I own a Glanza AMT and find it irritating to drive in auto mode. I prefer using manual mode. I regret not opting for a torque converter.

•1wI am looking to buy a new car within a budget of ₹12 lakh. I will be the sole driver, based in Goa, and my usage is very minimal, less than 5 km per day. I have been driving a petrol manual car for the past 15 years.

If you'd like to upgrade from your Eon within the Hyundai brand, you could consider the Hyundai Venue 1.2-litre petrol-manual. The well-equipped HX5+ variant falls within your Rs 12 lakh budget, and it feels very modern, spacious and like a huge upgrade over your outgoing car.If you prefer a hatchback, you could consider a Maruti Baleno or Toyota Glanza. Both of which are spacious, well-rounded hatchbacks, and with Toyota and Maruti's widespread support network, your ownership experience is likely to be trouble-free.

•2wI am planning to buy an automatic car under ₹10 lakh. Currently, I own a 2012 Maruti Suzuki Swift petrol (ZXI) and a 2012 Honda Civic petrol. I am confused between the new Renault Duster and the Maruti Suzuki options in this segment. Could you suggest the most suitable car based on my requirements?

Unfortunately, the automatic variants of the Renault Duster and Maruti Suzuki Brezza/Victoris don't fall within your Rs 10 lakh budget. Since you're looking for an SUV-like automatic option, you could consider Maruti Fronx or Toyota Taisor 1.2 petrol-AMT. These are crossover-esque versions of the Maruti Baleno/Toyota Glanza hatchbacks, which are spacious, efficient and will be a good replacement for your Swift. If you're open to hatchbacks, the Hyundai i20 IVT is also a great option.

•4wI am planning to buy an automatic car under ₹12 lakh. The Honda Amaze, Maruti Suzuki Dzire, and Maruti Suzuki Baleno fall within this budget and offer plenty of features. I plan to go on long trips out of the city at most twice a month, so my usage will be around 70% highway and the rest in the city. I am quite confused about which one to choose. The Dzire’s design looks promising, but the engine feels underpowered compared to the Baleno. I have not test-driven the Amaze yet.

The Honda Amaze CVT has the smoothest gearbox compared to the AMT units of the Baleno and Dzire. Its ride comfort is good, and its larger boot is its strength. That said, refinement and seat comfort aren't as good as the two Marutis.As you've rightly mentioned, the Maruti Suzuki Dzire could feel a touch underpowered, and since your usage is primarily on the highway, we'd recommend the Baleno instead. The Baleno's four-cylinder engine delivers stronger performance (than the Dzire), and it is spacious and well-equipped. If you don't mind its relatively smaller boot, this is the one to go for.You could also consider the Toyota Glanza, which is essentially a Baleno with brighter, beige interiors.

•5wI own a Ford Figo Aspire 2016 petrol model. Please suggest a compact sub-4 metre car as a replacement. My budget is ₹8-9 lakh, and the car will run mostly in the city.

There's actually quite a variety of automatic hatchbacks within your budget. The Maruti Suzuki Baleno and its twin, the Toyota Glanza, are well-rounded products. Good ride comfort and excellent fuel economy are highlights, and the AMT gearbox is good enough for average driving. However, gearshifts aren't the smoothest, and you'll feel this over a quick overtaking manoeuvre. If you are open to the Citroen brand, the C3 is a great option. Its 1.2-litre engine and torque converter auto gearbox combo is excellent, and ride comfort is also very good.You could also look at the Tata Altroz DCA in Creative S trim. The dual-clutch auto gearbox is very smooth and well-suited to city use. There's also a toughness to the package that gives great confidence at highway speeds.We are also fans of the smooth and polished Hyundai i20 CVT, but the Sportz(O) that fits your budget isn't an ideal choice as it misses out on the safety of a rear wiper. Finally, if you have the option to install an EV charger at home or office, the Tata Tiago EV is also an option to consider. Being all-electric, it's super smooth and very refined. However, it works best as a city car.
