Hi, I have shortlisted 5 cars and will buy one of these in the upcoming weeks. I am coming from an i20 1.2 Elite, and I am looking to buy an automatic petrol. My budget is around Rs 15-16 lakh. I am looking at the 3XO, Sonet, Astor, Kylaq and Venue (not a fan of the Nexon / Syros looks). I stay in Mumbai, and most of my running will be city driving, so automatic transmission smoothness will be an important factor. My weekly average is around 80-100km. A couple of times a year, we might take the car for a 300km highway run, but that’s rare. Features like a panoramic sunroof, ventilated seats and mood lighting are good to have, but not deal breakers. Could you please suggest what you think are the most suitable options? I took the 3XO for a test drive and really liked it, and will be driving the others over the next 2 weeks as well.
Given your priorities from a petrol automatic, your best options are the Mahindra XUV 3XO, which you already like, and the Skoda Kylaq. Both have a lot in common, like a punchy turbocharged petrol engine, a solid feel, great ride quality and - most importantly - a smooth torque-converter automatic gearbox.
The Mahindra car has a more spacious cabin, though this comes at the cost of the boot, which is smaller. And though its engine is stronger, it's also not very fuel-efficient; although, given your low running, perhaps this is not a deal breaker for you either. The XUV 3XO also has more features, though that drives the price up too, and at your budget of Rs 15-16 lakh, you should find evenly-equipped versions of both cars.
Overall, they're closely matched, and preference plays a big role, but we feel the Skoda Kylaq is a better all-rounder.

I am confused between the Kylaq MT, Fronx MT, and Brezza MT. My priorities are a powerful engine with a smooth and reliable manual transmission. I do not care much about features, and the suspension should be good enough to tackle speed breakers at high speed and bad roads.
The Kylaq comes with a punchy 115hp, 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine that’s mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox. It has a claimed mileage of 19.68kpl. The Kylaq also feels tough over broken roads and potholes, and is one of the nicest-handling compact SUVs.
Skoda has also given the Kylaq plenty of equipment like a large touchscreen, a sunroof, ventilated and powered front seats, 6 airbags and much more. Skoda Kylaq MT prices range from Rs 7.59 lakh to Rs 11.99 lakh (ex-showroom).

Hello! After test riding the automatics of Kylaq, 3XO, Venue, Nexon, Creta, Seltos, Hyryder, Elevate, Kushaq, Taigun, and Roxx, I’ve narrowed my choice down to Kylaq Signature+ AT and Hyundai Creta S(O) IVT. I’m really confused between these two: Kylaq Signature+ AT • I love the drivability and safety feel. • Comfortable with higher service and parts costs. • Main concern is reliability. I don’t want unexpected visits to the service center beyond regular servicing. Creta S(O) IVT • Great comfort, reliability, and bigger size. • But in a recent highway test drive, I didn’t feel very confident while cornering. The throttle response felt weak (though manageable). For context, my current car is a Grand i10. In 8 years, I’ve only ever visited the service center twice (one heater coil issue and a clutch adjustment). I live in the Delhi NCR region. My use would be 80% city, but as my hometown is in hilly terrain, I want the car to perform well in hills. So my key question is: How reliable is the Automatic Kylaq? Are there any major issues? Should I go for Kylaq over Creta? PS: Don’t want to wait for the Kushaq facelift as I feel Kylaq is more VFM, having the same engine and better performance. Not considering DSG. Thanks in advance.
On driving pleasure, as you have rightly pointed out, it is hard to beat the Skoda Kylaq. The turbo petrol engine delivers strong torque, and the ride and handling balance is among the best at this price point.
However, when choosing between the Skoda Kylaq and the Hyundai Creta, the Creta emerges as the more sensible option if peace of mind ownership is a priority. Having already lived with a Hyundai and experienced trouble-free ownership, the transition will feel familiar and reassuring. With the sheer number of Cretas on the road, it is a proven product that is difficult to go wrong with.
The Creta’s 1.5 litre naturally aspirated petrol engine is smooth and refined, and the CVT automatic gearbox is exceptionally seamless. This makes city driving effortless, which is an important factor given that nearly 80 percent of your usage will be urban.
That said, the Kylaq should also prove to be reliable. Mechanically, it is a well-established package. The turbo petrol engine has been used across multiple models over the years, and the 6-speed torque converter automatic is sourced from Aisin, a supplier trusted by several major manufacturers in India. From a durability standpoint, there are no inherent concerns.
Where Hyundai still holds a clear advantage is in aftersales support and service reach. The ownership experience is more predictable, especially in a region like Delhi NCR or when driving to the hills, where service stations are fewer and farther apart.
If driving enjoyment is your top priority, the Kylaq will always feel more engaging. But if long-term ownership comfort, service reach and peace of mind matter more, the Hyundai Creta remains the safer and more rounded choice.

Planning to upgrade my car for safety from a Kwid to a sub-4m SUV. I am confused between the Skoda Kylaq and the Kia Sonet. I liked the Sonet diesel but am worried about DPF issues. For the 1.0-litre turbo, I know the Kylaq is superior, but I am also concerned about maintenance and resale value. The Sonet has everything except safety and has a stiff suspension. I need it for highway and city use and would prefer an automatic. Please suggest.
If you liked the Kia Sonet, go for it - it is a polished compact SUV. As you've mentioned, the Skoda's 1.0-litre turbo-petrol is an excellent engine, but the Sonet's isn't too far behind in terms of performance. Kia's DCT is smooth, and on the whole, the Sonet is quite nice to drive too.
As far as safety goes, the Sonet packs in more active and passive kit, including ADAS, which the Skoda Kylaq misses. Alternatively, you could also consider the new Hyundai Venue Turbo-DCT.

Hello Autocar Team, Good day to you. I am planning to purchase the Skoda Kylaq Automatic (Signature Plus variant) within a maximum budget of ₹15 lakh (through a bank loan). However, a friend has suggested that I wait for the upcoming 2026 Kushaq model, which is expected to be available in March 2026. I am concerned about service costs, real-world mileage, and the new 8-speed automatic system that may be introduced in the 2026 model. Given my budget and concerns, should I proceed with the current Kylaq, or is it worth waiting for the Kushaq 2026 model?
The Skoda Kylaq is enjoyable to drive, and performance is strong too. Moreover, it's compact, solidly built, and its suspension strikes a good balance between ride comfort and handling.
The Skoda Kushaq is relatively more spacious, particularly at the rear, so if you travel with four passengers regularly, the Kushaq is the better pick. We are yet to get behind the wheel of the Skoda Kushaq with the new 8-speed automatic transmission, so we recommend you wait for our review if you are keen on the Kushaq.
Alternatively, you could avail some mouth-watering discounts on the pre-facelift Kushaq, because of which you could get a higher variant in your budget. If resale value isn't something you're concerned with, this is an option you could explore for the considerable savings upfront.

We have a Mahindra XUV300 petrol in the family. I am looking for a car within an ex-showroom budget of ₹10-14 lakhs that offers similar driving pleasure to the XUV300, especially in terms of pickup and NVH levels. However, it should deliver better mileage than the XUV300. My driving is mostly on state highways with minimal city usage, and my annual running is around 5,000 km. Please suggest suitable options.
The problem with strong performance is that it usually comes at the cost of mileage. However, the Mahindra XUV 300 - and Mahindras in general - is that they have been tuned to prioritise performance over fuel economy; hence, they are all very powerful.
If you want strong performance and a fun-to-drive character, check out the Skoda Kylaq. Its 1.0 TSI engine makes 115hp, which is less than what the Mahindra offers. But as is often the case with Volkswagen Group's famous TSI turbo-petrol engines, it feels a lot stronger than the numbers suggest.
The good bit is that it comes with a smooth 6-speed AT option, in case that is what you want, but the 6-speed MT is a fun and easy gearbox as well. As for fuel economy, it will definitely be better than the XUV 300's 1.2-litre turbo petrol, but you will still have to be careful with the throttle to achieve good real-world economy numbers.

Hi, I am a first-time car buyer, around 38 years old. I am planning to buy an automatic as I will mostly be driving in the city and occasionally travelling on highways. I need a good-performing and spacious sub-4m compact SUV with reasonable maintenance costs. I am a fan of torque converter or CVT gearboxes only, as they are easier on the pocket. My budget is around Rs 16 lakh. Since the Venue and Creta do not have torque converter options, I have left those out. I am confused between the Skoda Kylaq and the 3XO AX5L AT, as it comes with Level 2 ADAS features. Back seat comfort is good in the 3XO, and we are a family of five. Which one should I choose? Or should I wait for the Duster 2026?
Yes, the Mahindra XUV 3XO has ADAS features and is generally well-equipped, and yes, the petrol engines come with a torque converter automatic gearbox. It also has the most spacious cabin in the segment, which will be helpful for a family of five.
Do note, however, that its boot is not particularly large, the powerful 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine with the AT is not very fuel efficient, and the fully loaded petrol AT with ADAS will go past your budget of Rs 16 lakh.
The Skoda Kylaq may miss out on some features, and it is slightly less spacious in the cabin, but overall, it is a better car to drive, and it falls within your budget.
You could wait for the Renault Duster, but it is a few months away, there's likely to be a big rush at booking time, it's a segment above, so it may not fit in your budget, and it comes with a dual-clutch automatic, not a TC or CVT.

I have a 2010 petrol Ford Figo that easily climbs the Matheran ghat with the AC on and five people (four adults and one child). Can the new Škoda Kylac (automatic) do the same? Is it as comfortable in terms of space as well?
The Skoda Kylaq is powered by a punchy 115hp, 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine paired to a 6-speed torque converter automatic gearbox, and as such, it will have no issues climbing up ghats with the AC on. While the cabin isn't as spacious as some competitors, the Kylaq can comfortably seat four adults and a child.
Coming from the Ford Figo, you will also appreciate the great ride and handling balance of the Skoda Kylaq. Skoda Kylaq automatic prices range from Rs 9.25 lakh to Rs 12.99 lakh (ex-showroom, India).

I own a 2016 Hyundai Creta diesel and a 2025 Carens Clavis diesel. It is now time to replace the Creta. Please suggest a good 5-seater, excluding Hyundai and Kia. I want a petrol automatic with all the latest features. My budget is ₹15 lakhs.
Given your requirements, you should consider the Skoda Kylaq. It comes with a punch 115hp, 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine that's paired with a 6-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. The Kylaq also comes feature-loaded with equipment such as a 10-inch touchscreen, a sunroof, ventilated and powered front seats, a wireless charger and much more.
The Skoda SUV has also received a full, 5-star crash safety rating from Bharat NCAP. However, the Kylaq is a bit short on space in the rear for three adults, and it misses out on ADAS features. If you want a more spacious cabin and ADAS, consider the Mahindra XUV 3XO.

I need to buy a new car and am confused between the Skoda Kylq and the Kia Sonet. It will be used only in the city and driven by the owner. Please advise.
If it's a manual you are looking to buy, then we would pick the Kia Sonet, as you would find the clutch pedal and gear shifts lighter. Given that you are primarily driving in the city, this is something you would appreciate.
However, if it's an automatic you are looking to buy, then the Skoda Kylaq would be our pick. The gearbox is a torque convertor unit, which is smoother and better suited to stop-and-go traffic than a dual clutch transmission (DCT), which is the auto option on the petrol Sonet.
