Trending Questions on Maruti Suzuki Cars - Answered by Autocar Experts
Which SUV under โน12 lakh would you recommend for a family of four with low monthly usage and heavy city driving, but also occasional long highway trips, specifically prioritizing 5-star safety, high ride comfort, and a reliable engine that is easy to maintain with minimal service center visits?
I am planning to buy my first car. My budget is a maximum of โน7 lakh. I am thinking of Ignis, but I am also confused, as it has not received any major updates in a long time.
What is the advantage of buying a four-cylinder car? Which car is good for rear-seat comfort? My budget is below โน12 lakh.
Namaste Team. I own a Wagon R VXI 2015 and now wish to upgrade. We are a family of five, and my monthly driving is not more than 600 km. I am a driving enthusiast, and my budget is โน13 lakh on-road. I do not want to consider Tata. My family has been associated with Maruti Suzuki for the past 30 years, but I am open to other brands.
I am looking to buy a 5+2-seater automatic petrol. I previously owned an Ertiga ZXi+. Now I want to upgrade to something a step above the Ertiga. I have considered the XUV 7XO, Clavis, Alcazar, Safari, and HyCross. My driving is mainly in the city, with highway trips during holidays. Hence, I prefer petrol.
I own a 2018 Maruti Swift petrol manual. I am now looking for a bigger car with good ground clearance and better fuel efficiency. My daily commute is about 25 km. I liked the Tata Sierra. Should I wait for the Sierra EV or consider hybrids like the Grand Vitara? Hybrids come at a higher premium. Are they worth it, or should I go for an EV?
My maximum budget is โน23 lakh, and I will be driving mainly in the city for about 1800-2000 km per month. I am comparing the Tata Harrier (petrol automatic) with the Skoda Kushaq (petrol automatic with DSG). Which variant should I choose for my usage?
Since your running is quite high and that too in the city, a strong hybrid powertrain would be a good option to consider. The Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara or the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder are mid-size SUVs with a strong hybrid powertrain and are excellent in the city. The battery and motor provide enough power for everyday driving, and they offer good ride comfort too.
That said, if you do not prefer a strong-hybrid SUV, the new updated Skoda Kushaq will be launching soon. It gets the same engine as before, but the 1.0-litre TSI motor will not get an 8-speed automatic instead. If you are a keen driver and enjoy getting behind the wheel, the Kushaq would be a better choice.
We would recommend that you wait for the launch. The Tata Harrier just got a new petrol engine, which is refined, but it's a bit too big for the city and isn't as polished as the Kushaq.
Hey everyone, I'm a first-time buyer and a new driver looking for a car for my family of 5. I'm 6 ft tall, so space and comfort are important. My budget is around โน12 lakhs, and safety is my biggest priority. Any recommendations would be really helpful!
I am looking for a petrol hatchback or compact SUV for Delhi and frequent travels to Himachal and Uttarakhand. Not for off-roading, but have to navigate through narrow mountain village roads, so need a compact car. I currently have an Ignis AMT Delta, which has served me well due to its power-to-weight ratio. The only problem was suspension.
I am an NRI based in Dubai, looking to purchase an automatic SUV for my home in Kasaragod, Kerala. I will be using when I visit couple of times in a year and the car will be primarily used by my sister for local shopping and local commutes, but will also remain idle sometimes. Between the Skoda Kylaq Prestige Plus (1.0 TSI with 6-speed Torque Converter) and the Hyundai Venue HX8 (1.0 Turbo with 7-speed DCT), which powertrain is more mechanically durable for a 10-year ownership cycle? Is buying new punch ev also makes sense? Iโm open to other suggestions as well.
All modern cars today, if maintained well, are engineered to last 10 years or more. Over that period, you should budget for both scheduled services and some wear-and-tear replacements. Given your usage pattern with limited annual running and long idle periods, the way the powertrain behaves when used sparingly becomes more important. Since most of your trips are short and local in Kasaragod, outright performance is less critical than smooth and reliable operation.
Between the Skoda Kylaq Prestige Plus (1.0 TSI with 6-speed torque converter) and the Hyundai Venue HX8 (1.0 Turbo with 7-speed DCT), both should serve you well if maintained properly. However, purely from a mechanical durability standpoint, a conventional torque converter automatic, like the one in the Kylaq, is generally more tolerant of stop-go driving and long-term ownership than a dual-clutch transmission (DCT).
DCTs offer quicker shifts and better efficiency, but they are more complex and can be sensitive to heat and crawling traffic. This is something your sister is likely to encounter in town driving. Over a 10-year horizon, especially with intermittent usage and possible long idle periods, the simpler torque converter setup is typically the safer bet.
That said, both cars use small turbo-petrol engines. Modern turbo engines are reliable, but they are inherently more complex than naturally aspirated (NA) engines. It is due to additional components like the turbocharger and intercooler. If absolute long-term peace of mind is your priority, you could also consider the Maruti Suzuki Brezza, which comes with a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine paired to a 6-speed torque converter. An NA engine is mechanically simpler and, in theory, better suited to low annual running and long ownership.
As for the Tata Punch EV, it is an excellent value for money as an EV. However, in your specific case, it may not make complete sense. Your annual usage appears limited, so you wonโt significantly benefit from the lower running costs of an EV.
Additionally, the Punch EV is compact with a smaller boot, which may restrict practicality during family visits. Long idle periods are also not ideal for EVs unless the battery state of charge is managed carefully.
