I need to replace my old hatchback with something bigger. I have a budget of around ₹10-15 lakh and need a 6 or 7-seater car for my family in Mumbai. What would you suggest?

CarBikeGPT Says: For your needs and budget, the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga is a great option. It's one of the most practical and value-for-money 7-seaters you can buy in India right now.
The Ertiga really shines in terms of space and practicality. The third row is actually usable, even for adults on shorter trips around Mumbai. Plus, it’s easy to drive in the city thanks to its light steering and good visibility. And when you don't need all the seats, folding down the rear row gives you a massive boot perfect for airport runs with luggage or those big family shopping trips.
Of course, there are other options like the Renault Triber or the Maruti Suzuki XL6. The Triber is more affordable but the Ertiga offers better space and a more refined driving experience. The XL6 is more premium, but you lose out on the middle row seat which might be important for you. Honestly, for a balance of space, practicality, and budget, we'd pick the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. It’s a solid, reliable choice that won’t disappoint.
