Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which car is better Thar or Gurkha?
  • Both the cars are good in their forte. Thar looks modern with tweaked styling and improved interiors. The drivetrain includes petrol, diesel and automatic options. 4x4 is standard. Washable interiors are a nice touch. The Thar's appeal and promise to take you on great adventures is a big draw but living with it every day will still ask you to make many compromises. As a second car or for those who just need the utility of the 4x4 the Thar’s appeal is undeniable. On the other hand, Gurkha's old-school design, comfortable seating for four, pliant low-speed ride, surprisingly easy to drive in the city, and refined engine. Even when it comes to practicality it is spacious and has comfortable seating for four and unlike its main rival, the Mahindra Thar, it gets a proper boot. The engine is more refined than before, it is surprisingly easy to drive at city speeds, and the low-speed ride is very comfortable which makes it quite good for everyday commutes. But it doesn’t quite have the requisite dual personality which we’ve come to expect of modern cars. For a better understanding of compatibility and driving comfort, we would suggest you to take a test drive.

    Lexus LS: First-Class Luxury experience  

    3 month ago I bought second hand Lexus LS from my friend. The car's interiors is one of the best I ever had. The Shiro leather seats with massage functions provided immense comfort. The 23 speaker Mark Levinson surround system was phenomenal with top level of perfect sound quality. The ride was also incredibly smooth all thanks to the adaptive variable suspension and its 15 kmpl fuel efficiency was one of the point which forced me to buy this from my friend.

    smooth and steady 

    Lexus LS is one of the most convenient and efficient models in the segment of electric vehicles. With great performance and promising smooth ventures, it is affordable too. The best part is that it is easy to maintain. I have recently switched from my old model maruti swift to Lexus LS and I can totally see the difference on which I would suggest others to give it a test drive and see the magic themselves.

    victory under your name 

    Lexus LS is such a mesmerising car model that has become so popular these days for its convenience and smooth operation. So many people have this car on their wishlists and so did I and that is why I went to purchase this as soon as it was launched. Its price will range between high numbers and is great besides being a bit expensive. The mileage is good and so is the ground clearance. I have got the white colour car which looks quite attractive.

    The Refined Elegance of Lexus LS 

    Owning a Lexus LS has been an exceptional experience. From the moment I step inside the car spells sophistication. The LS model featuring a robust 3.5 liter V6 engine that outputs a substantial 416 horsepower is a testament to perfection. It is the kind of power and elegance that molds together beautifully. Driving this car through city streets and on highways it is smooth thanks to its adaptive variable suspension. The size of the Lexus LS can be a bit difficult to handle in densely populated Indian cities where navigating through tight spaces can become quite a challenge.

    Mahindra Thar: A Adventure Beauty 

    I recently took my Mahindra Thar on an unforgettable road trip to the picture perfect hills of Manali and I must tell you it was an absolute pleasure experience. The Thar has 2.2L mHawk diesel engine with the help of that it easily handled the bumpy surface like a champion. The 4x4 drivetrain was a real lifesaver on those tricky, off road sections.One of the high points of the trip was definitely the open rooftop experience which allows us to felt in love with the scenic beauty.

    everyone's favourite 

    In the matter of space, comfort and luxury, the Mahindra Thar is hands down, one of the best mahindra models. It is perfect for four people, better space and room as compared to the other mahindra models. The drive train is AWD and the most convenient part is that it gives options in transmission. One can choose manual or automatic as per their desire. Its turbocharged engine is powerful. It is very expensive going and is also suitable for off roading.

    A True Off-Roader with Room for Improvement 

    My adventures over the past six months with the new Mahindra Thar have been nothing short of spectacular. This rugged machine, equipped with a 2.2-liter mHawk diesel engine, which delivers a decent 130 PS and a robust 300 Nm of torque is built to tackle any terrain. The 4x4 capability means that muddy fields and rocky paths are a breeze for Thar.Though the Thar shines off road, daily driving paints a different picture. For starters, its heavy steering and firm suspension can make regular city commutes quite a task.
