Go for the Hyundai i20 Sportz CVT. For your usage of 1,500-1,600 km a month in heavy city traffic, the CVT automatic is the key advantage. It delivers a much smoother, more seamless driving experience in stop-and-go conditions than the Baleno's AMT, which can feel jerky during gear changes. The i20 also feels more premium inside and offers a more refined overall package. The Baleno Zeta AMT is the more fuel-efficient option and a solid, reliable first car, but the mileage difference isn't significant enough to outweigh the comfort and smoothness of the i20 CVT for your usage. For a first car focused on city driving, the Hyundai car mentioned above is the better choice.

If you want to buy now, go for the current Glanza G. We are yet to drive the new Baleno with its three-cylinder engine, but going by our experience with the Swift, it is unlikely to be as smooth as the existing four-cylinder unit, and performance is likely to take a small hit as well.The new Baleno does get more features, which is something to keep in mind, but if engine refinement and performance are important, the current Glanza's four-cylinder engine has the advantage.There is also an important timing factor with the Glanza. The current Glanza has not received the update yet, but the facelift is due to launch on October 14 and will also move to the new 1.2-litre three-cylinder engine. So, if you specifically want the smoother four-cylinder engine, this is effectively your last opportunity to buy the current Glanza.

Since your diesel Baleno is nearing 10 years, and you're being offered Rs 3-3.5 lakhs for it, it makes sense to sell it. Keeping your usage in mind, we'd recommend you to shortlist the Maruti Suzuki Brezza CNG and the Mahindra XUV 3XO Diesel. Both these are very sensible, comfortable choices, and are likely to return strong efficiency. The Mahindra has an edge as far as performance goes. In summary, if you don't mind the long CNG queues at refilling pumps, the Brezza CNG will be an economical option, which is further backed by Maruti's widespread network. However, if you want a fill-it, shut-it, forget-in option the XUV 3XO diesel is a good choice.
