The Maruti Suzuki Victoris VXI CNG suits your needs the best. It suits your highway use better than the Grand Vitara and Hyryder CNGs because unlike those two, the Victoris CNG gets underbody mounted CNG tanks which frees up boot space which is essential on road trips. Also worth noting, all three SUVs are mechanically identical. Furthermore, Maruti’s service reach is the widest and if resale is a worry, the Maruti badge is known to have one of the best resale values on the market.Do note, you'll have to plan your highway trips according to the availability of CNG pumps on your route and you'll also have to wait in the queues that are generally there at CNG pumps.

Since you've already owned a Mahindra Thar 3-door, and you believe that it is the best for you, we would recommend you go ahead with it. You already know what the vehicle is capable of, and as an owner, you're aware of all its pros and cons too. There are no other options in the market that can deliver what the Thar can.The Maruti Jimny is smaller, very tough, and surprisingly capable, although its engine performance is no match for the Mahindra. The Force Gurkha is capable off-road, but lacks the Thar's sophistication, and feels too crude in comparison. Other monocoque AWD options include the Toyota Hyryder, Maruti Grand Vitara, and Victoris, Mahindra XUV 7XO, and dual-motor EV options like the Vinfast VF7 and Tata Harrier EV. Do note that while all these models will get you through sticky situations and handle mild trails easily, none are as good off-road as the Thar. All things considered, go for the Thar; it seems to be the best fit for you.

Mostly city use in Pune with room for five and a Rs 17 lakh cap - the Hyundai Creta IVT is the best fit. The N Line or other turbo-petrol trims will require you to stretch your budget beyond Rs 20 lakh. Since most of your use is in Pune city traffic, performance from the 1.5 NA is more than adequate. It is also the roomiest amongst your choices and comfortably seats five with room for their luggage. One drawback, though, is that on your occasional highway excursions, you may find overtaking needs a bit more planning with a full load and luggage.If performance feels inadequate, then the Skoda Kushaq 1.0 TSI automatic or the Volkswagen Taigun 1.0 TSI automatic are great choices too. They feel solid and safe, have top crash ratings, and stay steady in sharp bends. The automatic is smooth in traffic, the engine pulls well on climbs, and fuel use is sensible for daily runs. They are not as roomy as the Creta, but overall, the space is good for four adults and a child, and the ride handles broken roads well. The Maruti Suzuki Victoris should be very easy to own and efficient, but highway performance would trail the Kushaq/Taigun.Overall, for your mix of city and highway with ghats, the Creta IVT fits best.

On a Rs 15-23 lakh budget, the Kia Carens Clavis diesel automatic fits your use best. It rides comfortably on long trips, the low step-in makes it easy for elders, and the third row lets you carry six or seven or fold it to free up a big boot. The diesel pulls well on hills with a full load, and the automatic keeps driving effortless in traffic. For you at 5 feet, the high seat, wide glass area and light controls help with confidence in a tier-3 city, and Kia’s service reach outside big metros is a plus.Know that, compared to your Alto, it is a long car, so tight parking needs a bit more care. With all three rows up, boot space is small, so plan to fold one side when needed. If five seats are enough and you want a sportier feel on hills, look at the Skoda Kushaq 1.5 automatic. If smooth city running and lower fuel use matter more, you can go for Maruti Suzuki Victoris strong hybrid. Given your affinity for long family road trips, we would not recommend an EV at this stage. Overall, the Carens suits your family-first brief best.

We're assuming that by hybrid, you mean a strong hybrid wherein the electric motors also power the wheels. In that case, there are currently no models on sale in India that fall under 4 metres or your Rs 15 lakh budget. The most affordable strong hybrid on sale currently is the Maruti Suzuki Victoris VXI, which is priced at Rs 16.38 lakh (ex-showroom, India). However, if you mean a mild hybrid system where a small electric motor and battery merely assists the engine, you should go for the Maruti Suzuki Brezza. It measures under 4 metres, falls under your Rs 15 lakh budget, and its a very easy SUV to drive and live with. For your daily city run, its idle start-stop and energy assist help save fuel in slow traffic, and the restart is smooth so it feels easy. The size makes it simple to park, yet you sit high and the suspension handles broken roads well, which matters when you’re doing this distance every day. Maruti’s wide service reach also keeps upkeep simple when you’re clocking many kilometres.

Mostly city use with a sensitive lower back and an under Rs 20 lakh cap points to a taller, easy-to-drive automatic. The Kia Seltos 1.5 petrol IVT HTX (A) fits this brief best. The seat height makes getting in and out simple without bending or climbing. So, the ride is soft at low speeds, thanks in part to this variant's smaller 17-inch wheels, so your back gets less shock from broken roads, and the automatic moves smoothly in traffic. You sit upright with a clear view out, the steering is light, and the 360 camera takes the stress out of parking. What's more, this should just about fit in your budget, and it gets you ADAS features as well. Kia’s wide service network helps with easy, reliable ownership over many years, too. The other good option is a Hyundai Creta, but getting these features will require you to move to a top-spec variant only, which is out of your budget. You could also consider the Maruti Suzuki Victoris 1.5 petrol AT, which offers even lower running costs but is not quite as comfortable as the Hyundai or Kia.

With 40 km a day and mostly highway, from your list, the Tata Nexon diesel fits best. It will use less fuel on long runs, feel more relaxed at 80-100 kph, and give easier overtakes with family and luggage. Your mix has enough highway, so the diesel’s exhaust filter should stay healthy. As a fuel type, CNG is cheap to run, but for 60% highway, it can feel slow, and needs more planning for refills. Better for mostly city use.Maruti Suzuki Victoris petrol will be simpler to own and should be reliable, but on highways with a full load, it will use more fuel than the Nexon diesel. Also consider the Hyundai Venue diesel, which is available with a smooth 6-speed auto. Overall, from your choices, the Nexon diesel lines up best.

Your booked Kia Seltos HTX automatic is actually a sensible choice for your usage. With 80 percent city driving and occasional highway use, the Seltos petrol automatic fits well because it is spacious, comfortable, easy to drive in traffic and feels premium enough for the money. Unless you specifically want maximum fuel efficiency, there is no obvious reason to cancel that booking.On the second question, the current geopolitical tension and crude price concerns should not push you into a panic decision. Yes, India has been urging fuel conservation due to global supply uncertainty, and the government is continuing its push toward alternative fuels and electrification. But that does not mean petrol cars suddenly become bad buys this year. Petrol and hybrid cars sold today will remain usable and supported for years.The more practical decision is based on your usage. If you cannot charge at home reliably, stay with petrol or a hybrid. EV ownership without dependable home charging still needs compromise.If your usage is mostly city and you want lower running costs, a strong hybrid like the Maruti Suzuki Victoris / Grand Vitara hybrid makes a lot of sense because you get much better fuel efficiency without EV charging dependency. In fact, for your city's heavy usage, a hybrid arguably makes more sense than a pure petrol Seltos if fuel bills are a concern.

We are assuming you're comparing the Maruti Victoris ZXI O to the Grand Vitara Zeta O, both of which are similarly priced and equipped, and are powered by the same 1.5-litre petrol engine. Also, they have similar space, quality, and their driving manners are also similar. So the only difference between these cars is the way they look - the Victoris has a lighter coloured interior, which feels airier, compared to the Grand Vitara's dark brown and black colour scheme. You won't go wrong by opting for either; however, the Victoris gets our vote because it feels a bit more modern and has brighter interiors.

Since you're looking for comfort and fuel efficiency, you could consider the 1.5 NA petrol versions of the Maruti Victoris or Maruti Grand Vitara. Both these are competent, no-nonsense cars that will meet your requirements. Also, being high-riding vehicles, ingress-egress will be easier than in your Honda City, and because you're seated higher up, visibility is also quite good. Since these cars are very similar beneath their skin, pick the one that you think looks better outside and in. You won't go wrong picking either.
