Cars Under 5 Lakh in India

A budget of five lakh buys real everyday convenience. These small, light hatchbacks and runabouts are built for quick city movement, easy parking and low running costs, so you travel on your own schedule instead of waiting on buses and autos. They work just as well as a first car or as a second car that keeps the household moving.

Every figure on this page is ex showroom, so plan for road tax, insurance and registration on top. Look closely at the safety kit and the fuel type, since a factory fitted CNG option can cut your running cost sharply if your daily distance is high.
