Asked by: Ronakon Dec 31, 2025
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 โน16 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.

I am looking for an automatic sedan under โน10 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.

Iโm planning to upgrade my 2016 Baleno Sigma (petrol MT) to a petrol automatic. Iโm looking for a safe, family-friendly car with ADAS/adaptive cruise, good mileage, and modern safety features. My usage is 70% city and 30% highway. Since I already own a Maruti, Iโm exploring other brands for a family of 5 (older parents + kid). My budget is under โน15 lakh, and Iโm deciding between an SUV and a sedan. A few options checked were Honda Elevate, Kushaq, Slavia, Creta, Astor, Punch, etc.
Unfortunately, not many cars will fit all your requirements in a budget of Rs 15 lakh. Most notably, ADAS with adaptive cruise control, which is usually reserved for higher variants of cars in higher segments. The cars that do offer it within your budget, however, are the Honda Amaze, Kia Sonet and Tata Nexon.
Of these three, we would recommend the Tata Nexon, as it is the most spacious and comfortable, and best suited for travelling with 5 on board. Its mileage is not the best, but it does have all the features you would want and has scored a 5-star crash test rating from both Global NCAP and Bharat NCAP. If you don't mind foregoing ADAS, however, there are far more options that open up.

Asked by: Samaron Dec 30, 2025
I have a budget of โน11 lakh. Is the Honda Amaze VX CVT a good option in terms of ride quality and reliability?
The Honda Amaze is a strong option, thanks to its polished and premium CVT automatic, which makes it very easy and pleasant to drive. Although the Amaze is a newer model, it uses the same tried-and-tested engine and gearbox that Honda has offered for years, and this setup has proven to be dependable and reliable.
The ride quality is good as well, though this is where the Maruti Suzuki Dzire has a slight edge. The Dzire feels more pliant over bad roads, whereas sharper bumps are felt a bit more inside the Amazeโs cabin, especially by rear seat passengers. That said, it is not a deal breaker.
We would recommend taking a proper, long test drive with your family before making the final decision.

My budget is โน10-11 lakh, and this will be my first car. My monthly driving will be less than 200km. Please suggest a suitable option.
Without knowing other requirements, it is hard to pinpoint the ideal car for you. However, given that you are a new driver, we will give greater weightage to ease of use and hassle-free ownership. Based on body style, here are a few suitable options to consider:
- Hatchback: Maruti Suzuki Swift
- Compact sedan: Honda Amaze, Maruti Suzuki Dzire
- Compact SUV/Crossover: Maruti Suzuki Fronx, Maruti Suzuki Brezza, Hyundai Exter

Asked by: Tushar Kon Dec 25, 2025
Hi, I am currently driving a 2021 VW Taigun 1.0 MT with annual running of ~10,000 KM (60% City, 40% Highway). The car is running fine, but it becomes a pain in heavy city traffic due to constant gear shifting & turbo lag. I am confused between 3 options: (1) Get the cheapest possible city automatic like an S-presso AGS and use it with Taigun, (2) Get a proper AT like Amaze/i20 CVT or Brezza AT and upgrade Taigun after a few years, or (3) Sell Taigun and upgrade to a proper AT SUV. Please suggest.
The Maruti Suzuki S-Presso AGS, which has an AMT thought convenient, doesnโt offer a smooth driving experience because of the way AMTs work - their main weakness is that annoying pause in between gear shifts, which feels quite jerky and causes โhead nodโ, a term that is synonymous with AMTs.
Upgrading to a proper AT leaves you with very few options; some of the ATs are diesels, and the only mid-size SUV petrol AT is the Tata Sierra. Your option of getting a city-centric car, keeping the Taigun for highway driving, and upgrading it later makes the most sense.
The Honda Amaze, with its CVT transmission, makes the most sense as a city car. It is smooth and comfortable, taking the stress out of city driving, whilst the manual 1.0 Taigun is a solid highway car. The Taigun is due for a facelift around FebruaryโMarch 2026, and other new midsize SUVs, including an all-new Creta, are expected around 2027. So yes, hang on to your Volkswagen Taigun and pick up an Amaze for your city chores.

I am having a Honda City ZX 2006 model in very good condition, which has been driven 82000 kms. But nowadays, servicing costs are increasing due to ageing spare parts. Confused whether to retain the car or buy a new sedan, which comes with more features. Meanwhile, I don't want to spend much on a car because it is a depreciating asset. Please suggest a budget-friendly car with good mileage and safety features.
If you are happy with your old Honda City, why not consider the new one? It maintains the same traits of reliability, comfort, fun driving dynamics and a strong engine - all of which have improved considerably since 2006, while also packed with modern trappings and safety features.
If you want to lower your budget further, the Honda Amaze is worth considering. It is just a City in a more compact package and includes features such as six airbags and ADAS. This Honda car has also received a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating.

Asked by: Devendra Samdanion Dec 22, 2025
I have a budget of โน10-12 lakh and have shortlisted two cars: the Tata Nexon Creative S+ AMT and the Honda Amaze ZX CVT. My monthly driving will not exceed 500 km. Since this will be my first car, I am a bit confused about which one to choose.
The Honda Amaze will offer a better ownership experience for you. Firstly, it's a CVT, which is smoother and much more responsive than the AMT in the Tata Nexon.
Itโs lighter and more agile than the Nexon too, which as a first-time owner makes it easier to drive and manouver especially in the city. Being a Honda car, you can expect it to be more reliable and easier to maintain. Itโs efficient and fairly spacious too, and for your budget, the Amaze is the right choice.

Asked by: Balooon Dec 22, 2025
I am confused between the Honda Amaze ZX CVT, Honda Elevate ZX CVT, and Hyundai Venue HX10 AT. My main concerns are safety, ease and smoothness of driving, and reliability. I mostly drive in the city with an occasional highway trip once a month or so for vacations. Please suggest a good car among the ones I have listed. Thanks!
The Honda Amaze is a compact sedan, the Honda Elevate is an SUV, and the Hyundai Verna is a mid-size sedan. So, they are quite different in terms of body style and their usage.
The Honda Amaze suits buyers on a tighter budget, and since youโve shortlisted the Elevate and Verna, we assume your budget is higher and around Rs 20 lakh.
The Hyundai Verna is a well-equipped sedan and works well for city driving. That said, we also suggest you look closely at Elevate. SUVs are generally more comfortable and confidence-inspiring on highways.
The Honda Elevate 1.5-litre engine paired with the CVT gearbox feels smooth and responsive in everyday city use as well. It also offers a large boot, which is handy for weekend trips and vacation luggage

Asked by: Sachin Kumaron Dec 21, 2025
Hi AUTOCAR, I want to purchase the smallest car for solo driving. It should be safe, reliable, comfortable, and equipped with a good engine that performs well. My budget is 10 lakh, and my running will be around 1000 per month. Also, should I go with automatic or manual? Please advise.
Given that you travel extensively, choosing automatic will add to your day-to-day convenience. The Honda Amaze CVT meets most of your requirements well. It is a comfortable car with excellent ride quality, and the 1.2-litre petrol engine offers smooth and dependable performance. The VX petrol CVT variant should also fit within your budget.
