I own a Mercedes ML250 cdi and a Honda city. I am looking a for a car that has lots of features, power etc. between 10-25 lakhs.
Given that you own a Mercedes ML250 CDI and a Honda City, you're likely accustomed to both comfort and performance. In the ₹10–25 lakh range, consider options like the Mahindra XUV700 or Hyundai Tucson, which offer a strong blend of power, features, and premium feel without compromising on value.

i drive around 100 -120 Km per week. I am planning to buy XUV700 Ax7. can i buy a diesel version of this car. i am reading about Diesel Particulate Filter problem. Please guide. Will it be an expensive maintenance for me
If you drive only 100–120 km per week, primarily in the city, the diesel variant of the XUV700 may not be ideal due to potential Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) clogging issues from low-speed, short-distance driving. Consider the petrol version instead, as it may offer lower maintenance costs and fewer DPF-related concerns for your usage pattern

Hai autocar, I am looking to replace the current S class to a new sedan,in my mind now the new 7 series,but more than 30 years I am using the S class only,the current shape i don't like ,what your opinion
If you’ve been loyal to the S-Class for over 30 years but aren't fond of the current design, the new BMW 7 Series is a worthy alternative with cutting-edge tech and a bold presence. We recommend a test drive to see if its driving dynamics and luxury features align with your expectations.

I am confused between Skoda Salavia, Skoda Kushaq, MG Astore and N Live Creta petrol. I want to keep for 15 Years. Cannot decide. Skoda Salavia is comming with a facelift as well. I can wait till 2026 also. Kindly Advice.
you're ready to buy now, new Creta petrol is your safest long-term bet. If you're not in a hurry and really like Skoda, waiting for the Slavia facelift in 2026 makes sense.

I am planning to buy Petrol automatic 7 seater car. Requirement: Decent power major runs will be on Highways with family Spacious to accommodate 6/7 people with luggage Reliable, will keep car for minimum 12 to 13 years Budget: 20 to 23 Lakhs On road Shortlisted: Kia Carens Clavis XUV 700 HyCross Non-Hybrid variant Please guide me which one will be the good one for me. Thanks, Deepak Bhat
Go for Innova HyCross (non-hybrid) if reliability and long ownership are key. If you want performance and modern tech, XUV700 is a solid second.

I found S cross petrol zeta 2022 model, 40k driven 1st owner, selling cost is 8.93k. Is it good deal ?
Seems like a decent deal if the car is in good condition with full service history. Price is slightly above average — try negotiating to around ₹8.5–8.6L. Make sure to check tyres, brakes, and get it inspected before finalizing.

My policy(icici Lombard), which is currently active, carries a No Claim Bonus (NCB) of 45%. However, ICICI Lombard claims department has rejected my claim citing that my previous insurance was a third-party only policy with 0% NCB, and therefore, the current NCB is not valid. My car met a accident on may 12.. They are rejecting my claim due to this.. Will you be able to help.. Thanks
NCB is granted only when a policyholder has a comprehensive policy with no claims in the previous year. If your earlier insurer indeed issued only a third-party policy, then technically, the NCB of 45% on your current policy may not be valid, which unfortunately can impact the legitimacy of your claim in India.
