Hi, my wife is new driver, and she just got her driver license, I booked a 7x0 diesel manual, as u suggested in my earlier request, but we need a car for a First time driver, she is 29 years old, and the cars she liked the most are tata altroz diesel, nexon diesel amt, maruti swift zxi automatic amt, honda amaze cvt i-VTEC, her running is about 20kms per day, and she is aware about dpf risks in diesel vehicles, but she also goes on road trips once in 2 weeks on weekends, so she is also considering diesel, and she is fine with manual or automatic, she needs cruise control, android auto, and her desired fuel efficieny should be above 20km/l and she needs good amount of space and it should be easy to drive

I have a budget of Rs.10 lakh and want an automatic car. My usage will be around 70-80% in the city and 20% on highways in Bangalore. I have shortlisted Hyundai i20 Asta IVT, Honda Amaze ZX CVT, Tata Nexon AMT Pure Plus and Maruti Suzuki Baleno AMT. I want a decent city fuel efficiency of around 10-12 kmpl. I also want a car that will not feel boring after 5-6 years and has a youthful appeal with a bit of style. Please help me choose the right one.

Pick the Hyundai i20 Asta IVT. For mostly Bangalore city use, it feels light and easy to drive and its clean, sporty look will still feel young in five years. It's very efficient too, though some others might be better. The automatic is the smoothest to drive and the most polished in traffic, but that trim will likely go past your car under Rs 10 lakh budget; settle for the Sportz (O) instead. A quick word on the rest. The Honda Amaze CVT is smooth, friendly and efficient, but as a compact sedan it might not deliver the style statement or road presence you want, and the Honda Amaze price starts at Rs 7.51 lakh (ex-showroom). The Baleno will be the most efficient; in real-world traffic you can expect around 11-13kpl if you are judicious with the throttle, and the cabin is airy and comfy for the daily grind. However, the AMT is not as smooth as the i20’s automatic. Tata Nexon AMT gives you SUV stance and presence, but the AMT is clunky in stop-go and city economy is weaker, so your 10-12kpl requirement is a stretch.

My monthly running is around 1,000 km, and I am planning to buy a car within a budget of ₹12 lakh. I have shortlisted a few options, including the Maruti Suzuki Brezza (Vitara), XL6, Honda Amaze, Kia Sonet, Tata Nexon, and Hyundai Venue. My priorities are good mileage, safety features, comfort, and adequate boot space. Which model should I prefer and why? Also, should I consider a diesel variant? I have been advised against diesel due to my relatively low running and concerns related to DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid). Please suggest.

Pick the Tata Nexon Creative petrol (MT). For your 1,000 km/month and Rs 12 lakh budget, it gives you five-star safety, a comfortable ride, and a useful 382-litre boot.For your usage, petrol makes more sense than diesel; you avoid DPF hassles with frequent short trips under 10-15km, as well as the higher diesel purchase cost. The Nexon’s suspension keeps the cabin composed over speed breakers and broken patches better than most in this price band. You still get practical space for a family, with a 382-litre boot that can handle two large suitcases, and real-world efficiency of around 16kpl on the highway.If you prefer a simpler, naturally aspirated engine, then consider the Hyundai Venue 1.2 MT, but note that you will be giving up some cabin space.On the test drive, check rear-seat comfort over rough patches and highway cabin noise at 80kph.
