Asked by: Vaibhav Sharma I’m planning to buy the Toyota Innova Hycross soon. With the recent GST rate cuts on larger cars, how much has the price dropped, and is it the right time to book? Or should I look at Scorpio-N instead, since the GST cut benefit might be more beneficial there? If you are considering the Toyota Innova Hycross, the GST rate cut has lowered prices, though the impact differs across trims. The entry-level G and GX variants are now more affordable by just over ₹1 lakh, while the hybrid range gets a smaller reduction of about ₹60,000 to ₹68,000. The Mahindra Scorpio N sees a steeper drop under the new GST rates, with prices now ranging from ₹12.6 lakh to ₹24.2 lakh (ex-showroom). The Mahindra Scorpion N GST rate cut makes the benefit more noticeable compared with the Hycross. So, if your priority is the Hycross for its space, comfort, and hybrid efficiency, the price cut is a welcome bonus and worth booking now. But if you are cross-shopping, the Scorpio N does gain a stronger value advantage post-GST, especially if budget stretch is a concern.

Asked by: Rajat Verma I am planning to buy a new car this Diwali, and I’m open to all body styles – sedan, hatchback, or SUV. My top priority is safety, so I want nothing less than a 5-star Global NCAP/Bharat NCAP-rated car. Naturally, Tata Cars are on my shortlist. But I’m a bit confused about the recent GST rate cut – how much difference will it actually make on the price of models like the Nexon, Curvv, or Safari? Is this the right time to book, or should I wait for official price updates from Tata? Tata Motors has announced potential price reductions on its cars, effective 22nd September 2025, following the revised GST rates. The Tata Nexon could see a cut of up to ₹1.55 lakh, the Curvv up to ₹65,000, and the Safari up to ₹1.45 lakh. While these are indicative figures, festive demand is expected to rise, so booking now can help secure your preferred Tata car. The exact on road price will be confirmed once Tata releases the official rates, so check with a nearby showroom before finalising. Asked by: Rohan I want to upgrade my current car. My budget is 15 lakhs, and the car must be an automatic with six airbags and produce at least 100 bhp. I'm confused between the Skoda Kylaq Signature Plus AT, the Kia Sonet HTX DCT, and the Mahindra 3XO REVX AT. Any suggestions? If you enjoy driving, the Skoda Kylaq is the one to get. Its engine-gearbox combination, as well as its driving dynamics, are more engaging than the other options listed. That said, if you frequently travel with three or four adults, the Mahindra XUV 3XO will be more comfortable, on account of its spacious interior. The XUV 3XO rides and handles surprisingly well, too, although its light steering doesn't instil as much confidence as the Skoda's. So the Mahindra XUV 3XO is more rounded, while the Kylaq is more fun to drive. Can’t decide which car to buy? Ask our experts and get answers to all your car related queries. Ask experts
