I am planning to buy a new car with an on-road budget of ₹40 lakh. I prefer sedans like the Octavia or Superb and can wait a year or two for the right car. What are my best options?
Sadly, there are no longer any sedans available near the Rs 40 lakh mark, thanks to low demand and a shift in preference to SUVs, and it's unlikely any will launch in the coming years as well. In fact, the ₹30-40 lakh segment has effectively become a dead zone in the market.
As for other body styles, you could look at two Stellantis SUVs - the Citroen C5 Aircross and the Jeep Meridian - which are very different takes on the premium SUV.
The Citroen is more fun to drive and comfortable with a smooth diesel engine, soft seats and excellent suspension. The Jeep feels more rugged and upmarket with great off-road ability, should you need it, and a luxurious cabin with the option of a third row. You could stretch your budget a bit and get a Skoda Kodiaq, which is the closest thing you'll get to a Superb for the time being.

I want to buy a new SUV around ₹20 lakhs as my primary car. I really love the shape of the Thar Roxx. I want a capable, punchy engine that gives a feeling of great pickup. Mileage is not an issue for me. Most driving will be in the city. Can you suggest an SUV and variant (diesel/petrol)?
Yes, the Mahindra Thar Roxx has an iconic shape that resembles the Jeep Wrangler and has a lot of appeal. If mileage is not an issue, then go for the 2-litre petrol automatic, which is smooth, responsive and has a good pick-up.
You don’t need a 4x4 for the city, and hence the rear-wheel-drive MX3 variant will suit you best.

I have been using my Jeep Compass Limited manual edition for the last 7 years. My daily usage is 50 km a day in the city and occasional highway journeys. I want a robust SUV with an automatic diesel engine and advanced safety features. My budget is between 25-45 lakhs. Please advise.
Check out the MG Gloster. The large 7-seater feels like a considerable step up from your Jeep Compass (or indeed its larger sibling, the Meridian) and comes with a smooth yet strong diesel engine and a smooth 8-speed automatic gearbox. And though it is large, its light controls make it manoeuvrable enough in the city.
This MG car also comes with a long list of features, which includes safety features like an ADAS suite, but that's in the higher variants, so you might have to increase your budget slightly for that.

Hi, I currently own a 2018 Baleno purchased in January 2019 and am now looking to upgrade. I am considering either a four-year-old Jeep Compass Petrol DCT or a demo Skoda Kylaq Prestige AT, both priced similarly. If I choose the Jeep, I plan to upgrade again before 2028 and get a bigger vehicle. My driving is mostly on highways, covering around 6,000-7,000 km annually. Please help me choose.
The Jeep Compass and the Skoda Kylaq are a few segments apart, but priced similarly in the used market, we understand your confusion. Both cars have very good highway manners, and in that sense, you would be happy in either.
If your highway trips also involve weekend holiday destinations in places which involve some level of off-road trails, then go with the Compass; if not, you'll be just fine with the Skoda Kylaq, which should also prove to be a bit more reliable in the long run.

I am planning to buy a reliable SUV with the highest safety ratings. I have always loved the Jeep Compass, but my mind is now inclined toward the Tata Sierra after its launch. My other dilemma is that my parents want a 7-seater and I’m confused. I don’t mind a 7-seater, but I mostly drive on narrow roads in Chennai and think a mid-size SUV might be more suitable. Should I wait for any upcoming car? Kindly suggest a vehicle.
We agree, Tata Sierra will be a good fit for driving in narrow city lanes. While the crash test ratings are not out yet, going by Tata Motors’ recent track record, it is expected to score well on safety.
The Sierra is also well equipped, offers a spacious cabin, and comes with multiple powertrain options. The one to go for is the 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine, which is a refined unit.
The Jeep Compass currently on sale in India has not received any significant updates in recent times. As a result, the interior now feels dated, especially when viewed alongside newer rivals.

I currently own a 2018 Jeep Compass 2.0 diesel manual. I am now looking for a comfortable petrol or hybrid automatic SUV that can match the driving dynamics of the Compass. I drive around 30 km daily in the city and love driving. Please suggest suitable options.
If you are looking for a petrol or hybrid automatic SUV that is as engaging to drive as your Jeep Compass, you will have to compromise on the comfort front.
The only SUVs that are comparable to the Compass in terms of driving pleasure are the Skoda Kushaq and the Volkswagen Taigun, but they aren't as big or as comfortable as the Compass. The Skoda Kushaq is due for an update very soon, while the Volkswagen Taigun can be had in a 1.5 turbo-petrol-manual combination, unlike the Skoda.
If you are willing to compromise on the driving pleasure front, the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos are the most comfortable options in the segment.

I need a fun-to-drive car, mostly for highways and long drives. We take one to two long drives (400-1000) monthly. Budget of 30to 40 lakhs. Looking for ICE due to EV charging issues.
Unfortunately, there are not many cars in the Rs 30-40 lakh range anymore, as the executive sedan segment has gone extinct, and most premium and luxury SUVs start closer to Rs 50 lakh. There is one good option for you in the form of the Jeep Meridian.
It's a premium SUV with a luxurious interior and a strong diesel engine with a smooth automatic gearbox. It works great out on the highway, with good stability and comfort, and while not outright fun to drive, it has a strong engine and sorted dynamics. You even get the option of five or seven-seat layouts for the interior.

I am planning to upgrade from an XUV700 to a Jeep Compass. Will it truly be an upgrade, and does it make sense? Is it worth it?
Moving to a Jeep Compass from an Mahindra XUV 700 will definitely not be an upgrade. The XUV 700 is more powerful, better equipped, a lot more spacious and practical and nicer to drive.
The only area where the Compass has an advantage is while off-roading where the suspension performs well and the dimensions help traverse tough terrain. Apart from that one plus point, you will not find the Compass as an upgrade to the XUV 700.

Hi, I have a 2017 Ford EcoSport Diesel Titanium, which served me well with hardly any issues. Now, I want to upgrade to a new or used car (open to both) with a budget of 12-20 lakh. I’m confused between the new or used Toyota Hyryder Hybrid, Tata Sierra, new Seltos, Thar Roxx petrol auto, or new/used Honda Elevate ZX CVT. I recently test-drove a used 2023 Jeep Compass S petrol auto, which I liked, but petrol is discontinued, and it’s only E10 compliant. What do you suggest, wait or buy now?
With a budget of Rs 20 lakh, your options in the used car market are endless - get the newest possible car you can find, preferably still in warranty. Being an EcoSport owner, it is natural to gravitate towards the Jeep Compass for its toughness and brilliant ride-handling balance.
You can look for a less-driven Mahindra XUV700 automatic for its well-roundedness. Out of the new options, the Tata Sierra seems promising and is worth waiting for before you finalize.

Hi team, I am planning to buy a new car next year. I currently own a Kia Sonet GTX Plus and now want to move to a 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder engine option. My budget is around ₹30 to 35 lakh maximum. I want strong performance, a good suspension setup, good handling and, most importantly, comfort for rear passengers and long drives. Kindly suggest which SUVs fit my budget. I have shortlisted the Jeep Compass Model S for its 4x4 option and the Mahindra XUV700 for its AWD option. I am open to other suggestions as well.
The Jeep Compass Model S is the more premium option, with a higher-quality interior and stronger badge value. However, it's also quite a bit more expensive when you consider the top 4x4 version, and most of all, for your requirements, the rear seat isn't all that spacious.
You should definitely go with the Mahindra XUV700 AWD, as it offers more space in the back as well as more features. Its 2.2-litre diesel engine is strong (and so is the 2.0 petrol, in case you're interested), and ride quality and handling are very good too.
If you can wait a little bit, a facelifted version of the XUV700 is arriving in early 2026, which should be improved in many areas, especially when it comes to features. In the meantime, check out our Tata Harrier vs Mahindra XUV700 vs Jeep Compass video.
