New Delhi. Buying a new car that fits within the budget can be a bit confusing at times, especially for those who are buying a car for the first time and are just learning about the engine, mileage and features. If you want to buy the base variant of Maruti Suzuki Dezire, which is called Dezire LXi MT, but you do not know what is available in it, then let us understand what you will get for Rs 6,25,600 (ex-showroom).
What is Maruti Suzuki Dezire LXi MT? Maruti Suzuki Dezire is one of India's best-selling compact sedans, known for its comfort, fuel efficiency and low maintenance costs. The LXi MT is the base petrol variant, meaning it is the cheapest Dezire you can buy. Despite being a base model, it offers a good combination of safety, space and everyday needs.
1.2-litre Z12E petrol engine Desire LXi MT has a 1.2-litre Z12E petrol engine, which has a capacity of 1197cc. This 3-cylinder engine gives power of 81.58 PS and torque of 111.7 Nm, which is enough for city driving and occasional highway trips. It has a 5-speed manual gearbox, which is easy to use and reliable.
mileage The biggest feature for new buyers is mileage. The Dezire LXi MT returns an ARAI-certified fuel efficiency of approximately 24.79 kmpl, making it one of the most fuel efficient petrol sedans in its segment. It also has Idle Start-Stop technology, which automatically switches off the engine at traffic signals to save fuel.
Space and practicality Despite its compact size, Desire is quite practical. Its length is 3995 mm, making it easy to drive and park in congested cities. Inside, this car provides comfortable seating for five people and has a large boot space of 382 litres, which is enough for luggage for a family trip. The 37 liter fuel tank ensures less fuel stops on long drives.
Ride, suspension and braking For everyday comfort, the Dezire has a MacPherson strut suspension at the front and a torsion beam setup at the rear, which can easily handle the potholes on Indian roads. For braking, disc brakes are provided at the front and drum brakes at the rear, which provide safe and reliable stopping power.
Security In terms of safety, the Desire LXi MT really impresses. It has 6 airbags as standard, which is found in very few cars at this price. This car has also received a 5-star safety rating from Bharat NCAP, which gives peace of mind to families. Other safety features include ABS with EBD, Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Hill Hold Control, ISOFIX child seat mounts, rear parking sensors and engine immobilizer.
Comfort and basic features Although it does not have a touchscreen or advanced technology, all the necessary features are provided in Desire LXi MT. You get manual air conditioning with heater, all four power windows, keyless entry, tilt-adjustable steering and dual-tone fabric interior. This car runs on 14-inch steel wheels, which keeps the cost low and durability high.
New Delhi. If you are thinking of buying your first car and want something economical, easy to drive and fuel efficient car, then it is possible that your eyes will be on Maruti Suzuki. The company's two most popular entry-level hatchbacks are – Maruti Suzuki Celerio and Maruti Suzuki WagonR. Both are trusted names on Indian roads, but they are aimed at slightly different types of buyers.
price The starting price of Maruti Suzuki Celerio is Rs 4,69,900 (ex-showroom), making it one of the most affordable petrol cars in India. Whereas, the starting price of Maruti Suzuki WagonR is Rs 4,98,900 (ex-showroom), but more variants and engine options are available in it. If your budget is limited and value for every rupee matters, then Celerio is slightly ahead here.
Engine and Performance Celerio has a 998cc, 3-cylinder K10C petrol engine, which gives about 67 bhp power and 89 Nm torque. CNG variant is also available in it. You can choose between a 5-speed manual or AMT automatic gearbox, which is great for city driving.
More options in WagonR Whereas, in WagonR you get more options. It has a 1.0-litre engine, which gives the same power as the Celerio, or you can also choose a 1.2-litre petrol engine, which gives power up to 88.5 bhp. This makes the WagonR feel more powerful, especially when driving with the family or on the highway. CNG variants are also available in this.
mileage The biggest reason for buying Maruti cars is mileage. Celerio petrol variant gives a mileage of up to 26 km per liter, while Celerio CNG can go up to 34.43 km per kg. On the other hand, the mileage of WagonR petrol is up to 24.43 km per liter and the CNG variant can reach around 34.73 km per kg.
Size, space and comfort The Celerio is slightly longer and wider, which makes its look and feel more car-like. However, the WagonR is quite tall, which gives it more headroom and makes the cabin feel spacious. WagonR is more comfortable for tall passengers. WagonR has a large boot space of 341 litres, while Celerio focuses on compactness.
Features and safety Both cars have basic features like power windows, keyless entry and touchscreen infotainment, which come in the top variants. There has also been improvement in terms of safety and the new variants come with features like 6 airbags, ABS and rear parking sensors.
Which car to buy? Both the cars are reliable, easy to maintain and perfect for first-time car buyers. The final decision depends on whether you give more importance to fuel efficiency and price or space and flexibility.

New Delhi. Maruti Suzuki maintained its unmatched leadership in calendar year 2025 – with sales of 18,33,748 units by the end of the year. The brand continued to dominate month after month, driven by its large portfolio, which ranges from entry-level hatchbacks to high volume SUVs. Demand for 2.50 lakh units during the festive season in October and consistently good monthly sales kept Maruti Suzuki well ahead of its rivals. Telangana contributed around 49,000 units – further boosting the company's overall figures as per vehicle registration data. The Indo-Japanese manufacturer launched the Victoris midsize SUV a few months ago, which has received a good response from customers. The SUV range will soon get further expansion with the arrival of Brezza facelift and e Vitara.
Mahindra at number 2 Mahindra & Mahindra secured second position with 6,07,447 units in the last calendar year.

Mahindra did wonders, left Tata-Hyundai behind, became India's number 2 company
BYD has overtaken Tesla to become the world's biggest EV seller after the US automaker projected sales to decline by nearly 9 percent in 2025.
BYD overtakes Tesla to become world's top electric vehicle seller

Chinese EV giant BYD Co overtook Tesla Inc to take the title of the world's number one electric vehicle seller after the US-based company reported a nearly 9 per cent decline in annual sales. Tesla's second consecutive decline in annual sales comes amid the expiration of US tax credits for EV purchases as well as the political influence of CEO Elon Musk. The company expects to sell 1.6 million EVs in 2025 after reporting a 16 percent decline in deliveries during the fourth quarter.
By contrast, BYD reported a 28 percent increase in EV sales to 2.64 million, with slightly less than half of its portfolio being electric. Its total sales increased by 7.7 percent at the end of the year, bringing its global lineup to 4.6 million.
For years, Tesla has been way ahead of its rivals in the EV sector, be it development or sales. With the rate at which the market has grown in the last decade, the scope of competition has increased significantly. At the same time, the rise of Chinese EV makers on the global stage has proven detrimental to the sales figures of brands in the rest of the world.

Tesla's troubles and the way forward
The recent outrage over Elon Musk's entry into US politics and its association with the Donald Trump-led presidency has hurt Tesla shares significantly. (Reuters)
Tesla sales in the fourth quarter have been hit by the expiration of a $7,500 EV subsidy that was phased out by the Donald Trump-led administration. During the period, it sold 4,18,227 units globally, which was below analysts' expectations. Model 3 and Model Y EVs accounted for more than 90 percent of the total.
The brand faced widespread criticism over Musk's embrace of American politics and his association with the Trump presidency and later leading the controversial Department of Government Efficiency. DOGE was established to cut down on 'wasteful' federal spending and bureaucracy. To date, it has canceled thousands of federal contracts and grants worth billions, and these include more than 5,000 USAID grants, awards and contracts, as well as millions in research and education grants.
Musk's political support and DOGE leadership have significantly hurt Tesla's sales, drawing criticism from environmentalists and environmentally conscious buyers and prompting protests at facilities. As of May 2025, Musk has resigned from his leadership role at the agency, in what is largely seen as a move to ease investor outrage. The CEO is now repositioning Tesla to become a major player in future autonomous vehicles, AI and humanoid robots.
Meanwhile, a new top dog in the EV sector is trying to secure its position on the throne. BYD is currently preparing to launch a facelift and a series of new-gen models to keep things fresh amid competition from other Chinese players like Geely, SAIC and Xiaomi.

The option of manual or automatic transmission will be available with both engines. The top-end variant of the XUV700 gets an all-wheel-drive configuration, which will likely be continued in the XUV 7XO as well.

Tata Motors released the teaser of Punch facelift, which will be launched on 13 January 2026. It will get a new design, 360-degree camera, new features and the same engine options. Tata Punch is not only included in the company's line up but also among the most popular SUV models of India. It has also become India's bestselling car many times.
New Delhi. Tata Motors has officially released the teaser of the facelifted version of the Punch, confirming that the updated entry-level SUV will be launched on January 13, 2026. This is the first major update for the ICE-powered Punch after its launch in 2021 and is aimed at keeping the model competitive in the micro-SUV segment. In this update, major changes have been made in both design and features.
Tata Punch facelift: Key design changes The teaser image shows that the design of the 2026 Tata Punch facelift is more modern and premium than before, with many design elements taken from the electric version of the Punch, the Punch.ev, and Tata's new SUVs. At the front, the facelifted Punch gets a completely new bumper with thick black cladding and a silver-accented air dam. There are slim air intake slits at the top, while functional looking air curtains are provided in the lower corners.
New Delhi. Toyota Innova was the car that defined the MPV segment in India. The Innova and Innova Crysta together have ruled this segment for the last two decades, but now it looks like this MPV is moving towards the end of its life cycle. According to the report of Autocar, Toyota is preparing to discontinue Innova Crysta MPV from the market by March 2027.
Why will Innova Crysta be discontinued? Why? The Innova Crysta continues to be popular among buyers who want a sensible, no-fuss premium MPV that is reliable. However, the Crysta is being discontinued due to the upcoming strict CAFE 3 regulations. Toyota has already made a strategy for these new rules and has chosen petrol hybrids as its path. More hybrid products will be seen in Toyota's lineup at the upcoming MENAX. Innova Highcross is an example of this.
hybrid portfolio The hybrid portfolio will give Toyota super credits, which are beneficial for any carmaker, especially when it aims to meet CAFE 3 regulations. Each pure hybrid vehicle counts as two vehicles in the CAFE calculation, making it easier for the company to meet its fleet's CO₂ targets. Currently, each Innova HighCross Hybrid sold by Toyota is reducing the company's corporate average fuel consumption by twice as much as diesel SUVs and MPVs.
What will happen to Fortuner? If compared with other models, diesel MPVs like Innova Crysta contribute to increasing fuel consumption, and this is the reason why Toyota has decided to discontinue the Crysta. What next? As mentioned above, Toyota will now focus more on petrol hybrids under CAFE regulations. It is not yet clear whether Toyota will completely discontinue diesel engines from all its models, such as the Fortuner. Although Innova HighCross is present in the market, it seems that it will not be able to completely fill the void left by the departure of Innova Crysta. You might remember that Toyota had removed Innova Crysta from the market in 2025.
Innova Highcross This decision was taken at the time of launch of Innova Highcross. But when the HiCross was launched, Toyota faced many problems like semiconductor shortage. When the company saw that the waiting period for Innova High Cross was long and the demand for Innova Crysta or diesel MPV still remained, Toyota decided to launch Crysta again in the market.
relaunch of christa However, compared to the older version, the relaunched Crysta came only with a diesel engine and a manual gearbox. It was provided with a 2.4-litre turbo-diesel engine, which was in accordance with the current emission norms. Automatic transmission was deliberately not given, because the company knew that it would affect the sales of Innova Highcross. Overall, Toyota does not have any true alternative to Innova Crysta and now it has to be seen whether companies like Mahindra, Tata or Hyundai bring a new MPV in this segment or not, so that the needs of the customers can be met.

टाटा मोटर्स को छेड़ा है मुक्का अपने आधिकारिक सोशल मीडिया हैंडल के माध्यम से नया रूप। हमने जो भविष्यवाणी की थी उससे काफी मेल खाता है पिछला लेखटाटा ने यह भी पुष्टि की कि उसकी सब-4-मीटर एसयूवी के नवीनतम अवतार का अनावरण 13 जनवरी, 2026 को किया जाएगा। आइए अब 2026 टाटा पंच के कुछ डिज़ाइन पहलुओं पर नज़र डालें, जैसा कि आधिकारिक टीज़र में पता चला है।
2021 में लॉन्च के बाद से ICE-संचालित पंच के लिए पहला बड़ा अपडेट।
इसमें एक संशोधित फ्रंट फेशिया, दोबारा डिज़ाइन किए गए अलॉय व्हील और नई एलईडी लाइटें हैं।
मैकेनिकली प्री-फेसलिफ्ट मॉडल के समान ही रहेगा।
2026 टाटा पंच बाहरी डिजाइन और विशेषताएं
फेसलिफ्ट की स्टाइलिंग ज्यादातर अनोखी है, कुछ संकेत इसके ईवी समकक्ष से लिए गए हैं।
टीज़र में 2026 टाटा पंच के फ्रंट फेसिया को दिखाया गया है, जिसमें ब्लैक क्लैडिंग के साथ एक पूरी तरह से नया बम्पर और एयर डैम के लिए सिल्वर सराउंड शामिल है। बम्पर के ऊपरी हिस्से में दोहरे एयर-इनटेक स्लिट हैं, जबकि इसके निचले कोनों में एयर पर्दे हैं। इनके ऊपर पंच फेसलिफ्ट की नई लंबवत-स्टैक्ड एलईडी हेडलाइट्स हैं, जैसा कि पंच ईवी पर देखा गया है। जहां बाद वाले में एक पूर्ण-चौड़ाई वाली एलईडी बार होती है, वहीं आईसीई-संचालित पंच फेसलिफ्ट को बीच में एक ब्लैक ट्रिम मिलता है, जिसके किनारे चिकने एलईडी डीआरएल होते हैं।
पंच फेसलिफ्ट के टॉप ट्रिम्स नए अलॉय व्हील्स के साथ आएंगे, जिनका डिज़ाइन मौजूदा मॉडल की तुलना में अधिक जटिल दिखता है। पीछे की तरफ, 2026 टाटा पंच में ब्लैक प्लास्टिक ट्रिम में कनेक्टेड टेललाइट्स सेट हैं। अंत में, पंच फेसलिफ्ट के सामने और टेलगेट पर देखा गया टाटा लोगो प्री-फेसलिफ्ट मॉडल से अलग है। जैसा कि पहले के जासूसी शॉट्स में देखा गया था, 2026 पंच पुराने मॉडल के सामान्य सिल्हूट को बरकरार रखेगा जबकि खरीदारों को कम से कम कुछ नए रंग विकल्प प्रदान करेगा।
2026 टाटा पंच पावरट्रेन
नैचुरली एस्पिरेटेड पेट्रोल मिल अपरिवर्तित रहेगी।
पंच फेसलिफ्ट में 1.2-लीटर तीन-सिलेंडर पेट्रोल इंजन होगा जो प्री-फेसलिफ्ट मॉडल को पावर देता है। जब केवल पेट्रोल से ईंधन भरा जाता है, तो यह लगभग 88hp और 115Nm का टॉर्क पैदा करता है, जबकि CNG पर चलने पर यह आंकड़ा 73.5hp और 103Nm तक गिर जाता है। केवल पेट्रोल वेरिएंट वर्तमान में 5-स्पीड एएमटी और 5-स्पीड मैनुअल के विकल्प के साथ उपलब्ध हैं, जबकि सीएनजी वेरिएंट में केवल मैनुअल गियरबॉक्स मिलता है – यह फेसलिफ्ट के साथ नहीं बदलेगा।
2026 टाटा पंच अपेक्षित कीमत
2026 टाटा पंच की कीमत बेस ट्रिम के लिए लगभग 6.00 लाख रुपये होने की उम्मीद है, जो रेंज-टॉपिंग ट्रिम के लिए लगभग 9.50 लाख रुपये तक है। संदर्भ के लिए, मौजूदा मॉडल की कीमत बेस और टॉप ट्रिम के लिए क्रमशः 5.50 लाख रुपये और 9.30 लाख रुपये के बीच है। टाटा पंच के निकटतम प्रतिद्वंद्वी हैं सिट्रोएन C3, मारुति सुजुकी इग्निस और हुंडई एक्सटर.
