1. Renault Kwid

The first representative in the list of best cars under Rs. 6 lakh in India is the Renault Kwid. The French auto manufacturer’s entry-level hatchback is a competitor in the fiercely competitive A-segment Indian hatchback segment, where Maruti Suzuki has been dominating for quite a long time. Regardless of this, the Renault Kwid has attained a great deal of success in the Indian auto market, thanks to its futuristic styling. Another unique selling point of the Renault Kwid is its long list of equipment.

3. Maruti Alto K10

The other Maruti representative in our list is the Maruti Alto K10, the 1.0-litre version of the Alto hatchback. The K10 is an ideal hatchback for the people who are looking for a powerful small car but on a tight budget. Despite not being a true performance car, thanks to the light kerb weight, the Alto K10 has an impressive power to weight ratio, which gives the car a wonderful acceleration. Like the Wagon R, the Alto K10 gets an AMT option, which makes city driving in the car such a simple task.

4. Datsun Go+

Since its launch in 2015, Datsun Go+ has been the most affordable MPV in our list of top cars under Rs. 6 lakh in India. The Go+ is a reasonably priced vehicle, which can accommodate the whole family. Despite being most suitable for children, the rear seat row can also accommodate adults; nevertheless, they can hardly feel comfortable during the journey. The MPV recently got a complete update with a restyled front and more modern design. The cabin gets an all-new layout with a touchscreen infotainment unit. While the Go+ is not exactly a 7-seater MPV, it is a greatly practical vehicle which can provide enough space for a large family.

5. Hyundai Santro

Being a great success in its previous model, the Hyundai Santro has made a comeback with a totally new exterior and interior design along with new powertrains as well. The hatchback receives its power from the same 1.1­-litre 4-cylinder motor like the outgoing model but now with different power and torque figures (69PS and 99Nm). The car also gets Hyundai’s AMT gearbox called “Smart-Auto”, which keeps up with the current trends in the market. The interior features of the car have also received a complete overhaul.

6. Maruti Wagon R

There is no need to introduce the Maruti Wagon R. This iconic hatchback has been available in the Indian market since 1999 and has recorded quite a lot of prestige. Establishing the tall-boy design in the country, the Wagon R has recorded a sales number of over 2 million units. The third-gen Maruti Wagon R, which is specifically designed for India, is powered by two BSVI-compliant petrol motors: an 83 PS 1.2-litre motor and a 68 PS 1.0-litre unit. The new Wagon R is also equipped with some updated comfort and safety features.

7. Maruti Celerio X

Being a more rugged version of the Maruti Celerio, the Celerio X attracted a lot of attention with the introduction of the AMT transmission. Generally, the Celerio X is not different from the standard Celerio, except for the paint scheme and body kit. The Celerio X comes with a restyled front and rear bumper, a black roof rail and a glossy new rim. The flashy paint scheme also highlights its road presence and makes it more eye-catchy. Despite getting only some cosmetic slight tweaks, it is undeniable that the Celerio has a much more appealing appearance than the regular version.
