Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which is better, Tata Harrier or Maruti XL6?
  • Both cars are good in their own forte. Tata Harrier has got the design to impress, and save for some minor misses it’s well-equipped too. It’s definitely the one to pick if you want the big SUV experience, or if you want to be chauffeured around to work. Yes, it’s not the easiest to drive inside the city (and that's largely down to its big size), but we reckon one can get used to it over time. It’s the one that currently offers the best blend of city and highway drivability. On the other hand, the updates to the XL6 make it a better family MPV. Especially the added safety and convenience features are a welcome addition. The redesigned front face packs more attitude and offers a better road presence with new safety and premium features are a welcome addition. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test drive before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
