Q. Shall I wait for xuv400 or buy xuv300 now? I’m planning on buying xuv300 w8(o) diesel. Or should I consider other options.
  • It would be too early to give a verdict as Mahindra XUV 400 is not launched yet. And, if we talk about Mahindra’s XUV300 is easily the brand’s best sub-4 meter SUV yet. It’s got the style and the substance to make your heart want it, but your head might think otherwise looking at the space on offer. Mahindra XUV300 is currently available in Petrol and Diesel engines. The 1197 cc Petrol engine generates a power of 108.6bhp@5000rpm and torque of 200Nm@2000-3500rpm. The 1497 cc Diesel engine generates a power of 115bhp@3750rpm and torque of 300Nm@1500-2500rpm. Mahindra XUV300 is available in both Manual
Q. Compare Skoda Rapid with xuv500w7
  • Selecting between Skoda Rapid and Mahindra XUV500 would depend on certain factors such as your budget, preference of the segment, drive quality, features required, usage of the car, maintenance costs, etc. The Rapid would be a good option if you are looking for a compact sedan for everyday usability and occasional road trips. Driving dynamics as well as a lot of everyday practical features and yes, that 1-litre engine really changes that equation more than the spec sheet would suggest. Both in terms of everyday driveability as well as being exciting when the road opens up, while still staying efficient. On the other hand, if you are looking for a muscular and powerful SUV with an extra row of seats, feature-rich cabin, and good road presence then you may go with the XUV500. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test drive for a better understanding of performance and comfort. Click on the link and select your desired city for dealership.
