The entry-level
Maruti Swift is a great option, especially since this is your first vehicle, due to its smoothness, light controls, and
Maruti's extensive support network, which promises a hassle-free ownership experience.
If you want an SUV-like vehicle, the
Tata Punch 1.2P is an excellent choice, and the
Pure Rhythm variant will fall within your budget. It scores well in terms of highway ride comfort and safety; however, performance isn't its strong suit.
