I have a Maruti Baleno (2016) as our family car, which is good, but I am looking to replace it with a newer SUV. Although I read your column regularly, I am confused about which car to buy. I have a tight budget of ₹16-17 lakh and am looking to get maximum value for my money. So out of Seltos HTK, Duster (2026), Sierra, and Elevate, which one should I consider? My usage is 70% in the city and 30% on highways.
Your city-heavy usage benefits from its smooth and seamless powertrain, light controls and settled low‑speed ride, which make driving in traffic and parking less tiring. For weekend highway runs, it feels confident at 80-100 kph cruising speed and has enough room for 4 adults plus luggage. Within your budget, the Kia Seltos HTK gives you the core safety and convenience features without forcing you into pricier trims. The one thing you give up is advanced driver assistance (ADAS) on the HTK; those features start higher up the range.
Alternatively, if you prefer a simpler, no-frills package and prioritise easy ownership over features, consider the Honda Elevate V CVT.

I have read the recent comments about the Duster on your website, and I am impressed by the overall rating of the Duster. I am planning to purchase the 1L turbo manual version of Duster and seeking advice on the power delivery and torque. Is it sufficient for city drives and, very occasionally, driving on highways?
For your requirement, the 1.0-litre turbo petrol Renault Duster should be adequate for your usage, but there are a few things to keep in mind. Although we haven’t driven this engine in the Duster yet, we have experienced it in cars like the Renault Kiger and Nissan Magnite. In those cars, the engine feels peppy and responsive, especially in city conditions.
Now, the Duster is a larger and heavier car, so performance will take a slight hit compared to those smaller SUVs. However, for city driving, it should feel more than sufficient, and thanks to the turbo, it will still offer good low-end torque, making it easy to drive in traffic. On the highway, it should be able to keep up with fast-moving traffic comfortably, and overtaking should not feel stressful.
That said, we strongly recommend that you test drive the 1.0-litre version before deciding. Since it is a 3-cylinder engine, you may notice some vibration at idle and hard acceleration, something we have experienced in the Kiger and Magnite.
If your priority is smoothness and refinement, you can also consider options like the Tata Sierra, Hyundai Creta or Kia Seltos, which offer more refined petrol engines. However, in terms of outright punch and torque feel, the turbo Duster will still feel stronger.

I am strongly considering the Kia Seltos 1.5T iMT HTE(O). It fits my budget, offers good performance, and the features are reasonable. I am choosing iMT as my usage is 70% city driving in Bangalore and 30% highway.
Go for the Kia Seltos 1.5T iMT HTE(O). For 70% Bangalore city use and 30% highway runs, it blends strong turbo performance with clutchless convenience, 6 airbags, and practical space.
With 70/30 city-highway, the 6‑speed iMT suits Bengaluru traffic by removing the clutch while keeping manual control for open‑road stretches, and the turbo’s strong mid‑range helps quick gaps and overtakes, especially on the highway and open stretches. You do need to get used to the iMT, of course, and remember that it's not a very quick shifter, so you can't rush through shifts. That aside, it works very well, especially in normal, relaxed driving conditions.
The one thing you give up is a true automatic. You still shift gears yourself, which can feel tiring in prolonged 5-10 kph bumper‑to‑bumper crawls. Thus, if you want a fully automatic car, without the hassle of even shifting gears, consider the naturally aspirated 1.5-litre Seltos that's coupled to a CVT or IVT in Kia speak.
The engine and gearbox combo is quite smooth, and for everyday driving, it does really well. You will give up some power compared to the turbo engine, but your real-world efficiency could be higher as a turbo-petrol's efficiency is very sensitive to driving style.

I need some help in choosing my first car. I live in Hyderabad, in the IT area. My usage might be 60:40 city and highway. I’m looking for a top petrol automatic variant. I have evaluated the Kia Seltos, Hyundai Creta, and Tata Sierra, and narrowed it down to the Kia Seltos GTX(A) DCT variant. Recently, I saw the new Renault Duster and Skoda Kushaq as well. Can you suggest what I should do?
Since you have evaluated the Kia Seltos, Hyundai Creta and the Tata Sierra, it would be wise to check out the others in your shortlist too, namely the Renault Duster and the Skoda Kushaq. Checking out your options is always wise, especially when the purchase is of high value.
If interior space and features are a key criterion, then the Duster and Kushaq aren't really better off than the Seltos. However, where the Duster and the Kushaq are really good is if you enjoy driving, as both SUVs have responsive engines and provide an entertaining handling feel with good road grip and body control around corners.

I am replacing my 10-year-old manual transmission 1.5-litre diesel Creta, driven over 2 lakh km, due to the manual and the 10-year NCR policy. Which car should I buy? My driving is about 1,600 km per month, with 40 km daily in no-traffic city conditions and a long highway run of approximately 500 km per month. I am confused between the Creta petrol CVT and the Creta TC. I am also keen on the Kylaq, as most of the driving is done by a single person, with a 500 km run by me, my wife, and my 8-year, 3-year, and 3-month-old children.
The Hyundai Creta CVT is the pick of the vehicles on your shortlist. It has a very smooth engine and gearbox combination and is a full-size larger than the Skoda Kylaq. The larger cabin will prove to be more comfortable for your kids as they grow.
You could also consider the new Kia Seltos CVT. It's more refined, comfortable and spacious than the Creta. However, it is also significantly longer than the Creta, in case that is a concern for you.

I want to buy an SUV that will mostly be used for city commuting and occasional long drives once a month. Can you suggest which is the best among the new Seltos, Grand Vitara, Toyota Hyryder, Victoris, and Creta?
If you are looking for an all-rounder, the new Kia Seltos is the pick of the models on your shortlist. It's the most spacious, offers the best ride comfort and feels most upmarket too. The Kia Seltos 1.5 petrol NA with the IVT automatic gearbox is well-suited to your city-centric driving.
If fuel economy is your top priority, the strong hybrid versions of the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara and Victoris, and Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder fit the bill. The hybrid powertrain switches to EV mode, often allowing exceptional fuel economy numbers. The Victoris is the newest, best-equipped and most appealing of the three strong hybrid models.

I am currently driving a Hyundai i10 Era 2012 model with 61k on the odometer. I am the first owner, and these days my monthly driving is a maximum of 400 km. Now I am planning to purchase a new car. I mostly drive with family in 80% of cases, with 4 adults and 1 child, along with a fully loaded boot. My priorities are safety, mileage, and a good infotainment system. I drive 70% on highways and 30% in the city. I am open to both sub-4 metre and above-4 metre cars, and I prefer an SUV. Which car is best?
Since you will be travelling with four passengers, a child and luggage on most journeys, space is going to be a priority. In the sub-4 metre segment, nothing matches the interior volume of the Kia Syros. It comfortably seats five, and the rear seat in particular is roomy enough to rival some larger SUVs. The rear bench also slides, allowing you to balance passenger space and boot capacity as required.
Since you currently own a Hyundai, the Kia experience will feel familiar. Given your limited running, we would suggest opting for the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, which offers sufficient performance to haul your family and luggage.
If you are able to stretch to a midsize SUV, the Hyundai Creta or the Kia Seltos with their 1.5-litre naturally aspirated engines would also be good fits.

I am planning to buy the Kia Seltos 2026 diesel manual. I am confused between the HTK and HTX variants. I do not want the HTK(O). Is the ₹3 lakh difference in cost worth the upgrade? Or can I get the necessary aftermarket upgrades? I am not a fan of the sunroof and would prefer to avoid it. I would want front parking sensors, fog lamps, leather seats, and a good sound system.
It is always recommended to buy any vehicle with factory-fit features. In your case, the Kia Seltos HTX is worth the extra spend as it packs in all that you want (front parking sensors, fog lamps, leatherette upholstery and a Bose sound system) and more. Additional goodies on the HTX that will add greatly to your experience include auto climate control, front seat ventilation, an auto-dimming mirror and a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen.
Sure, you could get some upgrades as accessories, but these could impact the warranty. Improper fitment can also create electrical hazards. It is best to stick to accessories offered and fitted by the Kia dealer with a clear understanding on impact on warranty.

I am confused between the new Skoda Kushaq MT base model and the Seltos base model MT. Both come in a similar price bracket. Usage: Family, occasional driving, hardly 3 to 5k km in a year, as I already have one daily driving car. The Alto K10 was driven 22k km in 8 years, so the old car will remain. We are not selling it. The new car will be used on occasion. Road conditions: Mostly bad roads, rarely good roads.
Go for the Skoda Kushaq Active 1.0 TSI MT. Since you are going in for the base models, you will find the Kushaq a little better equipped with features like automatic climate control versus a manual AC on the Kia Seltos, rain-sensing wipers, rear defogger and a rear washer and wiper.
Also, for your 3-5k km a year on bad roads, it delivers a sturdier suspension, and the 1.0 TSI engine delivers a more than adequate level of performance. The one thing you give up is boot volume: Kushaq’s 385 litres versus Seltos’ 433 litres. However, the Kushaq boot is well-shaped, and you can easily get 6 cabin bags inside, which should be more than enough for your occasional family drives.

I’ve been driving a manual Hyundai Creta Petrol for the last six years and am now looking to upgrade to an automatic with better specifications and superior comfort. My driving split is roughly 75% city and 25% highway. I’m currently torn between the New Kia Seltos IVT (NA Petrol) and the Turbo Petrol DCT. As this will be my first automatic car, I’d appreciate insights on which gearbox better suits my heavy city usage versus occasional highway runs. Kindly suggest.
Since this will be your first automatic, the Kia Seltos IVT is the easier and more intuitive option to live with. In heavy city traffic, it is extremely smooth at low speeds, with no jerks or shift shocks, which makes daily driving far less tiring. The creep function is also very natural, so bumper-to-bumper traffic and parking become effortless.
The turbo petrol DCT, while a lot more powerful and engaging to drive, is better suited for highway use and enthusiastic driving. In city conditions, especially in stop-and-go traffic, it can feel a bit jerky compared to the IVT.
On the highway, the IVT paired with the naturally aspirated engine is still perfectly adequate for cruising at 90-100 kph, and for your usage, you are unlikely to fully benefit from the extra performance of the turbo.
