Yes, the Skoda Kylaq Classic Plus is a very good choice under Rs. 10 lakh for a first-time buyer with your usage. At 700- 800 km a month, a petrol SUV is the right call, and the Kylaq is one of the best value-for-money options in the segment. It is safe, well-built and genuinely enjoyable to drive, with a strong turbo petrol engine and a solid, planted feel on the highway. The Skoda Kylaq price range extends from Rs 7.59 lakh to Rs 12.99 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).The service network of Skoda is not as wide as Maruti or Hyundai, but it has improved significantly in recent years, and the Kylaq itself is a relatively simple, proven package. Overall, your choice is a good one.

Go for the Maruti Suzuki Brezza. It is the most sensible choice for a second family car under Rs 10 lakh. It offers a comfortable 5-seat layout, good ground clearance and a smooth, fuss-free driving experience. The naturally aspirated petrol engine of this Maruti Suzuki car is refined and easy to live with. Plus, Maruti’s service network and low running costs make it a very easy car to own long-term. The rear seat is comfortable for family use, and the ride quality is well-suited to bad Indian city roads.The Kia Sonet and Tata Nexon are both good cars, but the Sonet’s rear seat is spacious, and the Nexon’s would also feel tight for a family of five. The Kushaq is spacious but is a more driver-focused car. The Skoda Kushaq mileage ranges from 18.72 kpl to 19.66 kpl, depending on the chosen powertrain option. It would also go well above the Rs 10 lakh mark for even the base version.The Brezza is not the most exciting car in the segment, and there is an updated one arriving in just a few weeks.

If your driving is almost entirely in the city and you don't specifically need the higher seating position of an SUV, the Honda Amaze would be our recommendation. It is refined, comfortable, easy to drive and backed by Honda's excellent reputation for reliability and low maintenance. The Maruti Suzuki Dzire is another excellent choice if fuel efficiency and widespread service support are your top priorities.If you prefer an SUV, we'd narrow it down to the Skoda Kylaq and the Mahindra XUV 3XO. The Kylaq is the more enjoyable car to drive, with excellent ride and handling, while the 3XO offers more features, a roomier cabin and strong safety credentials. Both are among the best compact SUVs in the segment.For the cars under Rs 10 lakh, however, we'd lean towards the Honda Amaze or Maruti Suzuki Dzire, as you'll be able to buy a higher variant with more equipment rather than stretching for an entry-level SUV.The Honda Amaze price starts at Rs 7.51 lakh (ex-showroom), and the Maruti Suzuki Dzire price goes from Rs. 6.25 lakh (ex-showroom)
