennai city, and I cover approximately 600km on the highway once a month. My budget is around Rs 13 lakh, and I want a reliable diesel car with good mileage and low maintenance costs. I prefer something practical without too many unnecessary features. Which options would suit my usage?

•3d

I am planning to buy a subcompact SUV with an on-road budget of up to Rs. 15 lakh in the NCR. The options I am considering are the Skoda Kylaq, Mahindra XUV 3XO, Hyundai Venue, Maruti Suzuki Brezza and Toyota Urban Cruiser Taisor. An automatic transmission is a necessity. I prefer a reliable car with good after-sales service, as I want to avoid frequent visits to service centres. Mileage is not a major concern, as my annual running will be less than 5,000 km. I am evaluating these options against the Skoda Kylaq Sportline, as I am concerned about the E20 fuel-related issues reported by other owners. Which car would you recommend for reliable and hassle-free ownership?

•1d

I am planning to buy a Maruti Suzuki Brezza, and my budget is Rs. 10-12 lakh. I am confused between a turbocharged and a naturally aspirated (NA) engine. I plan to keep the car for 8-10 years. My driving will mainly be in Gurugram, with a trip to Himachal Pradesh once every two months. Kindly suggest the best variant for my needs.

The Mahindra Scorpio 7XO AX7L version is a better choice, especially without ADAS. It hits the sweet spot for an upgrade.

Good car. Pros: Nice design and interior, next-gen electric vehicle, best in its segment, good performance, low maintenance, awesome road presence, safer than my previous car. Charge time is about 60 hours for 80%. Cons: Build quality is similar to Maruti e-Vitara, needs improvement, and it's priced over 8 lakh for the same platform as e-Vitara. Real range is around 330 km on a single charge, which is less than expected.

A very very good car , having all modern features. Suitable for all terrain drive and it's interior always have added extra energy to all it's seater. Mileage perspective is more than expectations and it is a good relief for customer. But it's higher model loaded with all , is lack of mat and mud flap, put the the customer in gusty mood as there's no scope of to make it fullfill from out side and ultimately make the new car filthy in rainy season.

Toyota Innova Crysta should be the choice as it's a gem of an MPV car. It's so comfortable, and the interiors feel plush. Innova Crysta also has immense road presence, brilliant body paint quality, excellent resale, and the most important aspect, which is its sheer engine reliability.
