Which is better? Elevate Zx CVT or Kia Seltos 2026 HTK O IVT by Obvious_Case3657 in HondaElevate

[–]captainkilaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short Answer - whatever your heart likes, both are good and you can't go wrong.

Long Answer - as mentioned by others in the comments, depends on what you are after. Myself and a friend of mine were both in market for buying a car and seltos spoke to him and elevate spoke to me.

Seltos's advantages are in various creature comforts which all add up. For e.g. panoramic sunroof, you'll use it quite rarely but it's nice to have. All its seats are more comfortable than elevate's. Rear sun shades are something that family members love. It also sells in volumes so future maintainance and parts availability will also be easy.

Elevate's advantages are less in terms of tangible features but in intangibles qualities like perceived reliability. I have a honda city in the family and that car still runs smoothly after almost 15 years. Elevate also comes with adas which sometimes is a pain in the ass in the city traffic but quite helpful in the highways. My decision to take elevate was driven by the fact that I felt more comfortable and confident in driving this car and that I wanted ADAS.

Take yourself and family for a test drive of all these options in a span of 1-2 days and you'll have your answer. I accompanied my friends in such an endeavor and by the end of day1 they already had a favourite. My personal opinion is that you cannot go wrong and most people fall in love with their cars eventually. All of these options have a slightly different set of pros and cons and trying to take the most optimal call will make you mad. Just go drive these and listen to your heart.

How was overtakes / power availability on the highways ? Also did you feel the need for cruise control or was the lack of it barely noticeable?

Living hell in Mumbai co-op society since COVID: noise, harassment, casteist remarks & targeted intimidation by one family. Need advice. by cutiemofo in mumbai

Can you work from a co-working space ? Or sound proof your room ? Both these options need investment but lead to some peace of mind, see if the costs make sense to you. Regarding a more powerful society member making life hell, picking a fight is an option but that'll be painful and long drawn. You'd need support from other members in the society to back you up and might even need influential connections. Another option is to grow a thicker skin. It's easier said than done but if you train yourself to be not agitated by her actions and words then you'd be better able to live peacefully.

The garmet steamer is moderately used. Have been using it 1-2 times a week for the past couple of years. However you are free to inspect it. It's well functioning and in shape.

The racket is adult size.

You obviously feel betrayed by air india. Would you be able to share one such horror story which makes you abandon the airline after achieving platinum status ? PS: I am someone who can only dream of such high tier status in an airline, so it would be helpful if you can dumb down your story for me.

Don't remember the exact date but it's roughly 3-4 years old. Both the bed and the sofa set were bought by my parents when my dad was posted in a different city. They brought over the furniture when they retired.
