Best All-Rounder SUV for Mixed City-Rural Use in India 2024

Looking for a versatile SUV that can handle both city and rural roads - which would you pick?

I frequently travel between Mumbai's corporate hubs and construction sites in Maharashtra's rural areas. Need an SUV that looks professional for client meetings but won't struggle on rough patches and village roads. Budget isn't the main concern, but reliability and ground clearance are crucial. Currently comparing these options - what's your take on the best all-rounder?

I recently test drove a friend's old Duster and was impressed by how solid it felt compared to newer cars. With the new Duster coming soon, I'm curious how it'll stack up against today's safety-focused SUVs. Looking for opinions on which SUV in this price range feels the most robust and secure - especially important given our road conditions and highway speeds.

I'm in the market for a mid-size SUV and keep hearing about the new Duster coming in 2025. The original was fantastic on rough roads, and I'm tempted to wait. But with Creta, Seltos, and Grand Vitara offering so many features now, I'm unsure. I do lots of highway trips and need good ground clearance. Budget around ₹15-18 lakh. What would you suggest?

I'm torn between waiting for the new Duster (loved the old one's build quality and ride) or going for current options. Need something that can handle rough roads near my hometown and weekend highway trips. Budget isn't a huge concern, but wondering if the new Duster will be worth the wait vs established players like Creta or Seltos that offer tons of features now.
