I have narrowed it down to two cars: the Kia Seltos HTK/HTK(O) CVT and the Renault Duster Evolution DCT. But now I'm stuck in a vicious circle of confusion because I feel the Duster Evolution's interior, at around Rs 18.8 lakh on-road, is too basic compared to similarly priced Seltos variants like the HTK or HTK(O). I know Renault is offering a terrific engine, a great ride and a stable car, but I can't convince myself that manual AC knobs, no start-stop system and no auto-dimming IRVM are acceptable in 2026. I genuinely love the Duster, and it feels perfect for my family and me. It will mostly be my wife and me, and occasionally my parents and brother, travelling on long weekend journeys. Should I sacrifice the engine and performance and go for the nicer interiors of the Kia, or should I choose the more utilitarian Duster and accept that the cabin is relatively bare? I can't stretch my budget to the Seltos HTK(O) DCT or the Duster Techno DCT. Please help, I'm heavily confused.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Renault/duster/Renault_Duster_1.0_Turbo_Cornering.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/auto-features/tata-sierra-ev-vs-curvv-ev-which-esuv-is-better-at-rs-20-lakh-440738Autocar Indiaen2026-07-03T08:00:00+05:30Tata Sierra EV vs Curvv EV: Which EV is better at Rs 20 lakh?https://asset.autocarindia.com/static/features/images/20260702_174008_ae9af478.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/auto-features/5-things-to-know-before-buying-the-revolt-rvx-440743Autocar Indiaen2026-07-03T07:00:00+05:305 things to know before buying the Revolt RVXhttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/features/images/20260702_125545_5250de23.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/skoda-vs-volkswagen-suv-and-is-dsg-gearbox-a-concern-in-ncr-traffic-451441Autocar Indiaen2026-07-02T23:30:58+05:30I am planning to buy an SUV and prefer the German twins Škoda and Volkswagen.

I am fine with any engine option. Reliability and spaciousness are my primary concerns. The budget is somewhere near the 20 lakh mark. Please guide me.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Toyota/urban-cruiser-hyryder/_DSC7264.JPGhttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/upgrade-from-innova-to-hycross-or-buy-carnival-or-wait-for-hycross-facelift-451379Autocar Indiaen2026-07-02T16:35:00+05:30Hi sir, I have a dilemma. I own three cars: Toyota Innova 2008 V model, 150,000 km covered and it is in mint condition. Maruti Suzuki Swift 2012 ZDi that has covered 165,000 km , but recently restored to factory specifications at a cost higher than the car's current market value. I also own a Kia Seltos GT Line Plus 2020 that has covered only 6,000 km. I am planning to upgrade. Should I sell the Innova and upgrade to the Toyota Hycross? Would it be wiser to sell both the Innova and the Swift and buy a Kia Carnival? Or should I continue driving these three cars for one more year and wait for the Toyota Hycross facelift? My monthly commute is around 2,000 km, and I prefer a comfortable 7-seater for highway runs.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Toyota/innova-hycross/500_6252.JPGhttps://www.autocarindia.com/auto-images/2026-suzuki-burgman-street-features-image-gallery-440371Autocar Indiaen2026-07-02T16:34:35+05:302026 Suzuki Burgman Street features image galleryhttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/image-galleries/images/20260702_105116_88eaeff8.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/bike-news/ktm-to-phase-out-demo-mode-feature-on-future-motorcycles-440109Autocar Indiaen2026-07-02T16:30:31+05:30KTM to Phase Out Demo Mode Feature on Future Motorcycleshttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/news/images/20260702_105012_079b79e7.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/7-lakh-for-100-km-daily-driving-with-low-maintenance-451432Autocar Indiaen2026-07-02T16:01:29+05:30My car will run close to 100 km daily, with a mix of city and highway driving.

My usage will be 80% on highway and 20% in city. I plan to keep the car for long term, around 10-12 years. Also, I live in a tier II town. I want a automatic car with budget under 13 lakh on-road. I shortlisted Honda Amaze zx CVT and Skoda Kylaq Signature AT. I choose these two from different segments due to their ease of driving. However, the authorised service center of both Honda and Skoda is too far (60 km) from my place.

My preference is for long-distance comfort for my elderly parents, reasonable maintenance costs, reliability, and an automatic transmission because I've heard it is the best (please suggest if any other). My usage is usually office commuting, which will be shared between my bike and this car, at around 25km per day, along with weekend drives within the city, probably one trip outside Mumbai every month, and travel to my hometown once every three months (500km one way, including ghat roads). So, I want something that is good for city driving as well as a capable tourer. Additionally, it should be able to carry heavy luggage for our trips.

However, I am losing the joy of driving. I migrated to this car after owning a Swift Dzire Diesel and an XL6. The mismatch between engine revs and acceleration is becoming unpleasant. Overtaking feels riskier, and even the brakes feel spongy. I have experienced a few unpleasant situations because of this. As a result, I have reduced my overall speed, making the safety of my family a bigger priority. But the driver in me is unhappy.

I want modern features such as a 360° camera, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, etc. My budget is around Rs. 10-12 lakh, but I can extend it to Rs. 14 lakh if the car is feature-rich and offers good safety, ADAS, etc. Initially, I shortlisted the Hyundai i20 Asta variant, but I have heard that it will receive a facelift soon. I have also heard that Hyundai will be launching the Bayon soon. So, I am a little confused about whether it is a good decision to buy a car that is due for a facelift, wait for the Hyundai Bayon launch, or consider other alternatives such as the Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, or Mahindra XUV 3XO. I am avoiding Maruti Suzuki because I have read that the features and safety offered in this price range are not as good as those of the competition. Please advise me.

I've been using a Ford EcoSport diesel manual, but I think it's time to replace it. My driving pattern involves driving 2-3km and stopping the car, and these short trips happen four times a day. I also make occasional trips around Delhi NCR and one or two mountain trips each year, with an annual running of around 10,000-12,000km, split 60% city and 40% highway. I've always preferred diesel cars, but I'm not sure whether the DPF will survive this kind of usage. My priority is a stress-free ownership experience over a few extra kilometres per litre. I like diesel torque, but don't want to deal with DPF or AdBlue injector issues. Please suggest suitable options in both the sub-4m segment under 12 lakh and the 4.3m segment under 16 lakh.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Maruti-Suzuki/Fronx/_AAB6306.JPGhttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/mahindra-xuv-7xo-diesel-at-vs-maruti-invicto-hybrid-at-which-is-the-better-long-term-family-car-451164Autocar Indiaen2026-07-01T09:00:08+05:30I'm confused between the Mahindra XUV 7XO AX7 Diesel AT (25 lakh) and the Maruti Suzuki Invicto Alpha+ Hybrid AT (30 lakh). I'm currently driving a 2021 Hyundai Verna Diesel AT, and my daily running is around 100 km with a mix of city and highway driving. I plan to keep my next car for 8-10 years. My priorities are: reliability, long-term ownership, good fuel efficiency, comfort for family, safety, features, technology, and maintenance costs. Overall value for money. Is the Invicto worth spending 5 lakh more, or is the XUV 7XO AX7 Diesel AT the better buy overall?https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Maruti-Suzuki/invicto/500_7462.JPGhttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/honda-elevate-vs-honda-city-vs-skoda-slavia-1-5-which-is-the-best-driver-focused-upgrade-from-a-baleno-451171Autocar Indiaen2026-07-01T08:30:00+05:30Hi, I currently own a 2023 Maruti Suzuki Baleno (previously an XUV300) and am planning to replace it. I have shortlisted the Honda Elevate Adv/Black, Honda City and Skoda Slavia 1.5. Most of my driving is in the city, with occasional highway trips of around 600-700km. I enjoy driving and like good performance. I really like the Honda Elevate, but I'm unsure about its body roll, and I've heard it lacks power. I'm inclined towards the Slavia because of its performance and looks. Please help me choose the better option. Thanks, Manohar.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Skoda/Slavia/GT_07146.JPGhttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/which-7-or-8-seater-diesel-is-best-for-50000km-a-year-highway-driving-and-strong-resale-value-451175Autocar Indiaen2026-07-01T08:01:01+05:30Hi, I'd like to buy a new 7/8-seater diesel car.
