I was surprised to find that neither showroom seemed particularly interested in promoting the AWD variants. The focus was largely on CNG and hybrid models, while even automatic variants did not seem very common. When it came to AWD versions, none of the dealerships in the NCR were willing to offer a test drive. In some cases, the sales staff did not even understand the AWD variant during the initial conversation and appeared to be poorly informed about its features. Nexa is positioned as a premium retail channel, but my experience did not feel significantly different from Arena. The overall sales and showroom experience felt quite similar. It almost seems as though Maruti Suzuki's sales channels are not making a strong effort to promote higher-ticket vehicles. Given this, should Nexa consider offering only vehicles priced above Rs.15 lakh in order to better justify its premium positioning?https://www.autocarindia.com/car-news/renault-kiger-evolution-turbo-variant-launched-at-rs-789-lakh-440039Autocar Indiaen2026-06-24T12:50:18+05:30Renault Kiger Evolution+ Turbo variant launched at Rs 7.89 lakhhttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/news/images/20260624_104356_06f70189.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/car-news/tata-sierra-ev-revealed-440038Autocar Indiaen2026-06-24T11:55:51+05:30Tata Sierra EV revealed https://asset.autocarindia.com/static/news/images/20260624_073411_46b8ff4a.jpeghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/are-top-end-variants-worth-stretching-budget-beyond-27-lakh-for-family-suv-450509Autocar Indiaen2026-06-24T11:55:00+05:30I am looking for a 7-seater family car in the budget of Rs. 25-27 lakh. I am already aware of the popular options in this segment including XUV 7XO, Safari, Scorpio-N, Kia Carens Clavis, etc. The challenge is that I keep getting tempted towards the top-end variants. Features like ADAS, panoramic sunroof, 360° camera, premium audio, ventilated seats, and all the latest tech make me question if I am getting everything after spending this much amount. At the same time, I am also struggling to differentiate what I genuinely need and what are nice-to-have features. I am in my late 20s and am a car enthusiast. I love driving and road trips. The car that I am looking for will be primarily used for family travel, city driving, and highway runs. My plan is to keep the car for around 5-7 years. I would like to know a few things from those who have owned or upgraded cars in this segment. Which features are genuinely useful in day-to-day ownership and which features feel exciting initially but, were rarely used later? Also, is it worth stretching my budget for top-end variants, or is the sweet spot usually the mid/high variant? If you were in my place and had the same budget today, which 7-seater would you buy and why? I am trying to make a rational decision rather than buying a car for features that I will rarely use.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Tata/safari/GT_03679.JPGhttps://www.autocarindia.com/car-news/mg-to-debut-plug-in-hybrid-suv-on-july-16-440037Autocar Indiaen2026-06-24T11:37:07+05:30MG to debut new plug-in hybrid SUV on July 16https://asset.autocarindia.com/static/news/images/20260624_062106_23d01564.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/industry/bajaj-auto-hit-by-ransomware-attack-operations-unaffected-440036Autocar Indiaen2026-06-24T11:22:39+05:30Bajaj Auto hit by ransomware attack, operations unaffectedhttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/news/images/20260624_055155_c1341239.jpeghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/what-is-the-right-way-to-transition-from-a-manual-gearbox-to-a-cvt-automatic-car-450522Autocar Indiaen2026-06-24T10:30:29+05:30What is the right way to start driving a CVT automatic car after driving a manual gearbox?https://www.autocarindia.com/advice/should-you-buy-the-current-hyundai-i20-asta-or-wait-for-the-facelift-bayon-and-other-feature-rich-automatic-alternatives-under-rs-14-lakh-450572Autocar Indiaen2026-06-24T10:00:22+05:30I'm a first-time car buyer looking for an automatic petrol car mainly for city use and occasional long trips.

And yearly, out of the city running of around 2000 kms per year. Please, my city running may increase in future if I change my house location or office. I am very much confused about EV and petrol cars. In EVs, I was considering the Nexon EV.

Location - Currently based in Pune - BH registration planned because there is a reasonable possibility of moving to another state in the future (likely Madhya Pradesh or Bangalore or Delhi) Usage - Primarily city driving (90%+) - Occasional highway trips, sometimes very long (up to 1,000 km) - Usually 2 adults + 1 child - Must comfortably accommodate 4 adults + 1 child when required - Annual running currently under 8,000 km, but could increase significantly because there will be two drivers and an automatic car is likely to be used more Drivers - One experienced driver comfortable with any size car - Second driver is relatively new and gets intimidated by judging the front-left corner and vehicle dimensions - Features such as a rear camera have helped significantly in building confidence Budget - Initially started looking around the Rs. 10 lakh on-road mark - Comfortable spending around Rs.14-16 lakh if the improvement in safety, confidence and ownership experience is clearly noticeable - Looking for the best overall fit rather than trying to maximise budget Priorities (in order) 1. Reliability and hassle-free ownership 2. Safety 3. Easy manoeuvrability and confidence in city traffic What I dislike about my current Baleno - Feels flimsy and dents very easily - Doesn't inspire confidence on highways anymore - Braking confidence is not great Preferences - Automatic transmission is mandatory - Open to petrol, hybrid or EV - Dedicated parking is available, and home charging is possible - Mostly good roads with occasional monsoon-related road damage - I value predictable ownership, service quality and peace of mind more than outright performance Test-drive observations We have driven a few hatchbacks and compact SUVs with automatic transmissions. One thing that became clear is that a commanding seating position and a clearer view of the road ahead significantly increase confidence, especially for the newer driver. However, we are still unsure whether this benefit alone justifies moving up from a hatchback to an SUV. Long-term thinking Initially, I thought a small hatchback would be ideal because I could pass it on to my parents after 3-5 years. However, if a slightly larger vehicle provides substantially better safety, comfort and confidence, I would rather keep it for 5-10 years and buy my parents a separate car later. Question Based on the above requirements, what would be your top 5 recommendations and in what order? More importantly: - Which body style would you choose: premium hatchback, compact SUV, midsize SUV, hybrid SUV or EV? - Which popular models would you eliminate despite their popularity, and why? - How much weight should I give to reliability versus crash safety when choosing a family car that will mostly be driven in the city but occasionally undertake long highway trips? - Am I likely to regret staying with a hatchback, or is moving up a segment the more sensible long-term decision for my use case?https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Maruti-Suzuki/Brezza/_DSC1938.JPGhttps://www.autocarindia.com/auto-features/mahindra-xuv-3xo-vs-toyota-taisor-turbo-petrol-at-real-world-mileage-compared-440700Autocar Indiaen2026-06-23T17:28:13+05:30Mahindra XUV 3XO vs Toyota Taisor turbo-petrol AT: Real world mileage comparedhttps://asset.autocarindia.com/static/features/images/20260623_074349_666fa3d6.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/what-is-the-best-safe-and-reliable-petrol-automatic-under-rs-11-lakh-for-long-term-ownership-in-a-tier-2-city-450527Autocar Indiaen2026-06-23T16:38:41+05:30Hi Autocar, I wanted to share our situation and get genuine advice before finalising our next car. Our background: we are a middle-class family from Warangal, Telangana. We had earlier booked the Hyundai Venue HX8 DCT for 16 lakh. However, we decided to cancel the booking due to concerns about fuel uncertainty and ethanol blending. With E20 already rolling out and E30 potentially coming in the next few years, we felt risking 16 lakh on a petrol car was financially unwise for a middle-class household like ours. After reconsidering, we've decided to bring our budget down to 10-11 lakh on-road so that even if fuel policies or technology shift in the coming years, our financial exposure and stress stay minimal. Our usage pattern: 70% city driving, 30% highway usage (occasional outstation trips). The overall usage will be moderate/occasional, not daily heavy commuting. Our key priorities: 5-star safety rating (Global NCAP/Bharat NCAP), non-negotiable, automatic transmission (petrol only), reliability and low maintenance for at least the next 10 years, reasonable service network availability in Tier-2 cities like Warangal, and comfortable for occasional highway trips, not just city crawling. Please suggest a few options and the best one to consider.

I have a Grand Vitara Delta AT Smart Hybrid petrol. I have to give back my car to my family staying in Bangalore by October, and hence I am looking to buy a new car here. I have predominantly liked sedans, and I have a budget of Rs. 20-21 lakh on-road. I have narrowed down my choices to the Hyundai Verna 2026 Facelift HX10 Turbo DCT and the Skoda Slavia 1.5L DSG. The area where I stay generally does not have XP95, although the Oil app shows it is available. I have physically checked a number of times and was lucky only once. My driving would be around 80km a day for 6 days a week, with a yearly round trip to Bangalore. This will add up to around 20,000km annually. I like the Skoda Slavia, but I am concerned about the issues the car generally faces with standard 91 RON petrol, which seems less of an issue in the Hyundai Verna. I would like your suggestion on what to choose. I like German cars, but I also value peace of mind after I buy one. What do you suggest?

This will be our first car. We live in Bangalore, and our usage will be roughly 400-500 km/month in bumper-to-bumper city traffic, 500 km/month on highways, plus one 1,000 km road trip every quarter. I've driven (test drive in city) the Seltos and Kushaq, but not the Duster yet. I loved the plush ride and comfort of the Seltos. My wife's cousin, who owns a Slavia, says it's firm in the city road (but manageable) and much more stable on highways. Considering our usage, comfort, city drivability, highway stability, and long-term ownership, which one would we pick and why?https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Skoda/kushaq/Skoda-Kushaq-front-quarter.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/sedan-or-suv-under-12-lakh-for-1000km-monthly-running-450442Autocar Indiaen2026-06-22T21:00:07+05:30I have a budget of Rs. 12 lakh and am currently driving a Tata Tiago, which I have owned for the past 10 years.

In the sedan category, I am considering the Volkswagen Virtus and Skoda Slavia. In the SUV segment, I am looking at the Tata Nexon. Please suggest if there are any better options than these as well. My driving is evenly split between city and highway usage, and I am a light user with an average monthly running of around 1,000 km.

The car has been extremely reliable, and I still enjoy its excellent ride quality, handling, punchy engine, and fuel efficiency. I am now exploring an upgrade, but so far I haven't found many options that offer the same balance of driving pleasure, comfort, and efficiency. I have test-driven most of the diesel automatic options currently available in the market, and the only one that impressed me was the Mahindra XUV 7XO. Lately, I have also started considering strong hybrid vehicles. The Renault Duster and its upcoming sibling, the Nissan Tekton, have caught my attention, and I am willing to wait for them. My requirements are: - Budget: Rs. 25–28 lakh - 5-seater preferred - Open to both SUVs and sedans - Good ride and handling - Strong performance - Excellent fuel efficiency - Can wait 6–8 months for upcoming launches Based on these requirements, what would you recommend?

I mostly use it for city driving and want a vehicle that I can use for longer road trips with my two young kids and dog.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Land-Rover/range-rover-sport/_BE08095.JPGhttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/maruti-brezza-zxi-or-grand-vitara-vxi-which-is-the-better-family-car-for-new-parents-449782Autocar Indiaen2026-06-22T10:30:00+05:30I am confused between the Maruti Suzuki Brezza ZXi and the Grand Vitara VXi. I have a 3-month-old baby and am planning to buy a car to make travelling easier with the child. Initially, I considered the Renault Duster and Skoda Slavia, but both were stretching my budget to around Rs 16 lakh. I have now narrowed it down to the Brezza ZXi and Grand Vitara VXi, but I am unable to decide. Should I consider something else instead?https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Maruti-Suzuki/victoris/4.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/innova-hycross-vx-optional-vs-zx-which-variant-offers-better-value-and-is-a-facelift-coming-soon-449817Autocar Indiaen2026-06-22T10:02:08+05:30I am planning to buy the Innova HyCross.

I have already booked the Hyundai Venue HX5 DCT, but I have come across mixed reviews regarding its fuel efficiency and high-speed stability. I own a Virtus GT as my primary car. Another option I am considering is the MG Windsor EV, although it would require an additional Rs 3 lakh. Please suggest which one I should buy.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/hyundai/Venue/DSC_8700.JPGhttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/which-safe-and-efficient-automatic-7-seater-is-the-best-upgrade-from-a-maruti-ciaz-under-15-lakh-449863Autocar Indiaen2026-06-22T09:00:34+05:30I am using a 2020 BS6 Ciaz Delta manual petrol, and the odometer currently reads 83,000km. We are a family of three and are looking to upgrade to a spacious 7-seater. While my sedan is in excellent condition with no major breakdowns or accidents, I am concerned about the build quality. We plan to travel more frequently by road, so a good automatic 7-seater with a strong crash-test rating and decent fuel efficiency would help. My budget is Rs 15 lakh. Please suggest.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Kia/carens-clavis/_AAB0258.jpghttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/what-is-the-best-7-seater-family-car-to-buy-in-the-rs-25-27-lakh-budget-450270Autocar Indiaen2026-06-22T08:30:17+05:30I need a 7-seater family car with a budget of around Rs 25-27 lakh.https://cdn-s3.autocarindia.com/Mahindra/xuv-7xo/OP704174.JPGhttps://www.autocarindia.com/advice/should-you-buy-the-tata-sierra-pure-plus-dca-petrol-or-consider-better-family-suv-alternatives-under-20-lakh-450199Autocar Indiaen2026-06-22T08:01:25+05:30I am looking to buy the Tata Sierra Pure+ DCA petrol, which costs about Rs 19.7 lakh. I am upgrading from a 2011 Hyundai i20 Asta. I do not use the car on a day-to-day basis; it is mostly for weekend use and a family trip every quarter. Maybe after 3-4 years, I might start using it daily for around 25-30km. I like the looks of the Sierra. Please suggest whether I should go ahead with it or consider alternatives.
