Hi all, I have been using a Skoda Rapid for the last 12 years, and it has amazing power and stability on the highway. I generally drive at the highest permissible speed on the expressway, and my Rapid has never disappointed me. Now it has started ageing and I am looking for a 5-star NCAP-rated SUV. Any recommendations for me, considering I drive weekly 150km in the city and occasional outings? The budget is around ₹30 lakh. Thanks for your recommendation.
Since you have had a positive experience with the Rapid, sticking to a Skoda would be ideal. The updated Skoda Kushaq was recently revealed, and the price launch is just around the corner. It will continue to get the 1.5 TSI engine that is unanimously loved for its performance inside the city and out on the highway. The facelift has not been tested for the Global NCAP rating, but the old Kushaq had scored a perfect 5-stars and the facelift is likely to follow the same.
The new Kushaq is a facelift that brings with it new equipment and refreshed design, but mechanically, it has carried over its powertrain for the bigger engine. The smaller 1.0-litre TSI will feature a new 8-speed torque converter automatic gearbox, but since you are a keen driver, we would recommend you stick to the 1.5.
The engine also features cylinder deactivation, which helps save fuel in the city, and the DSG gearbox is smooth and effortless. The top-spec version would be well under your budget when it gets launched.

I am confused about whether to buy the petrol or diesel variant of the Kia Seltos. I always prefer to drive a manual transmission and am not interested in an automatic at all. I was owning a Kia Carens 1.5 Petrol MT previously and am now looking for a new SUV. Suggest which one to take, either petrol or diesel in the Seltos MT. Also considering the Skoda Kushaq, but afraid of the high maintenance cost in Skoda.
Since you have not mentioned your monthly running, the choice between petrol and diesel mainly depends on how much you drive and the kind of driving you do. As a general rule, if your running is more than about 1,300 to 1,400 km per month, then the diesel version of the Kia Seltos can make sense. You should also have regular highway drives so that the diesel engine can operate properly and avoid potential DPF related issues.
If your running is lower than that or largely city-focused, the petrol Seltos will suit you very well. Since you prefer a proper manual gearbox, you should know that the turbo petrol engine is only available with the clutchless iMT. The conventional manual gearbox comes with the 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine.
While it is not as punchy as the turbo petrol, it is smooth and perfectly adequate for everyday driving, especially in the city. In fact, you are already familiar with this engine because your Kia Carens uses the same powertrain and transmission combination.
Regarding the Skoda Kushaq, the brand has improved a lot over the past few years, and the earlier reliability concerns are largely sorted. However, since you already own a Kia car and are satisfied with the ownership experience, sticking with the Seltos would be the safer and more comfortable choice for you.

I am planning to buy a new SUV at around ₹17 lakh on-road price and have shortlisted the Honda Elevate ZX, Kia Seltos HTK and new Kushaq Prestige. I primarily need a car for 80% driving in the city and around 1000-1200 km per month. Which is better in terms of engine and mileage? Is the Honda Elevate outdated compared to other cars in the segment?
The Honda Elevate is a good option for your needs. The 1.5-litre petrol engine is smooth and refined, and the CVT automatic gearbox is well-suited to city driving. The car is spacious and comfortable, and the ZX variant is well-equipped too. However, in comparison to the Seltos, it does not have the space or the modernity, and the cabin does not feel as plush.
The Kia Seltos HTK with the CVT gearbox is the best option considering all your needs. It is a lot better-equipped than the Honda, has a better ride quality, and the engine has a lot more punch and strong performance while still being easy to drive in the city. The smoothness, refinement and ease of use are why the Seltos will be our recommendation.
The Skoda Kushaq is a good option, too. The 1.0-litre TSI engine is quite efficient, but it is not as smooth as the 1.5-litre engines of the Honda and Kia. The facelift that was recently revealed will be launched in a few days, but it hasn't changed much in the rear seat space, where it is still not as spacious as the Seltos. So we would advise you to shortlist the Seltos.

Please help me decide between the Kia Seltos DCT petrol and the 2026 Skoda Kushaq. Which one is good to drive and easy to own/maintain? I will be using it for around 1000 km per month, with 70% of my commute in the city.
Since you will be driving mostly in the city, the smaller footprint of the Skoda Kushaq would be a bit better in terms of maneuverability. The Kushaq is both shorter and narrower than the Kia Seltos. This does mean that rear space is lower; however, if this is not critical for you, then you can happily consider the Kushaq.
Skoda also offers the Kushaq with the option of a 1.0-litre petrol engine, which has more than enough performance for regular driving and comes with a torque convertor gearbox, which is smoother than a DCT, especially in start-stop traffic and could potentially be more reliable too.

Asked by: Pradeepon Mar 5, 2026
What features will be upgraded in the Volkswagen Taigun? Will it have a 360-degree camera?
A 360-degree camera on the facelifted Volkswagen Taigun is highly unlikely. The recently revealed facelift of its sister model, the Skoda Kushaq, does not get a 360-degree camera either. Since both cars share the same platform and usually have almost identical feature sets, it is unlikely that Volkswagen will introduce that feature only on the Taigun.
What the Taigun facelift is more likely to get are the same updates seen on the Kushaq. These could include features such as rear seat massage, a panoramic sunroof, Google Gemini integration in the infotainment system and a larger 10.1-inch digital instrument cluster.
Apart from these feature additions, the core mechanical package with the 1.0-litre and 1.5-litre turbo petrol engines is expected to remain unchanged.

I'm stuck between the Skoda Kushaq and the Tata Harrier diesel. I drive daily 75km, with nearly 20km in the city and the remaining on the highway. Family size of 4 or occasionally 5. And I love exploring and travelling to forests and mountains by car. Previously used Ford Ecosport and was very happy with it. Now, suggest to me a good car among these two.
While the Skoda Kushaq is a fun-to-drive SUV that would make a suitable successor to your Ford Ecosport, given your requirements and usage, it's not the right choice for you. The cabin is a tight squeeze for five passengers, and considering you drive as much as 75km per day, its petrol engine's fuel costs might add up over time.
The Tata Harrier diesel is a larger SUV with a bigger boot that should be well-suited to your exploratory drives out of the city with your family. Its strong diesel engine will handle these trips well and return reasonable fuel economy. It is also quite fun to drive and has very comfortable suspension. Do note, however, that it is a segment above the Kushaq, and the diesel version especially will be considerably more expensive.

Asked by: Khekaleon Mar 3, 2026
I want to decide on an SUV purchase between the Honda Elevate, VW Taigun, Skoda Kushaq and Grand Vitara. I value good features but no ADAS. Lower maintenance is also important. Please suggest in order of merit.
In terms of lowest maintenance, the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara will top the list. It doesn’t come with ADAS at all, so you can opt for the top Alpha+ variant with all the bells and whistles and still skip ADAS. If you choose the strong hybrid version, it delivers superb fuel efficiency in the city, while all versions have a comfortable ride and spacious cabin.
Among your other picks, the Volkswagen Taigun and Skoda Kushaq also don’t get ADAS and are otherwise well-equipped, particularly the newly facelifted Kushaq, though maintenance may be a bit more expensive.
The Honda Elevate gets ADAS on the top ZX variant, which means you will have to opt for the VX and miss out on some other features. For your needs, the Grand Vitara is the best fit, but do test drive all these cars before making a decision.

Asked by: Tanviron Feb 28, 2026
Hi, I have a VW Virtus bought in early 2023, and now I am looking for a replacement. My preference is for an SUV. I'll primarily use it for city driving, and my monthly usage would be around 200 km. The car must have a good safety rating, comfort and mileage.
Since you are coming from a Volkswagen Virtus, you will naturally appreciate the Volkswagen Taigun or Skoda Kushaq, as both SUVs carry the same DNA of solid build quality and excellent driving dynamics. Between the two, the Kushaq, which has just been updated with fresher looks, more features and a stronger aircon, would be the better option.
You can opt for the 1.0 TSI variant with a six-speed automatic transmission, which is well-suited for city driving. It’s not the most fuel-efficient SUV in the segment, but considering your monthly running of around 200km, that shouldn’t matter too much.
However, do note that the back seat of the Kushaq (and Taigun) isn’t the most spacious. If you are looking for better rear seat comfort and slightly better efficiency, the Kia Seltos 1.5 petrol with the CVT automatic is another good option to consider.

I am confused between the Volkswagen Kushaq and the Kia Seltos. Space is not a concern for me. Please advise which car is a better choice.
The Skoda Kushaq and Kia Seltos are mid-sized SUVs, but take very different approaches.
The Skoda Kushaq is more driver-oriented. It's got punchy turbo-petrol engines, and the performance is backed by fun handling. On the flipside, the Kushaq isn't as roomy as some rivals and misses some equipment too.
The Kia Seltos scores for space, comfort and wow features. It's got pleasant engines, but the driving experience isn't as engaging.
In essence, the Kushaq is the more entertaining package for keen drivers, while the Kia Seltos is the better-rounded product that will appeal to the entire family.

Asked by: Azharon Feb 27, 2026
I want to buy a car with a budget of ₹16-18 lakh ex-showroom under my employer’s car lease policy. My usage is very light, around 1000 km per month. I currently have a Swift VXi on which I’ve done 30,000 km in 4 years. The car is used mostly in the city with occasional highway trips. I want a petrol manual with a good driving experience like my Swift. I am confused between Kia Seltos, Toyota Hyryder, Skoda Kushaq, and Honda Elevate. Should I consider extending my budget for an XUV 7XO AX7 or should I wait for the Hyundai Creta update (I like the Dark Edition)? Please suggest the most valuable car in this budget with its recommended variant.
If the driving experience is the top priority, the Skoda Kushaq will be the right pick for you. It's got punchy turbo-petrol engines, and handling is very enjoyable. The updated Kushaq launches next month and packs in a few more features, and also stronger air conditioning. While Skoda has not announced prices as yet, you should get a fully-loaded 1.0 TSI with a manual gearbox within your budget.
Of the other options, the Honda Elevate is also worth considering. Engine performance and handling are good, but refinement isn't great for this segment.
The Mahindra XUV 7XO AX7 is great, but it might be too large for your requirements. Also, fuel economy is lower than the alternatives on your list. The Hyundai Creta is a practical pick, and the 1.5 petrol engine and manual gearbox are easygoing, but unexciting.
