In your Rs 10 lakh budget, the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga LXi is your best. It is quite spacious and can comfortably seat seven adults, and its 1.5-litre petrol engine is refined and efficient. Also, with light controls, good visibility, and smooth power delivery, this Maruti car is very user-friendly, too.
Another option is the Renault Triber, which is surprisingly spacious, despite its smaller dimensions. You’ll also get more features with the Triber, in your budget, hence from a value point of view, it is a better option.
However, the Triber’s 1.0-litre petrol engine doesn’t feel as effortless as the Maruti’s 1.5-litre. Its engine of this Renault car works best for sedate driving, but on the highway. It feels underpowered, especially with a full load of passengers. Hence, if you drive regularly on the highway, go for the Ertiga instead.
