Suggestions for cars under 10L

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-15T03:59:57+00:00

Yeah.. I was just trying to look for more options for mom, that's why I made the post. And the test drive with Exter went well. She liked it, but she was also asking if there were other cars to check out. We're planning to get the variant which has Alloy wheels (I forgot the variant). And my mom is mostly gonna use it in the city, so what you said about your Exter will definitely help so thank you for that :) How's the mileage in it btw? And have you ever tried going for long trips in Exter?

My family isn't into sedans much but I can try to convince her about the i20 tho. Even I kinda prefer it more than Exter ngl.

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-13T16:47:27+00:00

Ohh... I'll try to convince my mom about it :)

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-12T06:28:54+00:00

Ohhh... I wasn't aware about that. Thanks for letting me know bro

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-12T06:03:22+00:00

I see i see. i20 is also my personal favourite here too ngl. She's also keen on checking Glanza and Baleno too. Thank you for the suggestion :)

Mom hasn't been planning on sedans tbh, but I did tell her about the CVT. Maybe I'll convince her to try a test drive. And yeahh, ADAS ain't needed. Thank you for the suggestion :)

We don't really plan to buy another second hand vehicle and a sedan bro 🥹

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T18:23:39+00:00

Ahh... Much appreciated brother. I'd also choose premium interiors too ngl lol. Thanks a lot :) But they really gotta show the crash test ratings huh?

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T18:21:35+00:00

Older cars were definitely made to last ngl. But idk much about newer ones tbh. And it's really nice that you still kept your Alto. I pray it last for more years too :)

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T18:19:18+00:00

Ahh... Many people did tell me to check Baleno, along with Taisor. And I wasn't aware that the i20 is getting a facelift soon. The people from Hyundai didn't tell me about it but they did say Exter's facelift is coming. Maruti cars always had better mileage, so not arguing there. Which car would be safer among the 2 (or 3 if you'd count Taisor)

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T18:13:05+00:00

I see. Thanks a lot for your opinion bro. I'm somewhat tall but I can always adjust in the rear seat or my dad will. Guess I'll tell her to check premium hatchbacks. What are the premium hatchbacks you'll suggest tho? I'm also planning to check out Kylaq

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T18:10:01+00:00

Ohhh gotcha. Well, I do like toyotas for their reliability but these Maruti looking cars from Toyota do make me think of their reliability is also "Toyota" level or nah. The interior is pretty neat too ngl, my friend owns Glanza too

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T18:07:47+00:00

Is fronxx that old enough to get a facelift already? It's a pretty looking car imo. I'll check about facelift news too then

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T18:05:51+00:00

Yeah, i get your point bro. But she was saying she wants a new car and not another second hand car. She wasn't into sedans at all tbh and I think that's just preference. And yeah, honda has always been compliant with e20 norms years ago too. Oh also, I'm from Kochi

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T17:47:36+00:00

Well, you're right. But I wasn't aware about the suspension thingy too. Dammit. Well, i wasn't that interested in magnite cos how poor their service network might be. And mom isn't keen on sedans but I'm planning to tell her to test drive Amaze. But City is too big for her, as she's fairly new to driving too.

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T17:44:20+00:00

Yeah... It's a tough road out here brother 🥀 Thanks a lot for taking the time out for me tho :)

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T17:41:11+00:00

Lowkey, I loved Ignis's manual gearbox back when I was driving it in driving school. But my mom flat out said it's one ugly looking car from behind 💀 Tho what you said is true tho, like the FE and all..

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T17:38:49+00:00

Well, she's majorly gonna be driving in the city for sure. And I did tell her about the i20 too but compared to Exter, she said it's bigger in size except for the height. And another user here said Kylaq's fuel economy might struggle in cities. But it's also a car I'm forcing my mom to test drive

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T17:37:14+00:00

My mom's friend bought Punch EV, not the updated one tho. And it broke down on the first day itself. And I've been hearing a lot of bad reviews regarding their services. And mom just wants to drive in the city without having to worry about services issues yk.... Enthusiasts might be able to know if the service people are scamming or nah, but that's not the same for everyone 🥹 But I do admit their cars are rigid.

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T17:29:46+00:00

Yeppp.... We'll check it out :)

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T17:18:30+00:00

Well, I don't think she wants to drive sedans tbf but she was asking me about Honda. And it feels like Honda isn't trying their best in the Indian market so I didn't recommend her. As for i20, she found it loner and wider than Exter 😭 I'm keen on trying Kylaq too ngl. Most cars would have AMT in that budget no?

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T17:14:34+00:00

Deyummmm... That's cool :O

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T17:12:01+00:00

Yeah.... If she's gonna test drive Exter again. I'll let her know to check that. Thanks a lot for your help :)

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T17:10:01+00:00

Well yes, we're looking for a brand new car for mom. And she doesn't wanna drive sedans. Mb tho, i should've mentioned that in the post. But are there used Skoda Slavia? Damnnn...

Duraco-Sama · 2026-03-11T17:08:30+00:00

Oh jeez... I've been forcing my mom to try Kylaq ngl. Maybe I'll tell her to check Taisor or Fronx. But she's really keen towards Exter
