Asked by: Rijion Jan 8, 2026
Hi Autocar Expert, I am planning to purchase a new petrol automatic car. I request your advice on the same. I am confused between Creta & Victoris. My driving is limited to weekend city drives; once a month is 3 months out of the city. I am looking for a value for money option which can give me safety, comfort & driving pleasure.
The Maruti Suzuki Victoris is a good option for you. It is a spacious and comfortable 7-seater, and the petrol engine is refined and punchy. The automatic gearbox is smooth, and the ride quality is good too.
The Victoris is also very fuel-efficient, and the Maruti Suzuki service network is vast and reliable. The only downside is that the third row is best suited for kids.

I am planning to buy a new car. My monthly running is around 2,000-2,500km. I currently drive a 2019 Santro AMT. Diesel and EVs are not an option. Please suggest a reliable, fuel-efficient petrol automatic within a budget of ₹20-22 lakh.
Given your running, we'd recommend a petrol-electric hybrid which would meet your requirements for great efficiency and automatic transmission. Options within your budget include the Maruti Suzuki Victoris and Grand Vitara, Hyryder and Honda City Hybrid, all of which are reliable products.
The Maruti Suzuki Victoris is the newest and incorporates several improvements over the Grand Vitara and Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, with which it is closely related. The Victoris makes for a sensible choice, packing in plenty of features and great efficiency. However, boot space is limited on the hybrid and space at the back is also not great for an SUV/crossover of this size.
The Honda City Hybrid, in comparison, offers a better back seat experience and also more room for luggage. Do note, as good as the Honda City Hybrid is, it's not a very popular product, and this could impact resale when it's time to sell.

I can’t decide between the Maruti Suzuki Victoris and the all-new Kia Seltos. My budget is ₹20-24 lakh, and I am looking to upgrade to an SUV.
Both the Maruti Suzuki Victoris and the Kia new Seltos have their own strengths and are accomplished products.
If you want something that feels premium, has a refined engine, is comfortable for four adults, and offers a large boot, the Seltos is a good option. However, if your running is high and efficiency is a priority, it is hard to beat the Victoris Hybrid within your budget.
Not just on the highway but even in the city, you can expect over 20 kpl. If you are okay with the compromised boot space due to the hybrid battery, the Victoris will serve you well. While the Seltos does offer a refined diesel option, its efficiency does not come close to the Victoris Hybrid, especially with the torque converter automatic, which impacts fuel economy. Most modern diesel cars are also not as efficient as they used to be due to tightening emission norms.

Asked by: Omanakuttanon Jan 2, 2026
I want to buy a better premium car with comfortable back seats. I am choosing between the Hyundai Creta and Victorius, and since I will mainly drive in the city, I prefer a CVT. Please suggest which is better.
Yes, if your driving is primarily in the city, the combination of naturally aspirated petrol and a smooth automatic is the best option for you. Advantages of the Maruti Victoris are a slightly lower price and official fuel economy rating.
However, do note that the Victoris uses a 6-speed torque converter automatic, while the Hyundai Creta uses a CVT, and in real-world use, the CVT is likely to be more efficient. The Creta outscores the Victoris in most other areas, too, including your requirement of comfortable back seats, where the Victoris is lacking in space.
You could also check out the new Kia Seltos, which offers the same 1.5 petrol CVT powertrain as the Creta, but even better rear seat space and comfort.

Asked by: Vikram Kumaron Dec 30, 2025
I am planning to upgrade from a Wagon-R to an SUV and am confused between the Creta, Grand Vitara, and Hyryder. I am looking for good mileage, comfort, and solid build quality. Which of these would be the best fit?
If you want mileage, comfort, and good-built quality, you can go for Maruti Suzuki Victoris. It scored 5-star in B-NCAP, was launched recently, is feature-rich, and gets a hybrid powertrain that will give you better mileage. Though the strong Hybrid Victoris is on the pricier side.
Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara and subsequently Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder are expected to get an update soon, and that means your car will start looking dated very soon. Keeping these in mind, Maruti Suzuki Victoris is a better bet.
But if you want to choose only from the three you have mentioned, then go with the Hyundai Creta. The 2022 Creta tested by GNCAP scored 3 stars, but since then, Hyundai has launched the facelift and has also reinforced the exoskeleton. The facelift has not been tested by any crash test agency yet. This Hyundai car also offers a roomier cabin compared to the Grand Vitara or Hyryder.

Asked by: Vineeton Dec 29, 2025
Hello Team Autocar, I am planning to upgrade from my 2018 Honda Amaze. My monthly running is around 500 km, mostly within the city. I am looking for a mid-size SUV that is enjoyable to drive in the city and comfortable for occasional long trips, with a good cabin feel. My budget is between ₹13-16 lakh. I have shortlisted the Brezza but am exploring alternatives.
The Maruti Suzuki Brezza is a car you simply can't go wrong with; it delivers on all aspects - space, comfort, features, efficiency, reliability, and more. But this Maruti Suzuki car falls within the compact SUV category. If you're looking for something a touch larger, why not consider the Honda Elevate?
Being a Honda car, the ownership experience will be familiar and hassle-free. Moreover, the Elevate's excellent seat and ride comfort make it a great choice. Its 1.5-litre petrol engine is punchy, the seating position is high, and its cabin also feels quite upmarket. You could get the mid CVT version for its smoothness and convenience, or pick one of the higher manual trims that'll fall within your budget.

The above car was bought by my father. We are now looking for a new car with a budget of up to ₹14 lakh. He lives in a village in Jhunjhunu, Rajasthan. All male family members are close to 6 feet tall. We are looking for safety, comfort, and low maintenance. We have shortlisted the Victoris, Creta, the new Venue, or any option from Mahindra.
The Maruti Suzuki Victoris would be a natural upgrade from your Wagon R, especially since in remote areas, where Maruti’s widespread service is a significant advantage. The Victoris is reliable, well-built, and offers a smooth drive, which should satisfy your father.
The only possible deal breaker is the rear seat space, which is less spacious by mid-size SUV standards, especially in terms of headroom. This could be a problem for tall family members, especially if everyone is travelling together.
Please take a test drive and make a point of checking the cabin space before making the purchase. A slightly more spacious alternative is the Hyundai Creta, which is also a tried-and-tested model. The Hyundai Venue is too cramped, and the Mahindra options are larger but not as user-friendly.

Asked by: Piyushon Dec 26, 2025
I currently own a Tata Nexon XZ+ petrol manual. My daily run is about 20km. Additionally, I travel around 350km fortnightly to my parents' place. After the introduction of E20 fuel, mileage has dropped from 13-14 kmpl to 10-11 kmpl. I am planning to upgrade to a hybrid. Based on my running, could you suggest the best options below 20 lakh?
We would suggest opting for the Maruti Suzuki Victoris ZXi variant, as it falls just under Rs 20 lakh on road in Vadodara, where you are based. The Victoris is very well priced, and even though the ZXi is a mid-spec variant, it comes well-equipped with all the essential features.
More importantly, in terms of Victoris' mileage, you can expect over 20 kpl not just in the city but on the highway as well, which is almost double what you are currently getting with your Tata Nexon.
Do note that this Maruti car does not come with a spare wheel as standard and instead gets a puncture repair kit, with a space saver spare available as an optional extra. The boot space is also slightly compromised due to the hybrid battery mounted under the boot floor.

My daily running is 60km (50% highway and 50% city). I am confused between buying a Hyundai Creta diesel or an EV. My budget is ₹20 to 22 lakh. Please suggest.
The Hyundai Creta diesel is a strong option for your needs. The 1.5 litre engine is refined, offers a good balance of performance and fuel efficiency, and suits highway heavy usage well. The Creta is also spacious and comfortable for long drives.
Within your budget, you could also consider the Maruti Suzuki Victoris Hybrid. It will be significantly more fuel efficient than the Hyundai car and is a very cost-efficient choice for your running. The only downside is the smaller boot, as the battery pack eats into luggage space.
An EV is another sensible and cost-effective option, especially if you have home charging. In your budget, you can look at the Vinfast VF6 or the Tata Nexon EV.

Asked by: Ravi kumaron Dec 23, 2025
I plan to purchase a car next June with a budget of up to ₹17 lakh on-road. Should I choose the Maruti Suzuki Victoris, Tata Sierra, or the new Kia Seltos?
Without knowing further requirements, it is hard to recommend the ideal pick for you. However, we feel the New Kia Seltos will be the best pick in your budget.
Prices will only be announced on January 2, but assuming a reasonable increase over current model prices, you should be able to get a decently equipped model within Rs 17 lakh. The Seltos has the edge over the other two with a far superior naturally-aspirated petrol engine. The Seltos also scores for space.
The Maruti Suzuki Victoris is a sensible package and is good value. However, the dull engine and relatively small cabin mark it down. Tata's Sierra is the roomiest of the three options, but versions within your budget miss many features that you'd expect.
The bigger issue is that the Sierra's 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine feels underpowered, and performance is disappointing.
