Hi, I have to travel to my hometown, which is around 700 km away, 2-3 times a year with my family of three. Currently, I own a Toyota Innova Crysta 2.7V 2022 manual. I am planning to buy a luxury automatic car within a budget of ₹55 lakh. Could you please suggest some suitable options? Should I consider a demo or a new car?

In this price range, you always have to choose badge versus value, as there are some exceptional executive sedans and SUVs available for the same price as entry-level cars with luxury badges on them. If you're after a luxury badge specifically, we recommend the Mercedes-Benz A-Class Limousine, which is excellent value for money, or if you want an SUV, the Audi Q3, which is a little dated now. But offers the best overall package of performance, practicality and comfort. However, for the same money, the Toyota Camry offers far more space comfort and mileage thanks to its strong hybrid powertrain, for similar money. And similarly, the Skoda Kodiaq or Volkswagen Tayron offer far greater space, practicality and power than a similarly priced luxury-branded SUV. However, these big, seven-seat SUVs with 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engines are quite thirsty and could burn a hole in your pocket at the fuel pumps. However, if you're accustomed to the running costs of an Innova Crysta 2.7 petrol, then these won't be too far off. Of all these, we recommend the Toyota Camry hybrid for its all-encompassing offering of comfort, luxury, space and mileage at this price.

Hi, I am currently driving a Toyota Fortuner 4x2 AT, and my daily driving is approximately 100km in the city. I want to upgrade to a new car, with a maximum net budget of ₹50 lakh after exchanging my existing car. I am open to both sedan and SUV options. Kindly suggest a suitable option.

A 100km daily city run is quite substantial, and the big, heavy Toyota Fortuner 4x2 AT isn’t really the most convenient or efficient car for that kind of usage. However, since you are used to the toughness and reliability of the Fortuner, a logical upgrade would be to stay within the Toyota family.The Toyota Innova HyCross in its strong-hybrid guise is a very sensible option. It offers excellent fuel efficiency, which will really help, given your high daily running. At the same time, it retains typical Toyota traits, like a tough build and strong long-term reliability. Compared to the Fortuner, the HyCross has a more practical and spacious cabin, and the top-spec version, which comfortably fits within your Rs 50 lakh net budget, even gets Ottoman recliners in the middle row, adding a real touch of comfort.If you’d like to explore an SUV outside Toyota, the Skoda Kodiaq is worth considering. It’s a full-size seven-seater with a stronger focus on comfort and luxury, offering a more urbane and premium feel compared to the hardy Toyotas. The Volkswagen Tayron is essentially the same car underneath, with a slightly different interior treatment and character. Both the Kodiaq and Tayron are better suited to urban driving in terms of refinement and comfort, but the Toyota would still edge ahead in terms of efficiency and long-term peace of mind.You could also consider the Toyota Camry, which would actually be our pick. Sedans inherently offer better ride comfort and handling balance for city use, and the Camry is spacious, extremely comfortable and easy to get in and out of. For your kind of daily driving, it would feel far more relaxed and effortless while still giving you the Toyota reliability you’re accustomed to.

My monthly running is between 2500 and 3500 km. I am currently using a diesel car and prefer to keep it till the warranty. After that, should I buy a diesel or a hybrid for 1000km highway, rest city?

You are right - with such high usage per month, your choice is between a diesel and a hybrid; a petrol car's running costs would be too high. Without knowing your budget, it's hard to say which segment you are looking at. But overall, while a diesel is a good option, since your usage is more in the city than on the highway, a good, strong hybrid makes more sense.For the majority of your use in the city, the car will likely run on electric power alone, with the engine only stepping in to recharge the battery. And on the highway, you have a good mix of engine power, e-power, and regeneration.Cars like the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, Maruti Suzuki Victoris or Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara are good options in the Rs 18-25 lakh range, but if you can spend Rs 30 lakh plus, consider the Toyota Innova HyCross, which has the added bonus of more space.If your budget is closer to Rs 50 lakh, there is the excellent Toyota Camry Hybrid, and if it is higher still, you can explore the Lexus range of luxury hybrids.

I want to buy a premium 5- or 7-seater, and my budget is around 50 lakhs. I am open to both EVs and ICE vehicles. Though I have thoroughly considered the BYD Sealion 7 as one of the best picks, I would love to know what other premium cars I could get at this price.

There are quite a few types of vehicles available within your budget, and it comes down to what you specifically want and like in your new car. SUVs like the BMW X1 and the iX1, or a three-row version like the Volkswagen Tayron.You can also look at a sedan like the Toyota Camry, which is comfortable inside and offers a strong hybrid powertrain. However, if you are liking the BYD Sealion 7, we would say go ahead with it as it offers a very differentiated appeal with a modern, tech laden interior that's high on quality. The electric powertrain calibration is also very good, and it offers a smooth, strong and progressive drive experience.

Bro, I’m in love with the new Toyota Camry, but I don’t know if it is the best choice in this budget range. Please tell me which car I should buy in that price bracket.

The Toyota Camry is an excellent sedan that feels spacious and luxurious. Its hybrid powertrain makes it extremely efficient, and its ride comfort is second to none. Even though it doesn't feel sporty to drive, its performance and dynamics are quite impressive. If you like the Camry Hybrid, go for it.Other sedans that you can consider in the same price point are BYD Seal, BMW 2-Series, Mercedes A-Class and Audi A4. Out of these, the Seal (EV) feels the sportiest, while the Audi A4 is the most rounded.
