Q. Which version would be the best to buy in Creta base model, either a petrol base or a diesel? I am being confused between them as there is a price difference of about 80k something on road and my usage will be maximum of 1000 to 1500 kms in a month. Please drop your suggestions.Thanks in advance.

Selecting the right fuel type depends on your utility and the average running of the car. If you drive less than 50km in a day then we recommend you to go with a petrol car as they are easy to maintain, have a longer life span and they cost less initially than the diesel car. On the other hand, diesel cars are preferred if the average daily run is more than 50km which makes it a feasible purchase. Diesel cars are more fuel-efficient and provide more torque, therefore, are preferred for a person who drives more than 50km. Whereas, the petrol engine has a low service cost, more life span, generally have a well-controlled NVH level and are cheaper in cost than the diesel engines.
