Her monthly commute will be around 700km, with 500km on the highway and the remaining distance in stop-and-go traffic. The vehicle will also be used for long trips, mostly on the plains. My priorities are comfort and space for a family of five, a peppy engine, reliability for 10-12 years, and pocket-friendly maintenance costs; last is mileage. I don't like Tata or Mahindra cars. My budget is Rs 15-17 lakh. I am considering the Honda Elevate and Sonet diesel. Please feel free to suggest any other cars.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Honda/Elevate/Beauty_11_003%20copy.jpg?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/auto-features/toyota-ebella-vs-mahindra-be-6-performance-comparison-441001Autocar Indiaen2026-09-04T08:00:00+05:30Toyota Ebella vs Mahindra BE 6 performance comparisonhttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/features/images/20260903_080054_f6d5d1aa.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/auto-features/ather-konarc-s-125-vs-tvs-orbiter-v2-price-and-specifications-compared-441003Autocar Indiaen2026-09-04T07:00:00+05:30Ather Konarc S 125 vs TVS Orbiter V2: Price and specifications comparedhttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/features/images/20260903_123746_03e4d41d.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/diesel-automatic-suv-under-25-lakh-for-highway-use-501911Autocar Indiaen2026-09-03T22:00:02+05:30Hi Auto Experts, I’ve been using a diesel Swift for around 10 years, followed by a Marazzo for the last 8 years. I’m now planning to change my car and move to an automatic. My requirements: Annual usage: around 10,0001-2,000 km Includes a couple of long highway trips every year I really like the driving experience and highway performance of diesel cars, so a diesel AT is my preference. Usually 4-5 people, with occasional 6-person trips. Looking for a car that I can keep for 81-0 years. Safety is important to me. Good highway comfort, stability and long-distance reliability are priorities. I’m currently confused between available SUVs and MUVs and would appreciate suggestions from experts. My budget is below 25L.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Mahindra/xuv-7xo/OP704174.JPG?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/car-to-upgrade-from-alto-k10-for-safety-and-mileage-501873Autocar Indiaen2026-09-03T21:00:08+05:30I have owned a Maruti Alto K10 since 2012, and it has covered only around 21,200 km so far.

The car is mechanically bone stock and has been maintained exclusively at authorised Skoda service centres, with complete service records. It was last serviced in May 2024. It is covered by zero-depreciation insurance, an active AMC service package valid until 2027, and an extended warranty valid until 2029. The car also has a few tasteful aesthetic upgrades, including 17-inch Skoda Kushaq rims with Continental 205/50 R17 tyres, OEM top-spec Style projector headlights, a trunk lip spoiler, and black-wrapped front grille and trunk accents. The owner is selling it due to lack of usage. I have test-driven the car twice, and it seems to be in great condition. The owner has already shared all the previous documents and service records with me and is open to having the car inspected at Skoda or anywhere else. The first owner's details have also been shared openly. Everything looks clean so far. The asking price is Rs. 12 lakh. As a driving enthusiast, I am massively tempted to buy it, but I would like an expert opinion. I also have another option: a Honda Elevate VX Manual, driven for 16,000 km, with a single owner, priced at Rs. 11.25 lakh. Please help me decide. The Slavia is the only 1.5-litre manual I have come across at this price. Many thanks in advance.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Skoda/Slavia/GT_07146.JPG?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/automatic-suv-under-30-lakh-for-150-km-daily-running-501886Autocar Indiaen2026-09-02T20:00:01+05:30My daily running is around 150 km, and I currently own a Grand Vitara Strong Hybrid, which gives me around 20 kmpl. I also don’t have a home charging facility, so buying an EV may not be viable for me. Considering these factors, could you please suggest an automatic SUV that is more frugal and easier on my pocket? My budget is around Rs. 25-30 lakh.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Maruti-Suzuki/grand-vitara/500_3328.JPG?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/which-diesel-or-ev-car-under-15-lakh-to-buy-501902Autocar Indiaen2026-09-02T19:00:02+05:30I want to buy a new car with a budget of around Rs. 15 lakh.
