    new king on roads 

    My father has been using the Mahindra XUV300 for a few months now, and it's been a mixed experience. While its compact size makes it perfect for city driving, its mileage falls short of expectations. Mahindra claims 17 km/litre, but we're only getting around 14 km/litre in urban areas. However, its peppy performance and comfortable interiors compensate for this downside. Overall, it's a decent option for small families looking for a stylish and comfortable ride within city limits.

    Awesome Car 

    Always dreamt of owning an SUV, and in November 2015, I got the Renault Duster Rxe dci. Driven it for 60,000 km. Happy for its road presence, ease of driving, good ground clearance, and fuel efficiency. But, somewhat high servicing costs and 2 instances of starting issues. Had smaller cars before. The Duster feels big compared to them and suits my simple driving style. Despite being withdrawn after BS6, it brought success to Renault. Hoping for its comeback and more good products. I've seen the Dacia Sandero and think Renault should bring it to India. Good luck to everyone on Zigwheels.
