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

•1d

I am 34 years old and I currently own a Honda Amaze. I am planning to get a new car. My annual running is around 7000 km and 85% of the running is out of Mumbai. I wanted a sedan but that is not mandatory. I want to buy a car that I plan to keep for the next 10 years. I need a safe automatic car that has front ventilated seats with good after sales support. I like Hyundai Verna and Creta but I do not want to go for a Maruti or Tata car. My budget is 15 lakh that can be extended up to 19 lakh if the car is value for money. Which car do you suggest?

I am 36 years old and we are a family of 6 including 4 adults and 2 kids. I am looking for an automatic car under 25 lakh (on-road) that has low cost of ownership in the city of Ahmedabad. My yearly running is approximately 12000 km which includes 70% running in city and 30% running on highways. It should be fund to drive as I plan to own it for the next 8-10 years without worry. Please recommend me a car based on above criteria.

I have to buy a new SUV under a budget of Rs. 25 lakh. My running is 2500 km per month in Delhi - NCR with occasional long drive. My family wants XUV 7XO diesel. However, I do like new Kia Seltos diesel. Please guide.

Hello Autocar Team, I need your unbiased expert opinion before buying a new car. I am confused between Tata Altroz Pure CNG AMT quoted for Rs. 9.41 lakh (on-road price) and Tata Altroz Creative CNG Manual of which I am waiting for the final quotation. My budget is Rs. 10.5 lakh. I have been driving manual cars for the last 10 years, and my running is mostly in the Mumbai city traffic and production-location travel. I want a CNG car with good features, safety, comfort and long-term value for money. I am considering spending around Rs. 50,000 extra on the automatic gearbox versus choosing the Creative manual for its additional factory-fitted features. Which variant would you recommend for my usage, and why? I would really appreciate your honest advice before finalising the purchase. Thank you.

I am 6.1 ft tall, weigh 101 kg, and live in Pune (PCMC). My maximum budget is Rs 13 lakh on-road. My weekly city driving is limited to around 50 km, and I undertake a 250 km long drive once every three months. I also take an annual family trip of around 1,500 to 2,000 km from Pune to Delhi or Kerala. My main priorities are comfort, generous legroom and good under-thigh support, as my parents are tall too. Good mileage would be an added advantage. I prefer an automatic transmission, but I am open to a manual if there are no suitable automatic options. I am open to any fuel type, including petrol, diesel, CNG or electric. I am also willing to consider a used car manufactured in 2021 or later, provided it is in good condition. Could you please suggest the most suitable options for my requirements? Should I buy a car now or wait for any promising upcoming models in the market?

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.

The Innova Crysta is really a gem of an MPV car. It is very luxurious and comfortable with one of the most reliable engines. Its overall driveability is superior. However, it has a downside with its taxi looks and it misses an automatic transmission.
