Hi folks,
Decided to upgrade from 10 year old Santro Xing erlx and try a new car in 6 lakh range (prefer to try out a diesel). Please help to choose a Spacious and Economical Car.
details:
> Your Budget: Rs.6 Lakh
> New or Used: New Car
> Your Location: Kerala
> Top Five Priorities: Comfort for 5 Adults, Safety, Ground Clearance, Decent fuel economy, Low Maintenance
> Monthly Running: Between 1,200 to 1,400 Kms
> Type of Fuel: Diesel (Not very particular, but should be more fuel efficient than santro. My Santro returs 12 to 14km/l.)
> For What Purpose: Regular City Use, weekend highway trips to native (150 - 200km including return)
> Seating Capacity: 5 Adults in Comfort (5 plus size adults - car pooling to office)
> Type of Segment: Hatchback, Sedan or MUV (should have good ground clearance - Poor Roads)
My usage is mainly on Poor Roads, Hilly area with very bad roads
Nice to have features:
- Parents should be able to get in and out of the car without much strain and effort (Santro is good in that aspect).
- Upright Seating position similar to Santro Xing.
- Rear seat should be comfortable esp for my parents (Santro has bouncy ride at rear).
- Decent fuel economy (my Santro returns 12 to 14km/l).
- Luggage space greater than Santro Xing.
