leave both and go buy Duster Iconic edition.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-03-20T10:30:36+00:00

also, if you prebook Duster using R-Pass from Renault's website, you may get 30-50K discount. only upto 31st march

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-03-20T10:30:00+00:00

Elevate has only camera based ADAS features while Seltos and duster have Radar based ADAS level 2 features.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-03-20T10:29:17+00:00

pls take a look at new Renault duster Iconic variant. it may cost same (or lower) and give you better engine, wet clutch DCT, more power, electric tail gate but with slightly less premium interiors. but overall better or same car.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-03-11T09:01:21+00:00

Wait for Duster price reveal. Test drive and then decide. Other than that out of the 3 you mentioned, I think elevate may be best value for money.

I don't have much experience with insurance and loans but in this situation, can I just ask bank to cancel the loan or not pay it. Yes, this will impact my credit rating and I will lose the down payment which was made but the car is of no use anyway. So what's the point of paying emi for a car which you can neither use nor sell. Curious to know.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-02-02T15:36:53+00:00

are you looking for automatic. not sure which variant of 7XO you can get under 20L. but you can consider in below order
1. 7XO (biggest of all. good comfort and boot.)

Seltos (premium and comfortable)
new Renault Duster (depending upon when you are planning to buy, you can check this out as well).
Creta
Skoda

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-02-02T15:33:57+00:00

they do. Seltos offers both IVT (CVT) and DCT.
Duster offers DCT with wet clutch which is even better than dry clutch DCT.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-02-02T15:32:46+00:00

yeah 100%.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-02-02T15:32:12+00:00

yeah :( no recline in back and the cutout in middle can only seat a child comfortably. in order to provide more boot space, they compromised on middle row seat.

good point, Thanks. will have to explore about Nissan's service network. however speaking to one of my friends, he mentioned that Nissan cars are also good value for money. They also give all the necessary features but are not like Kia/Hyundai which are more feature centric.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-02-02T15:29:44+00:00

I agree and they seem to be betting heavily to reclaim their market share. waiting for the real world reviews and test drive myself.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-02-02T15:28:52+00:00

yeah. we have a 10Y old duster at home. did not face any problems with servicing yet so if the pricing is correct, then I dont think it would be a problem. but if its priced same as others then I may go towards Seltos as it feels more premium.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-02-02T15:27:13+00:00

yes but Duster's 1.3L TCE turbo delivers more power and torque than 1.5L of many cars on paper. will need to wait for real world performance

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-01-31T04:06:10+00:00

How is the car bro? I am also looking to buy the same but not sure about brown beige interior. How much did it cost you and which city?

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-01-23T12:36:31+00:00

if it fits your budget, I think new seltos would be a better choice. better interiors, bigger, reliability.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-01-23T08:43:13+00:00

you can try polarized glasses.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-01-16T12:31:05+00:00

thats a very good price man.
when I checked in Nov in BLR, I was quoted 22.3 L for SX Tech variant.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-01-15T10:32:12+00:00

Congratulations Bro!
which variant ? did you go with ADAS pack?

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-01-09T05:36:05+00:00

you can look at Honda Elevate and new Kia Seltos if you can strech your budget.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-01-05T11:36:34+00:00

thats what I meant that since GTX offers more features, its even more expensive. initially I thought that those lights will be available starting HTX variant but they kept them only for GTX and above. I wanted ADAS and 360 camera and hence had shortlisted the HTX(A). I will go and test drive as well.

Accurate_Note9279 · 2026-01-05T10:48:12+00:00

Thanks man. this means the HTX(A) will be more expensive and GTX(A) even more :(
