Asked by: Suhas Jagdaleon Dec 9, 2025

I currently own an i20 (2012-2014) Sports petrol variant and want to upgrade because it’s quite old. I use the car very infrequently, mostly weekends or occasional family outings for four, and don’t want to spend much since I already have 2-3 bikes for daily use. My budget is around ₹5 lakh; I prefer an automatic petrol car. Should I buy a used or a new car? Please suggest suitable options.

For a budget of Rs 5 lakh, there aren't many automatic new car options available. 

You could opt for a Maruti Suzuki S Presso VXi AMT, which would serve your needs. But as you need to carry four family members during your occasional weekend use, we would recommend upgrading to a Maruti Suzuki Celerio 1.0 Petrol VXi AMT. It is a bit more spacious and upmarket. 

However, yes, given your limited usage and need for passenger room, we would recommend checking out a used car

Asked by: D D Thawareon Dec 1, 2025

I am a senior citizen looking to purchase a new car with an automatic gearbox and within a budget of around Rs 5 lakh. It should be best suited for city driving and occasional highway trips to nearby cities. High safety features are a must.

The Maruti Suzuki S-Presso AMT is the cheapest automatic car on sale in India, which is in your budget. And while it is a very user-friendly and easy-to-drive city car, it doesn't feel confident on the highway. Yes, Maruti has upped its safety feature list by adding Electronic Stability Program (ESP); however, it still gets only 2 airbags - side and curtain airbags are missing. 

Since you plan to drive on the highways regularly, you could consider picking a pre-owned, safer car from a higher segment from reputed platforms like Spinny - the used cars are not only thoroughly inspected, but the company also offers a comprehensive warranty for added peace of mind.

Asked by: Radhakrishnan Raon Nov 24, 2025

Please suggest an automatic car below 4 lakh.

Unfortunately, there are currently no new cars with an automatic transmission on sale under Rs 4 lakh. The most affordable automatic car in India is the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso, the VXI (O) AMT variant, which is priced at Rs 4.75 lakh (ex-showroom). Alternatively, you could look at the used market, where you'll find plenty of options within your budget.

Asked by: Vibhor Sharmaon Nov 11, 2025

I want a small car with good fuel efficiency. My budget is ₹6 lakh. I’m considering the Alto K10 and S-Presso as I want reliability and hassle-free ownership. Which one is better, or should I consider another car?

Given your requirements and your budget of ₹6 lakh, you're right, the Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 and S-Presso are your best options. Both of these Maruti Suzuki cars use the same engine and gearboxes, and offer the same hassle-free driving experience.
Of the two, the Alto K10 has the advantage of offering six airbags as standard across the range, while the S-Presso only gets two. However, the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso offers more interior space, should you travel with passengers often.
You could also consider the Maruti Suzuki Celerio. You might only get a mid-range variant in your budget, but it offers more space and a more upmarket feel than the Alto and S-Presso.

Asked by: Gurcharan dhimanon Nov 3, 2025

I have a budget of ₹6-7 lakh and want a fuel-efficient car with good ground clearance and basic features like central locking and power windows.

The Maruti Suzuki S-Presso will fit in your budget and gets a good ground clearance, along with centre locking and all four power windows. It is also compact and easy to drive in the city and has a very efficient engine.

Asked by: Mithun Sreenathon Nov 3, 2025

I currently own a Kia Sonet GT+ DCT, which my wife uses on weekdays for a 30 km round-trip in bumper-to-bumper Chennai traffic. She finds the Sonet increasingly cumbersome to park, especially on narrow lanes near her office. We are looking for an automatic car within ₹6 lakh on-road for city use. Priorities are an automatic gearbox, excellent all-around visibility, hill-hold assist, easy parking, and good mileage. Please suggest suitable options.

At your budget of Rs 6 lakh, on road, only two options fit the bill, which are the Renault Kwid and the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso. Both come equipped with 1.0 petrol engines, AMT gearboxes and hill-hold assist on the automatic variants. Of the two, the S-Presso edges ahead for your requirements, as it offers better value for money, slightly better visibility, especially while reversing, and slightly better mileage overall. However, the differences are marginal, so it really comes down to your preference. Alternatively, you could also consider buying a more premium used hatchback within the same budget, for which there are several great options on spinny.com.

Asked by: Monuon Oct 15, 2025

Hi, I am planning to buy my first car, gear-free, mostly for city and suburban rides, for a family of four. It should require low maintenance. Budget under ₹5 lakh. Which car should I buy?

Given your requirements and budget, you should choose between the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso AMT and the Alto K10 AMT. Both cost slightly above ₹5 lakh on-road.
The S-Presso is the more affordable option. Both hatchbacks offer decent space for four passengers, and being Maruti Suzukis, maintenance will not be an issue.
