Asked by: Shamsuddin Sultanon Jan 21, 2026

My monthly usage is around 500km, mostly suburban driving. Which car should I buy that is fuel-efficient and easy to maintain? My budget is Rs 6 lakh.

In your tight budget, the Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 VXi makes the most sense. It is fuel-efficient, easy to drive, has a well-tuned AMT gearbox, and is very easy to maintain. Maruti’s wide service network keeps ownership stress-free.
If you want a slightly roomier and more practical car, the Maruti Celerio is a good alternative, though you may need to stretch your budget by around Rs 50,000 to get the VXi variant with AMT.

Asked by: Ashish Mathewon Jan 16, 2026

I am 42 years old and recently suffered a slipped disc, so I can no longer drive a manual car. I want to buy a used automatic car with a budget of ₹3 to ₹4 lakh that offers decent mileage. Please suggest.

Since your budget is limited to Rs 4 lakh, you will have to look at a used car. We suggest you look at the Maruti Suzuki Wagon R AMT. This Maruti car is a spacious and practical hatchback that is easy to drive and own. The 1.0-litre engine is peppy and efficient, and the AMT gearbox is smooth and easy to use.
You can also look at the Maruti Suzuki Celerio AMT. It is a smaller car than the Wagon R, but it is also quite practical and efficient.

Asked by: Mitali patelon Jan 15, 2026

I am looking for an automatic electric car under ₹13 lakh. My daily commute is around 40km. Which EV should I buy?

There aren't too many electric cars below the Rs 13 lakh mark, just the MG Comet, the Tata Tiago EV, and the Tata Punch EV.
If you plan to keep your current Maruti Suzuki Celerio, the MG Comet will do well as an intra-city commuter and as a good second car. However, if you need this as a primary car, we would recommend the electric Tata Punch. The four doors make it more practical, and the larger wheels and better high-speed performance give you the flexibility to take it on small trips out of the city too.
You will get the medium range within your budget, but if you can stretch it, the long range would make good sense as a primary car.

I’m looking for an economical and comfortable car for city use. My daily commute is around 45km, and my budget is up to ₹7 lakh. Please suggest suitable options.

The Maruti Suzuki Celerio is a good option to consider. It is spacious, comfortable, and easy to drive. The 1.0-litre petrol engine is peppy and efficient, and the car is also available with a CNG option.
The other option is the Maruti Suzuki Wagon R with the 1.2-litre petrol engine. It is good on space, comfortable for the city, and highly efficient too. The ZXi variant will fit in your Rs 7 lakh budget.

Asked by: Arun Davidon Jan 12, 2026

I need an automatic car within a budget of ₹7.5 lakh, and I prefer Maruti Suzuki. Could you please suggest some options?

You should choose between the Maruti Suzuki Ignis Zeta AMT and the Maruti Suzuki Wagon R 1.2 AMT ZXI Plus. Both models are powered by 1.2-litre petrol engines that give them a power advantage over other automatic Marutis in your budget (namely, Celerio, Alto K10 and S-Presso).

Both use automated manual transmission or AMT-type automatics. While these aren't the slickest automatic gearboxes, Maruti's AMTs work smoothly enough if you adopt an easygoing driving style. Fuel economy is also excellent.  

Of the two, the Wagon R is more spacious and has a more absorbent ride comfort. On the other hand, the Ignis packs in more features for the same money. If cabin space isn't a deal breaker, opt for the Ignis.

Asked by: Parthaon Jan 7, 2026

I am a new driver looking to buy my first car. My initial driving will be in the city, but I also want to take the car on highways and hills eventually. Should I first get a used car to improve my driving for a year or two, or can I directly buy a new one? The Baleno is my choice, but I would love more suggestions. My budget is around ₹10 lakhs.

Yes, if you are very unsure about your driving, then a used car would be better. 

You could look at a Maruti Celerio, which is a compact car and has very light controls. The view outside is also good, so getting familiar with driving will be easy in this car. 

However, if you think you will get confident pretty soon, then yes, a Maruti Baleno will be just fine, or we would suggest you look at the Fronx. It is essentially based on the Baleno, so you will get the same amount of interior space. 

Moreover, you will get the same powertrain but with a lifted body and better ground clearance, which will help you in case your drives to the hills involve some bad roads.

Asked by: Kumaron Dec 31, 2025

I am a 60-year-old retired senior citizen. I am looking for a car for long trips of 20-25 days at a time to visit India’s religious, cultural, and historical places with my wife. I plan to drive a maximum of 200-250 km in a day with two to three halts. Please suggest a car that requires less effort to drive, is safe, fuel-efficient, and low in maintenance within a low budget. I am used to driving a two-wheeler, and this will be my first four-wheeler.

We would recommend you look at the Maruti Suzuki Celerio. The Celerio will deliver well on the mileage and maintenance front, and it is also very easy to drive with a compact footprint, light controls and a good view outside. The car also secured a 3-star rating in the GNCAP crash tests, which is just about ok. 

If you'd like something better on this front, consider the Tata Tiago, which fares better with a 4-star rating. It offers a slightly better ride quality and stability at speed, but bear in mind the mileage will not be as good as the Maruti Celerio. Also, Tata dealers are not known to be very good with service.

Asked by: Piyali Banerjeeon Dec 28, 2025

I am a 4 feet 9 inches woman and need a car to travel to my office, which is 20 km from my home. The daily commute will be about 40 km. Please suggest a budget car within ₹6 lakh that is comfortable and adjustable for my height.

The Maruti Celerio would be a good option for you. It isn't a tall car, so getting in and out is easy, but despite that, the view outside is good. The top-spec car has height adjustment for the driver's seat, and we recommend that you sit inside this variant to see how it suits you. 

It would be slightly above your Rs 6 lakh budget, but with some year-end dealer offers, you could get it below that mark.

Asked by: Ypon Dec 25, 2025

I am a senior citizen and want a small, comfortable car. Please suggest the best options.

We are not sure of your budget, so at the lower end, we recommend the Maruti Suzuki Celerio. The car is easy to get into and out of, it's comfy inside, and its overall light controls, like the steering and clutch, make it very easy and friendly to drive. The ride quality is also good, as is the space; however, bear in mind that three abreast at the rear is tight.
At a higher budget, you could consider the Skoda Kylaq automatic as the gearbox is a torque convertor unit, which is the smoothest type around. This Skoda car is also compact enough for the city. Avoid the manual version, as the clutch and gear shifts are not particularly light.
