I am looking for my first car with a budget of under Rs. 10 lakh. My usage will be mostly city driving in Bangalore, with occasional long trips. I prefer an AMT or CVT transmission with a petrol engine. Please suggest the best car for my needs within this

For a first car that will primarily be used in Bangalore, the i20 Sportz IVT is the most suitable choice within your budget. The 1.2-litre petrol engine paired with the CVT is smooth and easy to drive in traffic, while the i20 offers a comfortable, refined cabin and enough space for a small family. The Sportz IVT is also well equipped without requiring you to stretch to the higher variants.The Honda Amaze V CVT would be our second choice. Its 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine and CVT are similarly smooth, and the sedan offers a 416-litre boot and a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating. It is particularly worth considering if you expect to carry luggage on your occasional long trips.
