Hi, I recently sold my second-hand car and am planning to buy a new one. My budget is between ₹8-10 lakh. I am 6’1” tall, and many cars in this segment, such as the Tata Punch, Maruti Suzuki Swift, Tata Altroz, and Hyundai i20, are not comfortable for me as the steering tends to touch my legs. Could you please suggest a car within this budget that would be comfortable for my height? Thanks.

You're right, it's difficult to find a car at this price that's suitable for a tall driver. Try the Maruti Suzuki Baleno, which does offer a bit more space than its counterpart, the Maruti Suzuki Swift. Moreover, it uses the older 1.2-litre four-cylinder K12 petrol engine, which is smoother than the three-cylinder Z12 engine in the Swift. You could also consider the Maruti Suzuki Fronx, in which you can get the option of a punchier 1.0 turbo-petrol engine, although space remains the same as the Baleno. Finally, also consider the Nissan Magnite or Renault Kiger, which could offer a bit more space, and if you don't mind a sedan, there's also the Honda Amaze, which is known for its interior packaging efficiency.
