These upcoming cars will reduce your running cost

Mileage has always been an important selling point in India. Thus we have the popular phrase “Kitna deti hai”. But the rising fuel prices have forced everyone to think about running costs. Diesel cars do provide decent mileage, but the upcoming emission norms are a major barrier for a lot of people. The next option is to buy a CNG or a hybrid car. CNG or hybrid cars can be good alternatives before we transition into EVs. In today’s article, we will see upcoming cars with low running costs. 

Cars with value for money base variants

Maruti Swift (CNG)

The Maruti Swift has been a popular car in India since its launch in 2005. It is known for its sporty looks and high fuel efficiency. But it lacks a CNG option, its rivals like the Grand i10 Nios and Tata Tiago both come with CNG options. Considering Maruti’s push for CNG cars, we can expect the Swift CNG to come in the upcoming months.   

Upcoming cars with low running cost- Tata Punch CNG

The Punch has started well on the sales chart for Tata Motors. It is popular for its high safety rating and ground clearance. But Tata can make it an even better product by offering a CNG option. It recently launched the Tiago CNG and Tigor CNG. So we can expect more CNG cars from Tata Motors. 

Who should buy the Tata Punch?

Honda City Hybrid

The Honda City is Honda’s most successful car in India. Honda is working on bringing a hybrid variant for the City. The Honda City hybrid will be based on Honda’s e:HEV hybrid technology. It will come with the same 1.5-litre petrol engine, but the hybrid tech will give it a performance boost. It is expected to deliver a fuel efficiency of around 27kmpl. 

New-generation Brezza (hybrid & CNG)

The Brezza was the best selling SUV of 2021. But still, the car has gotten a bit outdated and Maruti is working on an all-new Vitara Brezza. Maruti wants customers to have a lot of choices. So it is working on both a CNG Brezza and a hybrid Brezza. It will provide the CNG option on the lower variants, while the top variants will get the hybrid setup. Such a strategy can be quite beneficial for people looking for good mileage. 

Government plans on shifting to methanol fuel

Upcoming cars with low running costMaruti-Toyota midsize SUV (hybrid)

Maruti and Toyota are working on a midsize SUV. With this SUV, Maruti and Toyota are targeting both the C-segment and midsize SUV segment. Considering Toyota’s push for hybrid tech, we expect a hybrid option on this SUV. This hybrid setup will make it one of the most fuel-efficient SUVs in the market. It is expected to provide a mileage of over 30kmpl.
