I currently own a Hyundai Venue 1.2 petrol. I am considering for an upgrade and my requirements include a 7-seater petrol or diesel automatic SUV under 25 lakh (on-road) with 80:20 city to highway ratio with maximum 15,000 km annually. Can I consider electric as well. What would be your recommendation? I am considering XUV 7X0, Safari or the Alcazar but I'm open to other options as well. Thanks in advance.

Hi experts, I have a query regarding our next family car purchase. We currently own a 2008 Hyundai Santro that has covered around 77,000 km so far. My parents are now planning to upgrade to a more spacious 7-seater. A few points about our usage: • We are a family of four, so the third row will remain folded most of the time and will primarily be used as additional luggage space. • Our annual running is quite low. • Around 70% of our driving is on highways. • We intend to keep the new vehicle for the next 10-12 years. The shortlisted models are: * Mahindra XUV 7XO AX7 Petrol Manual * Mahindra Scorpio N Z8 Select Petrol Manual * Hyundai Alcazar Prestige * Tata Safari Adventure X Plus Petrol Manual One concern that is making the decision difficult is the possibility of higher ethanol blending in petrol in the future. We are not considering a diesel vehicle because our low running could lead to DPF-related issues. Considering our usage pattern, long-term ownership plans, and concerns about future fuel standards, which option would you recommend and why? Thank you in advance for your guidance.

I would like to buy a bigger SUV and have shortlisted a few petrol models. My budget is a constraint, but performance is my top priority. The options I am considering are the MG Hector, Tata Harrier, Tata Safari, Hyundai Alcazar and Mahindra XUV 7XO and Mahindra Scorpio N. Which one would suit me better?
