I have a budget of Rs. 30 lakh and want to buy a diesel automatic car with good performance on highways that has decent mileage along with good safety, space and comfort. My usage is mostly on highways and I drive less within the city. I am considering Harrier, Jeep Compass and MG Hector. Among these, which would be a better highway car and fulfil all my requirements?

Hello. My budget is Rs 20 lakh, and I'm looking for a big, full-size petrol automatic SUV. The MG Hector and Tata Harrier are the two options I have explored, but I'd like to consider more options because making the decision has been difficult. My family enjoys long road trips, and we also occasionally drive on broken roads and light off-road trails.

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?
