You Can Bring Home These 5 SUVs By Diwali If You Book Right Now!

The Renault Kiger is the most affordable SUV on this list, while other options include the likes of the Skoda Kushaq

The festive season around Diwali is the preferred time to purchase a new car for many, as this festival not only brings the joy of celebration but a host of benefits and discounts. However, most popular models currently have extended waiting times, so if you haven’t booked one at least a month or two ago, you probably will not get delivery in time for the big festive day. But there are still some models that fulfil a special role, either in affordability or features or performance, that could be driven home in time for Diwali.
