I am planning to buy an SUV mainly for city use. It should be safe and spacious, so I have shortlisted the new Maruti Suzuki Brezza AT ZXi, which is priced similar to the new Hyundai Venue DCT with six airbags. At this price, one can also get the Kia Seltos iMT 1.5 petrol and Hyundai Creta iMT 1.5 petrol. So, which is the best among these?

Autocar India says: It really depends on what you’re looking for. If you largely drive the vehicle yourself, then the new Venue with the 1.0 turbo-petrol DCT is the best option as is the nicest of all to drive. The new Brezza’s 1.5-litre engine doesn’t have the same punch as the Venue’s, but the SUV is more spacious and better for a family. If you want space, more features and an overall bigger car, then the Seltos or Creta are good options.
