The Mahindra XUV 3XO petrol automatic is a strong fit for your usage. Its smooth 6 speed automatic, light steering and compact footprint make it very easy to live with in the city, especially in traffic and tight parking conditions. Importantly, it already ticks your feature requirements, including a 360° camera, wireless Android Auto and CarPlay, and even ADAS, within your stretched budget of around Rs 14 lakh. It also feels reassuringly solid. The XUV range has built a good safety reputation, and the turbo petrol engine offers strong low end performance, making it well suited to both city driving and occasional highway runs.On the i20, while it remains a well rounded premium hatchback, the current version does miss out on features like a 360° camera and ADAS. There is talk of a facelift, but timelines are not confirmed, and it is unclear whether Hyundai will add these features, so waiting specifically for that may not guarantee what you are looking for.As for the upcoming Bayon, Hyundai is expected to bring it around September, but it will likely be a larger, around 4.3 metre crossover as a Maruti Suzuki Victoris rival and positioned below the Creta. That means it may not be as feature rich in the variants that fall within your budget. It could also end up competing more with mid size SUVs rather than sub 4 metre options.The Venue and Sonet are polished and easy to recommend, but the variants that offer both ADAS and a 360 degree camera tend to stretch well beyond Rs.14 lakh on road.

Coming from a Datsun Go, you'll probably appreciate a car that feels light, easy to manoeuvre and has a responsive engine rather than a large SUV. Given your relatively low monthly running of around 400km and the fact that most of your driving will be in Bengaluru, a petrol automatic makes the most sense.Our pick would be the Skoda Kylaq Signature AT. It is compact enough for city traffic, the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine feels genuinely peppy and the torque-converter automatic is smooth and easy to live with. It also offers a substantial upgrade over the Datsun in terms of safety, refinement and overall quality.If you prefer a hatchback, the Hyundai i20 IVT is worth considering. It is easy to drive in traffic, has a smooth and refined powertrain and offers a premium cabin. While it isn't as punchy as the Kylaq, it remains one of the best all-round city cars in this price range.As for the Hyundai Bayon, we wouldn't recommend delaying your purchase for it. Even if Hyundai decides to bring it to India, it is likely to be positioned above your budget and could end up closer to the Creta in terms of pricing.
