The budget is not a hard ceiling and is slightly flexible. Requirements: I’m looking for a long-term family car for the next 6-8 years, but it should be fun to drive as well. It should have adequate power with passengers and luggage, especially on hills. My monthly running is approximately 800-1,100 km, mostly in the city. We usually take a trip every 3-4 months, and most of these trips are to hill stations. I’m looking for good automatic petrol options only. My shortlist: 1. 3XO RevX-A AT - Drawback: Boot space (I have experienced this firsthand). 2. Seltos HTK(O) - preferably the Turbo DCT Drawback: Slightly above budget, but I can consider it if it is really worth the extra cost. 3. Elevate V CVT Drawback: Feels like it is missing some premium features. I’m open to other suggestions as well.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Kia/Seltos/Kia_Seltos_Front_Quarter_Tracking_2.jpg?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/which-cng-car-should-i-buy-tiago-or-swift-503105Autocar Indiaen2026-09-26T20:00:07+05:30Hi, I am planning to buy a car but am confused between the Tata Tiago CNG and the Swift CNG.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Tata/tiago/OP706141.JPG?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/can-i-install-cng-kit-in-honda-elevate-zx-mt-503063Autocar Indiaen2026-09-26T19:30:16+05:30As a Honda Elevate ZX-MT owner, I am considering installing a CNG kit, but I am confused about whether it could cause any issues with the ADAS features.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/legacy/cdni/Galleries/20241125092757_HondaElevateFront34.jpg?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/which-strong-hybrid-car-should-i-buy-for-family-of-five-503131Autocar Indiaen2026-09-26T19:00:04+05:30I would like some advice on selecting a strong-hybrid car for a family of five.

My top priorities are comfort, space, and a good driving experience. My average daily usage would be around 50 km, mainly for household work. I'm considering an EV for its silent and smooth drive. My shortlisted cars are:Tomahawk EV, VF7, XEV 9S, Sierra EV My budget is Rs. 25-30 lakh.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/MG/hector-tomahawk-ev/mg_tomahawk-ev%20.jpg?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/which-suv-should-i-buy-hycross-or-seltos-503099Autocar Indiaen2026-09-26T17:30:03+05:30I’m 26, and we’re planning to buy a new car. We have shortlisted two options: the Hycross GX(O) 7-seater and the Seltos HTX(A) Turbo Petrol. We removed the Kushaq from the list due to concerns about spare parts availability and maintenance costs. We also ruled out the Creta, as it feels outdated compared to the Seltos, and the turbo-petrol variant is much more expensive. Around 80% of my driving will be in the city, but I want a good engine and a comfortable ride, as my parents will be travelling with me at times. Although the Hycross is lower on features and there are talks of a facelift, I don’t know why, but it still feels like something different.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Toyota/innova-hycross/500_6252.JPG?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/auto-features/3-reasons-to-buy-mahindra-thar-og-and-2-not-to-441117Autocar Indiaen2026-09-26T17:03:12+05:303 reasons to buy Mahindra Thar OG and 2 not tohttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/features/images/20260926_090104_6f2ab49f.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/which-powertrain-should-i-choose-for-sub-4-metre-suv-503135Autocar Indiaen2026-09-26T17:00:01+05:30I am planning to buy a sub-4-metre SUV with a budget of around Rs. 11-14 lakh.

Could you please suggest?https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Maruti-Suzuki/grand-vitara/500_3505.JPG?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/car-news/tata-aeris-launched-at-rs-529-lakh-440848Autocar Indiaen2026-09-25T12:58:59+05:30Tata Aeris launched at Rs 5.29 lakhhttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/news/images/20260925_072559_5f764aa9.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/industry/world-car-awards-to-acquire-womens-worldwide-car-of-the-year-program-440849Autocar Indiaen2026-09-25T12:13:11+05:30World Car Awards to acquire Women's Worldwide Car of the Year programhttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/news/images/20260925_063349_13818a9f.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/should-i-choose-tata-harrier-petrol-automatic-adventure-x-or-x-plus-when-price-difference-is-around-45000-502972Autocar Indiaen2026-09-25T11:30:10+05:30Hi, I am about to book Tata Harrier petrol automatic as my running is less but I am confused between Adventure X and Adventure X+ and there is only 35 to 45,000 rupees difference between these two variants in the showroom from where I am about to book the car.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Tata/harrier/500_9925.jpg?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/auto-features/honda-cb350-price-and-variants-explained-441107Autocar Indiaen2026-09-25T11:00:07+05:30Honda CB350: Price and variants explainedhttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/features/images/20260924_093605_a0898458.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/which-suv-should-i-buy-among-duster-hybrid-harrier-at-thar-roxx-at-hyryder-hybrid-or-creta-to-replace-kia-sonet-502980Autocar Indiaen2026-09-25T11:00:02+05:30I purchased a Kia Sonet 1.0 iMT in 2024 after owning Maruti Suzuki Dzire for around 11 years. I was so bored of driving it for more than a decade that I rushed to change. I wanted a compact SUV as an upgrade but settled for a sub-compact SUV due to budget constrain or may be due to lack guidance and understanding. Soon after buying it, I realized that this is not the car that I want to drive. I want a vehicle that looks and feels rugged but at the same time, is usable for daily commute with 80 - 90% city drive. I want to feel the same way I feel when I drive my Royal Enfield (strong and rugged). In less than 3 years, I am looking for a change again but this is time I don't want to make the same mistake. I have a few cars in mind but I am not sure which one should I go for. I have shortlisted Renault Duster Hybrid (upcoming), Tata Harrier AT (diesel), Thar Roxx AT (diesel), Toyota Hyryder Hybrid and Hyundai Creta AT (Diesel or Petrol). I drive around 1000 to 1200 km per month, mostly in the city but when I plan for long drives to mountains in Himachal, Uttarakhand or even Leh, I shouldn't have to worry about it. My budget is between 17 to 19 lakh (ex-Showroom). Please advise.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Renault/duster/Renault_Duster_1.0_Turbo_Front_Quarter_Tracking.jpg?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/which-automatic-petrol-car-should-i-buy-for-my-dad-between-i20-cvt-3xo-tc-or-kylaq-at-503017Autocar Indiaen2026-09-25T10:30:01+05:30Hi, I am looking for an automatic car for my dad for 70% travelling on open highways/country roads and 30% in slow moving (not heavy) traffic. with quarterly over 350km of travel. Fuel efficiency is not a concern to me and features as well as cabin toys are not deal brakers. My pure focus is on engine, transmission and reliability. I have shortlisted i20 CVT as the belt drive is smooth, but I am not sure about longer 110kph cruising and overtakes. I have also shortlisted, 3XO TC as the MPFi is convincing but I am not convinced about the service of Mahindra. The car is also a bit bulky for my dad. I have also shortlisted Kylaq automatic as this car is compact but has enough power but I am a bit worried about the 2.0 Skoda/Volkswagen reliability. The nearest ASC is 70kms away, which is the major concern as accessibility worry when i face some issues. Also, I am not sure how the engine will feel while driving in the city because of direct Injection in the long run. Other cars are rejected because of AMT/DCT/Budget/strict petrol requirement.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/hyundai/i20/_AAB7346.JPG?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/should-i-choose-kia-syros-ev-or-maruti-grand-vitara-hybrid-for-65km-delhi-gurgaon-commute-thrice-a-week-502982Autocar Indiaen2026-09-25T10:00:01+05:30Hi, I am looking to buy either Syros EV or a hybrid car. My usage is around 65 km run in heavy traffic zone between Delhi and Gurgaon almost 3 times a week on weekdays and local city driving on weekends. Once in 4-5 months, I plan intercity trips. Please tell whether Syros EV or Maruti Grand Vitara makes sense. I do have an independent house so I can set up home charging. However, I am also concerned on what should be done if EV breaks down considering current facilities and how quick is the road side assistance for EV. Finally, I want to go ahead with company leasing due to which I will be the second owner and have to buyback after 3 years. Please suggest.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Kia/syros-ev/Kia_Syros_EV_Front_Quarter_Tracking_1.jpg?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/should-i-buy-a-spacious-5-seater-suv-or-7-seater-under-18-lakh-for-low-annual-usage-502975Autocar Indiaen2026-09-25T09:30:11+05:30I own a used Toyota Innova Crysta. I am used to spacious 5 seater cars. Now, there are two things to note. I am retired so my car may run only around 10000km annually. My son and daughter-in-law also moved abroad so I don't need 7 or 8-seater unless there is no spacious, comfortable 5-seater car. I am looking for a car (preferably SUV).

I have been driving a Honda City for the last 12 years without any major hiccup. The Honda City engine and its reliability is excellent although its ground clearance is an issue. I have looked at Elevate and given its ground clearance as an SUV, I am impressed although the issues on E20 and abrupt blending issues are surely technical issues. Windsor EV was a great test drive but all controls on screen could be a bottleneck for me at my age and am planning to move to an automatic. Please recommend as experts. My monthly running will not be more than 500 km. Should I also look at Seltos. I will appreciate a feedback from experts. I want a reliable, easy to drive car with low maintenance cost and good family value with. There won't be any great pick ups or many highway drives will not be there.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Honda/Elevate/GT_01358.jpg?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/how-is-hyundai-bayon-different-from-hyundai-creta-502981Autocar Indiaen2026-09-25T08:00:04+05:30How exactly is the Hyundai Bayon different from Hyundai Creta?https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/hyundai/bayon/Hyundai_Bayon_Front%20left.jpg?w=1200&h=675&fit=crop&crop=entropy&q=75&fm=autohttps://www.autocarindia.com/auto-features/taking-a-look-at-20-years-of-the-hyundai-verna-in-india-441086Autocar Indiaen2026-09-25T08:00:00+05:30Taking a look at 20 years of the Hyundai Verna in India https://asset.autocarindia.com/static/features/images/20260918_140719_e4c186d5.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/auto-features/5-things-to-know-before-buying-the-2026-triumph-daytona-660-441102Autocar Indiaen2026-09-25T07:00:08+05:305 things to know before buying the 2026 Triumph Daytona 660https://asset.autocarindia.com/static/features/images/20260923_105209_d9784e43.jpg
