I am planning to buy my first car with a budget of up to ₹10 lakh, although I can stretch it slightly if required. My preferences are an automatic transmission, long-term reliability, less-gimmicky features, and a decent level of safety. I am currently confused between the Honda Amaze and the Maruti Suzuki Brezza. Are there any other options I should consider?
The Maruti Suzuki Brezza is a good option to consider. It is spacious, has a comfortable ride, and the 1.5-litre petrol engine is refined and punchy. The 4-speed torque converter automatic gearbox is smooth and quick to respond, and the Brezza is also well equipped.
The Honda Amaze is also a good option, and it is the only car in this segment to offer a diesel engine. The 1.5-litre diesel is punchy and efficient, and the 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox is smooth and quick to respond. The Amaze is also spacious and comfortable, and it is well-equipped too.

I want to buy a sedan car with a budget of ₹10 lakh. Which car will be better in terms of mileage, power, and a smoother ride?
The Maruti Suzuki Dzire is the most complete sedan that you can get within Rs 10 lakh. It packs in quite a few features, and cabin space is impressive, though rear headroom could be an issue for tall passengers.
What also works in the Dzire's favour is its peppy and efficient 1.2-litre petrol engine. Good ride comfort rounds off the package.
If you are looking for an automatic sedan within Rs 10 lakh and you value smooth gearshifts, consider the Honda Amaze CVT. The CVT gearbox is much smoother than the Dzire's AMT.

My budget is ₹20 lakh, and I am looking to buy a family car. I am confused between choosing an EV or a petrol car. The Honda Elevate ZX AT is one option I am considering, along with the MG Windsor Pro Essence. Please help me decide.
The MG Windsor Essence Pro is spacious enough for four people, but it has limitations as a family car. Firstly, being an electric car with a moderate range, it's best as a city car and not convenient for out-of-town trips. Also, the boot isn’t spacious enough for a family of four's luggage on a long weekend trip.
The Honda Elevate is the more sensible choice as a family car. It is reliable, efficient, very spacious, and has a big boot. With this Honda car, you can’t really go wrong.

I have a budget of around ₹30 lakh and am more inclined towards a sedan rather than an SUV, but currently there are no good options. Are there any expected this year?
Sadly, there are no all-new Rs 25-30 lakh sedans lined up for launch this year. However, slightly lower down the price ladder, we will see the launch of updated versions of the Hyundai Verna, Honda City, Skoda Slavia and Volkswagen Virtus over the year.
There's way more choice for the same budget in SUVs with options spanning petrol, diesel, hybrid and EV powertrains as well as with two and three rows of seating, and 4x2 and 4x4.

Hello, Sir/Madam. I own a 2009 Honda City that has clocked 2.55 lakh kilometres, and I am extremely happy with it. It's like my second wife. However, due to family pressure, I am now considering upgrading to a new car. I drive around 1,500km a month, mostly on highways, and we are a family of five. The cars I am considering are the XUV 7XO, Invicto, new Seltos, Elevate, or a used Innova Crysta. I would also like advice on an automatic hatchback or compact SUV for my wife. Please advise.
Given you have a family of five, a larger car would work better to accommodate luggage as well, in case any of your 1,500 monthly kilometres are family driving holidays. Since you're used to the rock-solid reliability of the Honda City, we would recommend the Maruti Suzuki Invicto from your shortlist.
The hybrid powertrain of this Maruti car is incredibly efficient, smooth, refined, and very comfortable, and it should be reliable enough to last as long as your City has. The other midsize SUVs you have listed are also good, but they will not offer the same space, comfort, and flexibility as the Invicto.

I have been very happy with the Honda City and drive only about 5,000km a year. I now need to purchase a new car, but am unable to decide between the Honda Elevate and the Honda City.
The Honda City and Elevate are similar in many respects, and the choice largely comes down to your preferred body style. The Elevate, with its higher ground clearance, is better suited to handling the unpredictability of Indian roads. Its practical boot (though City has a larger boot on paper, but Elevate's boot is easier to use), high seating position, and airy cabin are added advantages. The Elevate also gets a larger touchscreen and a more modern interior layout. So we would suggest go for Honda Elevate.

I’m looking to upgrade my vehicle within six months and my budget is ₹25 lakh. I am a sedan lover. Please suggest a car that is value for money, offers good mileage, has moderate maintenance costs, and strong safety standards.
Unfortunately, there are very few sedan options available today, and between Rs 20 to 30 lakh, you would only find the Honda City Hybrid. The City will meet your requirements of good mileage and low maintenance cost, however this variant isn't really value for money at all.
Thus, we would suggest you consider the Hyundai Verna instead. The car may not be as fuel-efficient as the Honda, but it is efficient enough.
We put the 1.5 litre turbo petrol auto through our standard test cycle, and it returned 10.76kpl in the city and 16.05kpl on the highway. The Verna is also well equipped and offers good value, and will be reliable and low on maintenance costs. It also secured a 5-star rating in the GNCAP crash tests.

I have driven 1,25,000 km in my 2019 Honda Amaze S so far, of which around 20,000 km were on petrol and 1,00,000 km on CNG. We are a family of six. I want a small car for daily city use (around 1,800 km per month), and I also travel 250 km with my family twice or thrice a month. Should I replace the current Amaze and buy two separate cars, or continue using the Amaze and buy a new vehicle for family trips? I am considering the Citroen C3 Live CNG as a replacement for the Amaze and the Kia Carens Clavis diesel for family use. My budget is ₹16 to 17 lakh. Please advise and suggest alternatives, if any.
If you are happy with your Honda Amaze and it is not giving you any trouble, you can continue using it for your daily city runs and buy a new car for your family trips.
For your family trips, the Kia Carens Clavis is a very good option. It is spacious, comfortable, drives well, and its diesel engine is both refined and efficient.

Hi, I'm planning to upgrade from 2012 Brio MT (1000 kms monthly 25/75 City/Highway) and the natural choice is Honda Elevate due to familiarity in power delivery, better in/egress and driving dynamics. While a manual is my preferred choice, I am open to an automatic. Features like panoramic sunroofs or fancy screens don't matter much. Please suggest. Also, with Turbos on sale, how often do you see buyers switching from an NA to a Turbo and back to NA? Is a Turbo petrol power so addictive?
The Honda Elevate is a good choice for you and a significant upgrade over your Honda Brio. It is spacious and comfortable, with a good ride quality. The 1.5 litre petrol engine is refined, and the manual gearbox is slick and easy to use.
Considering your limited city running, a manual gearbox should work fine, but an automatic will add a lot of convenience and reduce effort, especially in cities like Bengaluru, where you live. This Honda car also gets a CVT automatic, which is smooth and responsive and works well both in the city and on the highway.
As for turbo petrol engines, their power delivery is indeed addictive and makes them enjoyable to drive, but they do have some downsides. In general, turbo petrol engines are not as smooth as naturally aspirated units and can feel slightly jerky at low speeds. Their fuel efficiency is also very sensitive to throttle inputs, and with a heavier right foot, mileage can drop sharply.
If you are keen on turbo petrol options, you can consider the new Kia Seltos, Hyundai Creta N Line or the Tata Sierra. The Skoda Kushaq and Volkswagen Taigun are also worth considering, but we would suggest waiting, as their updates are expected soon.

I am looking for an automatic sedan under ₹10 lakh for a newly married couple.
The Maruti Suzuki Dzire and Honda Amaze are the best automatic sedan options under Rs 10 lakh. If a smooth, automatic transmission and drive experience are priorities for you, the Honda Amaze CVT is the one you should look at. It's a great pick, especially if rear seat space isn't a deciding factor.
The Maruti Suzuki Dzire uses a less sophisticated AMT-type automatic transmission. Gearshifts aren't slick, and there is a noticeable pause in power delivery between shifts, especially under quick acceleration. In other areas, though, the Dzire does come across as the more wholesome package. It's got a more spacious interior, packs in more features, is more fuel-efficient, and also costs a whole lot less.
