Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which car is better XUV 700 or Tata safari or MG Hector Plus?
  • Choosing the right vehicle depends highly on one's preferences. All Three cars are good in their own forte. If we talk about seating comfort, families will appreciate the second row in Mahindra XUV 700 as the wide cabin and flat floor make it welcoming for three. Getting to the third row is easy in XUV too, due to the one-touch tumble function, there is a generous amount of foot room under the second row. But the under-thigh support is lacking. On the other hand, in MG Hector Plus, given the amount of width, knee room and headroom on offer, adults can be accommodated here easily, but like its rival XUV 700, the lack of under-thigh support in Hector Plus would make longer journeys tiresome. Additionally, access to the third row isn’t very convenient either. However, Tata Safari is a well-balanced 7-seater SUV with a great balance of design, comfort, performance, safety and practicality. Whereas, the XUV700 comes across as a very sensible, usable and family-friendly machine that packs potent engines and incredible segment-first safety technology. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test drive for a better understanding of performance and comfort. Click on the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
Q. Which is better, XUV700 or Scorpio Classic?
  • No
  • Both cars are good in their own forte. Mahindra XUV700 has an impressive road presence, the Cabin feels premium, the space is impressive, the ride is comfortable, the feature list is long and impressive and finally both the petrol and diesel engine options along with their transmissions are very capable. On the other hand, The Scorpio Classic, being an affordable alternative to the Scorpio N, slots below the latter in Mahindra’s SUV range. Mahindra has made a handful of changes to the Scorpio Classic compared to the previous iteration of the SUV. These include a revised front fascia with Mahindra’s new ‘Twin Peaks’ logo, vertical chrome slats, and LED DRLs in the fog lamp housings. 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.
Q. I have 30 lakhs budget for my car. Should I buy old fortuner 2019 or go with xuv700 ?
  • Both the cars are good in their forte. The Fortuner is capable, more powerful, can look both rugged or city slicker and promises to be more comfortable on the inside. It's that big jump up in price that is going to be a hard pill to swallow. On the other hand, the XUV700 comes across as a very sensible, usable and family-friendly machine that packs potent engines and incredible segment-first safety technology. It has sharp design elements, comfortable ride quality, clean dashboard layout, powerful drivetrain options, AWD
