I am planning to buy the Kia Seltos HTX (A) with the 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine and automatic transmission. What are your thoughts on this variant? Is it a good choice, or would you recommend any other cars in the same segment?
The Kia Seltos with the 1.5 NA petrol engine is a nice pick if you are not necessarily looking for exciting performance. Power delivery is smooth, refinement is good, and there's enough performance for average city driving. There is enough power for gentle cruising on the highway, too. You will miss the punch from the engine when you want a fast overtake, though. The 1.5 NA petrol engine works particularly well with the IVT auto gearbox.
If it's a punchy performance you are looking for, the Seltos with the 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine is worth a look. Alternatives include Skoda Kushaq and Volkswagen Taigun, whose 1.0-litre/ 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engines feel strong and exciting.

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 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.

I wish to buy a new mid range automatic petrol SUV. Had been owner of Honda Amaze for 11 yrs. Low maintenance, less service costs, happy ownership. So planned to buy Elevate CVT but found it lagging in power. Test drove Citroën Aircross/Basalt Turbo AT, found them to be more powerful. But lack confidence to buy due to other ownership reasons. Can you suggest a Automatic SUV in range of 17 to 19 with usage of 80% Bangalore city drive?
If you are looking for something with similar performance to the Citroen Basalt/Aircross, you should consider the Volkswagen Taigun or the Skoda Kushaq with the 1.0 TSI and torque converter automatic. The facelifted Kushaq now gets an 8-speed automatic replacing the old 6-speed unit, and the Taigun will get the same when it is facelifted later this year.
The 1.0 TSI makes a healthy 115hp and 178Nm, which delivers better performance than the naturally aspirated engine in the Elevate and is on par with the Basalt. The 6-speed torque converter automatic was also smooth-shifting and very convenient to use, and we expect the 8-speed to be more of the same. With 80 percent of your driving in heavy Bengaluru traffic, this transmission will be a boon.
Prices for the facelifted Kushaq will be announced later this month, and we expect our first drive reviews to drop around the same time. Before you decide, take a test drive, of course.

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 own a 2013 Volkswagen Polo GT TSI, driven 80,000km and in excellent condition. I am 56 and will retire in 2029, settling in Nagpur. The car will mostly be used by the two of us for a 500km round-trip once every two months. Should I retain the Polo or buy a new SUV in the ₹15–18 lakh range?
If you enjoy driving your Polo and it is running well, there is no real reason to replace it right now.
Your 2013 Polo GT TSI uses a four-cylinder turbo petrol engine that is still smoother and more refined than many of today’s three-cylinder units, including those in cars like the Hyundai i20 N Line. With around 80,000km on the clock and good maintenance, it has plenty of life left and should easily serve you until your retirement in 2029 without major trouble.
There is also the value angle to consider. The Polo GT TSI still commands good resale today. If you sell it now, you will get a stronger price than you likely will in 2029. That money could go towards newer midsize SUVs such as the upcoming Skoda Kushaq or Volkswagen Taigun facelift, which offer similar performance along with clear gains in space, comfort and features.

I’m planning to buy a petrol manual SUV with a budget of around ₹15 lakh (can stretch slightly if it’s really worth it). My usage: * Weekly driving: around 80-100 km * Occasional long highway trips (500 km to my hometown) * Planning more long rides in the future Currently, my budget suits the MG Astor, but I feel the engine may not be very punchy for highway overtakes. However, I’m getting a deal for the Volkswagen Taigun at around ₹16.5 lakh on-road for the Topline 2025 model. I don’t prefer the Tata Nexon (not a fan of the design), and the Kia Sonet felt a bit small for my comfort. My priorities: * Good highway stability and safety * Comfortable long-distance driving * Decent power for overtaking * Reasonable maintenance cost * Good rear seat comfort and boot space Given my usage, should I stretch my budget for the Taigun, or is the Astor sufficient? Are there any other petrol manual options around this budget that I should consider?
The MG Astor is a decent all-rounder amongst the mid-size SUVs, but it doesn't excel in any particular area. You're right to observe that its 1.5-litre petrol engine won't feel punchy enough for highway overtakes, and moreover, it doesn't give you that confident, planted feel at high speeds. Design aside, both the Tata Nexon and the Kia Sonet will feel cramped compared to other SUVs available at this price.
Given your priorities, you should definitely stretch for the Volkswagen Taigun Topline, as it seems to perfectly align with your needs. The 1.0-litre TSI turbo-petrol engine has loads of punch, the SUV feels superbly planted at highway speeds, and on top of that, it is comfortable as well.
It has a 5-star Global NCAP rating, so safety shouldn't be an issue, and since it is the Topline variant, it has plenty of features. There is a facelift of the Taigun coming later this year, but the price you are getting this 2025 example is too good to ignore, so we feel you should go for it.

Looking for an automatic petrol car. My city driving is around 10-15 km on average. Budget around ₹15 to 20 lakh.
You have a few options in the Rs 15-20 lakh range, and its hard to pinpoint something without knowing more about your requirements like rear space, features you'd like or even a body style. Since you are driving mostly in the city, we would recommend either the Skoda Slavia or the Kushaq or their Volkswagen counterparts, the Virtus and the Taigun.
The cars offer up a comfortable ride, and even the sedans have plenty of ground clearance. Importantly, the automatic versions come with a torque convertor gearbox, which is the smoothest type of automatic around and something you will appreciate in stop-start and slow city speeds.

Hi, I am planning to buy a petrol manual car with a budget of Rs 18 lakh. My dream car from my graduation is the Mahindra Thar or ROXX. But as I am married now, I am also thinking of the Skoda Kushaq or Volkswagen Taigun. Kindly please suggest to me whether I should go with the Thar or others. And one major thing is that the majority of the drive will be on hill roads and bad roads. So please suggest to me accordingly. Thank you.
If most of your driving is on hill roads and bad roads, the Mahindra Thar ROXX makes more sense. It offers higher ground clearance, a tougher suspension setup and far more confidence on broken terrain. Compared to the three-door Thar, the ROXX is also more comfortable and practical, with better rear seat space and a usable boot.
That said, the Skoda Kushaq and Volkswagen Taigun are more comfortable, practical and efficient for everyday use. They can handle mild rough roads with ease, but are not meant for sustained bad terrain. Both are also due for updates with improved comfort and added features, so it makes sense to wait a month or two if you are leaning towards either of them.

I am planning to buy an automatic car with a budget of up to ₹20 lakh (maximum). My priorities are automatic engine, safety and comfort. I am confused between the new-generation Kia Seltos and the Honda Elevate. Should I wait for the upcoming Taigun and Elevate facelifts?
The Kia Seltos is a very good all-rounder, and the new-generation car has had focused improvements in ride quality and rear seat space, so this should meet your requirements for a comfortable car. Safety equipment is good, with features like six airbags and ESC standard across the range. The car has not been crash tested by GNCAP or BNCAP yet.
The Volkswagen Taigun has secured a 5-star GNCAP rating, and the facelift should secure the same too. However, in terms of comfort, it would rank behind the Seltos and will take a few months to arrive, with the Honda Elevate being later still. Thus, on the whole, we think the Kia Seltos is a good buy that you can happily go ahead with.
