Dear team, I want a petrol automatic car with a spacious cabin, a five-star safety rating, good rear-seat comfort, easy driving manners and a responsive service network. A sunroof isn’t necessary. I’ll opt for BH registration, as I’m eligible for it. I’m considering: Kia Seltos HTK IVT: It has manual AC instead of automatic climate control. Is that acceptable? I’m also eligible for a corporate discount and a loyalty bonus. Honda Elevate VX CVT: It has all the essential features, but reviews say its infotainment screen is small and its camera feed quality is poor. Tata Sierra Pure L(O) DCT: I’m sceptical about the quality of Tata’s service centres. Please help me choose one.
The Kia Seltos HTK IVT would be our first recommendation over the Honda Elevate VX CVT. The Seltos feels like the more premium product of the two, with a better-quality cabin, a more refined engine and transmission combination, and a more sophisticated overall driving experience. Its 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine paired with the IVT is particularly smooth and well suited to city driving. The manual air conditioning in the HTK is a compromise, but it shouldn't be a deal-breaker if you are comfortable with conventional AC controls.The Honda Elevate VX CVT is also a sensible choice, with a spacious cabin, good rear-seat comfort and Honda's reputation for reliability. However, the Seltos has an advantage in perceived cabin quality and refinement.
Dear Team Autocar, I am planning to buy a mid-size petrol automatic SUV and have a monthly running of around 500km. I am currently considering the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder Neodrive G, Honda Elevate and Mahindra Scorpio. I have come across several online reports suggesting that a facelifted Toyota Hyryder could be launched soon. Could you confirm whether this is likely and, if so, provide an approximate launch timeline? I would also appreciate your guidance on choosing a vehicle that offers a low cost of ownership, affordable maintenance and better fuel efficiency. Thank you in advance for your suggestions.
The Toyota Hyryder facelift is still some time away. While there are reports suggesting an update in 2027, we haven't seen a convincing indication of an imminent launch, and there is no confirmed timeline from Toyota.We would suggest considering the current Toyota Hyryder Petrol G(O) Neodrive AT rather than waiting indefinitely. The 1.5-litre petrol engine and six-speed torque converter automatic make for a reliable, easy-to-own package, and with your relatively low monthly running of 500km. The Honda Elevate CVT is also worth considering if you prioritise a smoother drive and a more spacious cabin.The current Hyryder is also attracting attractive discounts, which are unlikely to be available on the facelift when it first arrives. Our advice would be to negotiate hard on the current model and buy it if you get a good deal, rather than wait for an update that is still some distance away.
improve the grammar and write it in a paragraph - Hi Autocar, Iam looking to book a car this week. I have narrowed it down to one of 3 cars. Petrol Automatic IVTs. My running is mostly going to be 95% city (office to work in Mumbai traffic). Daily commute is around 15km, so I don't want a turbo in traffic. That's roughly 5k annual running. I am 6ft tall so wouldn't want something that is cramped 1. New Seltos HTK(O) 2. New elevate VX 3. Bayon HX 8 All of these are close to the 16L ex showroom price. I've driven the Seltos and Elevate. I really liked both of them. The Seltos feels more premium from the inside and I feel like that is something worth having in a daily car. The elevate is brilliant, but it seems cheap on the inside. No pani sunroof too, although I would maybe use it 1 day in year, it's priced the same as the Seltos, so that felt a miss. I know Honda engines are top, but at my running and limited enthusiast journey, I'm not sure if that does justice to need. Now comes the bayon. I have not done a test drive yet as its not available, but the bayon pricing at Hx6 and hx8 seems very close to the Creta currently.. I am tempted to go for the hx8 as it as a 360 camera,( I think that might be usefull for parking etc as I am coming from a hatchback ) but I am getting a "lesser car" vs the Seltos here I wonder.. Which one would you recommend? I am keen on booking before diwali, will see if there are any discounts on the Seltos (unlikey though)
All things considered, the Kia Seltos is the better fit for your needs. Since you are on the taller side, you will appreciate the extra room it has to offer compared to the Hyundai Bayon. Opting for the Bayon does get you a higher variant with a 360-degree camera, which can be helpful in tight spots. However, once you get used to the size of the vehicle, you might find yourself using the camera less often.As for the Honda Elevate, as you rightly mentioned, the Seltos feels more premium inside and costs about the same. The Elevate does offer a bit more performance from its 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, but since 95% of your driving is in slow-moving Mumbai traffic, the added performance won't really make much of a difference.Overall, the Seltos is the right fit for your needs.
Honda's domestic sales grew in october despite a decline in overall sales. People are buying Honda too much, is it because of Elevate mainly?

My daily commute is around 15 km, so I don't want a turbo engine for bumper-to-bumper traffic. That comes out to roughly 5,000 km in annual running. I am 6 feet tall, so I wouldn't want something that feels cramped. New Seltos HTK+(O) New Elevate VX Bayon HX8 All of these are close to the Rs. 16 lakh ex-showroom price mark. I've driven the Seltos and the Elevate, and I really liked both of them. The Seltos feels more premium on the inside, which I feel is a feature worth having in a daily driver. The Elevate is brilliant, but it feels a bit cheap on the inside. It also lacks a panoramic sunroof; although I might use it only one day a year, given that it's priced the same as the Seltos, it feels like a miss. I know Honda engines are top-notch, but given my limited running and lack of driving enthusiast priorities, I'm not sure if that does justice to my needs. Now comes the Bayon. I haven't done a test drive yet as it is not available, but the Bayon pricing at the HX6 and HX8 trims seems very close to the Creta. I am tempted to go for the HX8 as it offers a 360-degree camera (which I think might be useful for parking since I am upgrading from a hatchback), but I wonder if I am getting a 'lesser car' compared to the Seltos. Which one would you recommend? I am keen on booking before Diwali and will see if there are any discounts on the Seltos (unlikely, though).
We would suggest going ahead with the Kia Seltos HTK(O) IVT. Given that you have already driven it and liked its cabin, it should make for a more satisfying daily companion. This Kia car feels more premium inside than both the Honda Elevate and the Hyundai Bayon, which is something you are likely to appreciate given your predominantly city usage. The naturally aspirated petrol engine and IVT combination should also work well in Mumbai traffic. This Honda car is a good alternative, particularly for its spacious cabin and refined engine, but its interiors do feel less premium.
