For a family of three that will soon become four, along with two elderly family members over the age of 60, I am considering the following petrol cars for long-term ownership. This includes Honda Amaze ZX/VX CVT, Honda Elevate V Manual, Kia Syros HTK Plus MT and Maruti Suzuki Fronx Alpha MT. Keeping long-term ownership, comfort, practicality, reliability, and overall ownership experience in mind, which of these would be the best choice for my requirements?
