Go for the Renault Triber or its sister car the Nissan Gravite. They are both economical to buy and run and offer genuine three row seating comfort. At your budget you will also get the top end variant which comes very well equipped with features like a touchscreen music system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a rear camera, NFC card based central locking, rain sensing wipers and other bits. The only downside is the 1.0 litre engine is not really powerful and you have to work it hard in instances like overtaking, driving in the hills or when your are fully loaded. If this is a concern, opt for the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. The engine is more powerful and easily manages everyday driving tasks even when fully loaded. Its also larger and thus would give you more room inside however at Rs. 10 lakh you would get the base version only.

The Nissan Gravite is a sensible upgrade from your 2015 Grand i10 Magna, especially if you need a 7-seater on a budget. The 1.0-litre petrol engine is however down on power and delivers decent performance in city driving if driven in a sedate and relaxed manner. Also with a full load of passengers and luggage, it can feel strained on highways and overtaking requires more planning. So look at it as a relaxed daily commuter and it should be fine. The Gravite's biggest strength is its value proposition as it offers genuine 7-seat practicality at a very accessible price point. However, if you regularly do long highway trips with a full family, you will notice the engine's limitations and you might want to consider upping your budget for something like the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. Overall, the Gravite is a good budget-friendly 7-seater, but be realistic about your expectations from the 1.0-litre engine.

For a tight budget of Rs. 10-15 lakh and a requirement for a 7-seater primarily for Mumbai city use with occasional highway runs, the Nissan Gravite AMT is actually a sensible choice. This Nissan car is one of the most affordable 7-seaters in the market and offers a genuinely usable third row, which is not always the case in this price bracket. The AMT gearbox is not the smoothest in stop-start traffic, but it is manageable and keeps the car within budget.That said, if you can stretch your budget slightly, the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga is the better long-term ownership proposition. It is more refined, more comfortable and has a proven track record for reliability and low running costs. The Ertiga's third row is also more comfortable for longer journeys, and Maruti's service network is a big advantage.If budget is absolutely non-negotiable, the Gravite is a perfectly reasonable choice. If you can stretch a little, the Ertiga is the car you will be happier with over the next 5-10 years.

Given your budget of Rs. 10 lakh, the Renault Triber is your best option. The Triber has a roomy cabin and a genuinely usable third row, it has a decent feature set and the 1.0-litre petrol engine is fairly efficient too. It can be even had with CNG for lower running costs or an AMT automatic for greater convenience. Do note though, it's not the most refined car and the engine will feel underpowered when fully loaded or when you're out on the highway. Alternatively, you can even consider the Nissan Gravite which is mechanically identical.

In that price bracket, your other 6-7-seater options are Renault Triber and Nissan Gravite. These offerings are surprisingly spacious and practical, and since your usage is limited to the city, they will feel very user-friendly, with their light controls and relatively compact dimensions.Alternatively, you could consider a Citroen Aircross. Being a rare sight on our roads and having proper SUV credentials, it delivers in terms of road presence. However, its third row is not as spacious as other seven-seaters listed, and you will have to stretch your budget by a few lakhs to get this, since the seven-seater is available with the more powerful turbo-petrol engine.Taking all things into consideration, we'd urge you to reconsider and opt for the 1.5 petrol Kia Carens or Maruti Ertiga if you want a comfortable seven-seater.
