Maruti Suzuki Baleno/Toyota Glanza CVT
Moving a little higher up the budget range into the premium hatchback segment, the Maruti Suzuki Baleno really stands out with its fantastic mileage with its petrol automatic variants. The Baleno is powered by a 1.2L, four-cylinder engine that produces 83hp and 113Nm of torque. However, unlike other cars in this list as of yet, the Baleno comes mated to a CVT gearbox and it returns a mileage of 19kpl in mixed driving conditions. Sadly, Maruti Suzuki does not offer the smart-hybrid system with the automatic version of the Baleno. The automatic variants of the Maruti Suzuki Baleno are priced from Rs 7.77 lakh to Rs 8.96 lakh.

Honda Amaze CVT
The Honda Amaze has grown hugely popular in its second generation as it marks a significant improvement over its predecessor. It’s looks may be quite polarizing and while its decently equipped on the interiors, it just lacks the flare of some of its modern counterparts. Still, what makes it stand out is its great value for money and it is also the most affordable sedan to be available with a CVT gearbox in India currently. The 1.2-litre i-VTEC petrol motor of the Honda Amaze CVT makes 90hp and 110Nm of peak torque. The fuel efficiency of the Honda Amaze CVT with the petrol engine is rated at 17kpl.
