My budget is ₹10-11 lakh, and this will be my first car. My monthly driving will be less than 200km. Please suggest a suitable option.
Without knowing other requirements, it is hard to pinpoint the ideal car for you. However, given that you are a new driver, we will give greater weightage to ease of use and hassle-free ownership. Based on body style, here are a few suitable options to consider:
- Hatchback: Maruti Suzuki Swift
- Compact sedan: Honda Amaze, Maruti Suzuki Dzire
- Compact SUV/Crossover: Maruti Suzuki Fronx, Maruti Suzuki Brezza, Hyundai Exter

I am planning to buy a new AMT car with a total budget of ₹10 lakh, including insurance and road tax. My driving will be a mix of city and highway use, and I need good mileage. I travel up to 1,200 km per month. Please suggest a suitable option.
We would recommend the Hyundai Exter for several reasons. Firstly, it's the best AMT in its class and has less ‘head nod’ because the typical interruption of power between gearshifts is the least of all AMTs. The ride and handling are quite good, and the Exter feels quite planted for its size on the highway, whilst in the city it’s nice and manoeuvrable. Lastly, it has a well-equipped cabin that makes the most of the space.

We recommend the Hyundai Exter, a very well-rounded compact car with a refined engine, good features, and the AMT is the smoothest in the segment. The ride and handling are also excellent, and being a crossover, it has good ground clearance too to make easy work of bad roads, both on the highway and in the city. The Hyundai Exter SX variant will fit your budget.

Asked by: Siddharth Rajeevon Dec 8, 2025
Hi Autocar team, I am an amateur driver looking to buy my first car. I am planning to buy an automatic (AMT) car with a budget of ₹11 lakh in Bangalore. I will be driving this car 85% of the time in bumper-to-bumper city traffic. I am confused between the Toyota Glanza and the Hyundai Exter top variants. My top priorities are ease of driving for a new learner and decent city mileage. I know each car has its strengths, but which one do you think I should choose?
Those are both excellent options, and as you said, each has its strengths. The Hyundai Exter has the advantage of a taller seating position and a more compact overall footprint, both of which should serve you well as an amateur driver. Since that is your main priority, the Exter should be your pick, as mileage too will be good (ARAI rating of 19.2kpl), although not quite as good as the Glanza (ARAI rating of 22.94kpl).
The Toyota Glanza has a more premium and spacious interior, and a few more features too, but if that is lower down on your priority list, then stick with the Exter.

My Wagon R has run 70,000 km in 3 years. I now want to buy a new car. Please suggest a car that offers good mileage and comfort. I am 6 feet tall, and my budget is Rs 10 lakh.
You could look at a Tata Punch CNG, which is a high-riding sub-compact SUV with an excellent driving position. It also feels tough and confident over bad roads.
The other option you must check out is the Hyundai Exter CNG Duo, which is smoother, more refined, and delivers slightly better performance than the Punch.

Asked by: John Jayant Mon Dec 2, 2025
My parents (both 62) want to replace their old Spark with a new car. Requirements: automatic transmission, high ground clearance, good mileage, a refined engine, and reliable service. They’ve shortlisted the Tata Exter (4-cyl) and Tata Punch (3-cyl). Their concerns are the Punch’s 3-cylinder engine and service, and the Exter’s lack of body-safety ratings. They prefer a compact, easy-to-handle car (not bulky). Budget is under ₹10 lakh on-road. Any other recommendations?
As you've mentioned, the Hyundai Exter is the smoother and more refined car of the two, thanks to its four-cylinder petrol engine.
Its transmission is also relatively more seamless, and overall, Hyundai cars have a better reputation for their sales and support network too.
Other options you could shortlist are the Maruti Fronx or Toyota Urban Cruiser Taisor 1.2 petrol AMT.

Please advise me on replacing my existing Santro Xing with a new automatic car. I am 66 years old and drive around 500 km a month.
Get a Maruti Suzuki Wagon R AMT. Its tall-boy design makes getting in and out easy; furthermore, visibility all around is good, getting a judgment of all the corners of the car is a breeze thanks to its boxy body, and its light steering makes it very easy to drive and maneuver.
But if you want to upgrade within the Hyundai family, consider the Hyundai Exter AMT for its smoothness and tall stance.

Asked by: M Ravion Nov 27, 2025
I drive about 300 km weekly on the highway and 150–200 km in the city. I need a car with better mileage than the Ignis, good comfort, strong safety, and ample boot space. I’m open to CNG but not electric. My budget is ₹10-12 lakh. What do you advise?
The CNG Hyundai Exter would be a good option for you. The CNG setup consists of dual tanks that fit under the boot floor, thus you will still have a usable boot.
The seats are a bit firm, and the cabin is narrow, so if space and comfort are also very important, you can look at the Tata Nexon CNG. It too has a dual CNG setup below the boot floor, and the cabin is roomier than the Exter. The ride too is comfy and well composed at highway speeds.

Asked by: varun sachdevon Nov 27, 2025
I am looking to buy a petrol automatic car with a budget of up to ₹8 lakh. I travel about 90 km daily in heavy city traffic (Gurgaon–Noida). Is the Hyundai Exter a good option, or can you suggest a better alternative, as mileage is a priority? I’m not interested in cars as small as the Celerio.
The Hyundai Exter is a good all-rounder and will be a nice upgrade from your existing Maruti Wagon R. However, considering you drive a lot in peak traffic, an automatic would be ideal, so you could consider stretching your budget for the automatic version of the Exter.
However, if you want to stick closer to your 8 lakh budget, consider the Renault Kiger 1.0-litre naturally aspirated engine. The automatic version would be only slightly above the 8 lakh mark, but you will get a car that is compact enough for the city, spacious inside, and has a good ride.
In both cases, the gearbox will be an automated manual (AMT), so there will not be a significant mileage difference compared to the manual versions.

Asked by: Mehadi Masum Malon Nov 25, 2025
I want to buy my first car. I am 43 years old. I have booked a pre-owned Hyundai i20 Sportz, 2023 registration, which has only run 9,500 km and has no dents or major scratches, at Rs 6.35 lakh. At the same time, if I spend Rs 2 lakh more, I can get a new Hyundai Exter SX model at Rs 8.35 lakh. What should I do? Should I buy the pre-owned i20 or the new Exter at Rs 8.35 lakh? Please reply this time.
If you don't mind owning a pre-owned car, and have thoroughly checked the vehicle for accident, flood, or any other damages, the i20 will feel like a much superior car than the Hyundai Exter - its quality is better, its cabin is more spacious, and it feels more confident while driving too.
We'd suggest going ahead with the 2023 Hyundai i20. You could also consider extending its warranty for added peace of mind.
