I own a 2020 Renault Triber, which is currently in good condition and has been driven for 48,000 kilometres. I would like your advice on the optimal time to sell this vehicle. Additionally, when considering a replacement, should I continue with the Renault Triber as a 7-seater option, or would you recommend a different model? I am asking because I have the perception that it may be prudent to use a car for no more than five years before exchanging it for a new one. Please guide
There are multiple schools of thought - some people may want to keep the car for the longest time possible, some might want to replace it every few years, and some might want to replace it every year. Hence, there is no right or wrong time to sell your vehicle.
If there is a car you're lusting after, or if minor niggling issues keep cropping up with your Renault Triber, then it certainly makes sense to replace it immediately. However, if the car is serving you well without any issues, you may hold on to it for a few more years. Interestingly, the resale value of a vehicle falls the steepest in the first two years, after which its residual value will reduce gradually.
So the difference in resale value at the end of five years and seven/eight years won't be drastic if the car is looked after well. We'd advise you to sell it if you are ready to upgrade to maybe a Maruti Suzuki Ertiga/XL6 or Kia Carens Clavis.

I am looking to buy a new 7-seater within a budget of Rs 15 to 16 lakh. My monthly driving is around 2,500km across both city and highway conditions. Which car would be the best choice for me? If a 7-seater is not possible in this budget, which 5-seater would be the best in terms of mileage, boot space, and low maintenance?
It may not be very glamorous, but one of our favourite seven-seaters is the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga, which is very practical, reliable and suits your budget. The 1.5-litre engine is not very exciting, but paired to a smooth 6-speed automatic, it is easy to drive. With all seven seats in place, there is very little boot space, but of course, with the third row tucked away, it can comfortably carry five passengers with their luggage. Being the owner of a Maruti Dzire, you will be familiar with the Maruti Suzuki service experience, which should give you added confidence.

Hi, I’m looking for a 7-seater petrol car within a budget of ₹15 lakh. Are there any options available?
Currently, there are two models that fit your requirements - the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga and the Kia Carens Clavis. Both have spacious cabins that are reasonably comfortable for seven passengers, and both come with naturally aspirated 1.5-litre petrol engines.
The Ertiga, however, will be more fuel efficient and, being a Maruti car, it'll also come with a stress-free ownership experience. The Kia car, on the other hand, offers many more features, and it can even be had with either a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol or 1.5-litre diesel engine options.

I am a first-time buyer and prefer a seven-seater. My monthly running is hardly 200 km, but once every three months, I will do a 1,000 km drive with full capacity.
There are multiple seven-seater options available across different price points - the most affordable being a Renault Triber, followed by Maruti Suzuki Ertiga, Kia Carens Clavis, and so on.

I want to buy a new car. I have shortlisted three cars: Maruti Ertiga, Mahindra XUV 3XO, and Tata Sierra. I want a petrol model with a manual gearbox, good mileage, good safety features, and the ability to handle both local and occasional long drives. Please advise.
All three cars listed are very different - the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga is a no-nonsense seven-seater MPV; the XUV3XO is a turbo-petrol compact SUV with excellent ride and handling balance; and the Tata Sierra is a mid-size SUV which is likely to offer the most space and feel the most premium of the lot.
You don't seem to have a definitive requirement for a seven-seater since two out of the three cars you've listed can only seat five; the only reason to consider an Ertiga is for its fuel efficiency.
If that is something you can overlook, we'd recommend you shortlist the Mahindra XUV 3XO and Sierra. Out of these, even though the Mahindra car is likely to be punchier and more fun to drive, the Sierra's larger size and more cabin space are likely to deliver a nicer drive and cabin experience, making you feel like you've spent your money well.
The Sierra's NA petrol isn't likely to be much more efficient than the Mahindra's turbo-petrol, due to the Tata's heavier kerb weight; however, between the two, it is the one we'd recommend.

Asked by: Soham Sahaon Nov 26, 2025
I currently own a 2022 Baleno Zeta AGS and am very happy with its mileage, low maintenance, and ease of driving. I want to exchange it for a compact 7-seater that’s easy to maneuver on Bangalore streets and also comfortable for long road trips. I recently drove the Renault Triber and liked its steering and ride quality. My budget is up to ₹10 lakh- should I buy a new compact 7-seater or consider a good second-hand option?
Given your requirements and budget, you have two options. The Renault Triber is well-priced, genuinely practical, versatile and can accommodate up to seven passengers. But its 72hp, 1.0-litre petrol engine feels lethargic, especially when the car's fully loaded.
Alternatively, you could consider the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. The Ertiga is more spacious, has a more powerful and refined engine and being a Maruti car, you'll also like the peace of mind it comes with. There are currently two Maruti Ertiga variants (LXi and VXi) that are priced below Rs 10 lakh (ex-showroom).

I’m looking for a reliable 7-seater automatic car within a ₹17-22 lakh on-road budget. My annual running is about 5,000 km in the city. I need a smooth, safe, easy-to-handle petrol car with proven reliability and economical driving. Which automatic models would you recommend?
You have two options that fit your requirements - the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga and the Kia Carens Clavis. Both models come with smooth 1.5-litre petrol engines, though the Kia's is much more powerful (160hp vs Ertiga's 103hp) thanks to being turbocharged.
But on the flipside, the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga will be much more efficient. The Ertiga is also slightly smaller, which will make it easier to drive and being a Maruti car, you know it will be reliable too.

We are a family of five with one senior citizen. Occasionally, we go on long trips, but otherwise our daily usage is limited to a maximum of 10 km. We currently own a second-hand Celerio, but its suspension and long-distance comfort are not suitable for our 60+ family members. Please suggest whether we should go for a 5-seater or a 7-seater so that senior citizens can rest better during long trips. I am confused between buying a new Hyundai Venue or Tata Sierra, or going with the Ertiga. I also considered Kia, but my maximum budget is ₹12 lakh on-road. Please suggest a new car.
Given your budget of Rs 12 lakh, your best bet is the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. While it is a 7-seater, it will give you the flexibility of seating 5 more comfortably, with some room left for luggage on your occasional long trips.
The biggest advantage, however, is that the Ertiga's MPV body style means the floor is not as high off the ground as an SUV's, and therefore will make entry and exit easy for your senior citizen family members. Plus, it offers comfortable seating and ride quality, which should serve you well, whether in the city or out on the highway.

We are a family of six, including parents. We are looking for an affordable 7-seater under Rs 14 to 15 lakh. We don’t have daily usage but make regular trips to our hometown, around 400 to 600 km per month.
The best 7 seat options within your budget are the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga and Kia Carens Clavis. Both models are practical MPVs with comfortable seating for 7 passengers.
The Maruti Suzuki Ertiga is a sensible option and is cheaper to buy and maintain. Within your Rs 15 lakh budget, you could get a fully loaded Ertiga automatic, though the manual should meet your requirements.
The Kia Carens Clavis is more expensive than the Ertiga, but it is a superior product. It feels more upmarket and is more comfortable. Options to consider within your budget include the 1.5 petrol manual HTK and the 1.5 turbo-petrol in HTE(O). You get a few fewer features on the HTE(O), but the turbo-petrol's added power is something you'd appreciate on highway drives.

We are a family of six, and I am looking to buy a 7-seater manual SUV under 16 lakh. I prefer a body-on-frame design. My shortlisted options are the Scorpio Classic, Bolero Neo, and Bolero. Among these, please suggest the better choice for balanced city and highway use.
Among the three options on your shortlist, the Mahindra Scorpio Classic is the best option. It's got the most powerful engine of the three, which you will particularly appreciate on highway drives.
The Scorpio Classic S is the one that will fit your budget, but it comes with basic features. If you need more features, the Bolero Neo N10 packs in a fair bit.
It must be highlighted that all three options you are considering have side-facing third row seats. These are not as safe as front-facing seats, and we'd strongly advise against this configuration.

There isn't any body on frame alternative within your budget, but you should instead consider monocoque MPVs like the Kia Carens Clavis and Maruti Suzuki Ertiga.
