    Guys,
    Need help. My wife and I are planning to upgrade our beloved Honda City 2006. We are focusing on the factors of the vehicle's seating capacity(around 6-8 persons), comfortable long distance driving(quiet engine), fuel efficient(leaning on diesel variants), long term use and less expensive in maintenance.

    What would be your suggestions guys? Our budget is around 16-17k monthly and DP of 380,000.

    Thank you so much

    You did not mention how many years you are willing to pay for it. The safest choice should be a Toyota Innova.

    I'd also recommend the Nissan Grand Livina as an alternative.

    You might also be interested to take a look at the Kia Carens. Comfortable, can seat 7, at has a powerful yet efficient engine to boot.

    Innova.

    5-10 years from now, parts availability would not be a problem with so many units sold you can expect support from Toyota or a third party manufacturer.
