Hello Autocar family, I am planning to buy a new car for me and my grandfather. I already have a Hyundai Santro at home, so this will be my second car. The mandatory requirements are a panoramic sunroof, a 360-degree camera, and decent mileage. My daily commute is around 30 km, including 20 km on the highway and 10 km in the city. The cars we are considering are the Kia Seltos GTX A, Mahindra XUV 7XO AX7T, Maruti Suzuki Victoris ZXI Plus (O), Hyundai Creta N Line, and Tata Sierra Adventure. I am also open to considering the Volkswagen Taigun and Skoda Kushaq. We are both confused and haven't been able to agree on one option. Please help us out, guys!

I am planning to buy a compact SUV for my father (65+ years old) and would like to get your advice. The car will be used mainly for commuting in rural towns, with occasional city drives and airport trips (around 2-3 times a year). My priorities are: petrol automatic, good space, comfortable seating for 5 people, good fuel efficiency, easy and stress-free ownership, long-term reliability, low maintenance, and comfortable ride quality for elderly passengers. I am considering Honda Elevate, Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Toyota Hyryder, Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Kushaq, and also Tata Sierra. Do you think the Honda Elevate is still a good choice, or would you recommend another model that meets my requirements?

Is kushaq a big no if I have to travel in city on low speeds , I have read that DSG is too sensitive to hear and city ride

I want to buy a compact SUV, and I am unsure of which one to buy. I want automatic petrol, which I am sure of. I was thinking of Seltos, but then, mileage and engine after 5 years should be a concern? If I go for a duster, I am fearing service or post-dealership. Sierra, I did not like. Elevate is basic. Kushaq again, maintenance is higher. Don't want to go higher in budget, would love between 15-20 with panoramic sunroof. Checked for 3xo also, although its is sub compact, but the engine noise was higher. Please suggest to me
