Q. I am comparing XL6 and BR-V (Auto/CRV Model), considering all the practicalities and reviews for a 6 member family (4 adult + 2 Kids), I found BR-V as better option. How much weightage should be considered for lack of infotainment system n BR-V. What is the safety rating of BR-V. Further, since the sale volume of BR-V is less and speculation of its discontinuation are on, can it be considered as good option now.

You have correctly rated BRV as a better choice while comparing it with XL6. I am using BRV ever since it was launched in June 2016 (I have V variant in Diesel, Manual). In my personal opinion, BRV is a very versatile, comfortable, fuel efficient and safe 7-seater when compared to any of Maruti's models be it Ertiga or XL6. Coming to your question, I consider Infotainment system as just an accessory and not a parameter to decide my choice of car. Simply because a vehicle should be good enough to keep the passengers safe in case of an incident rather than not offering the gadgetry, which anyway is present in most of our smartphones. You can always opt for a better after-market product which can replace the stock digipad. On the safety front, Honda BRV is rated 4/5 stars on Global NCAP safety ratings whereas XL6 has not even made an appearance there. This is one of the safest crossover/MUV in the market. If you have any more questions, I'll be glad to answer. Best wishes!

Okay sir brv gets touchscreen infotainment system on the vx model but as your looking for a automatic that is v trim and the good thing the Honda has done is that you can opt for caska touchscreen infotainment straight from the dealership for about 35 thousand on any trim level i have brv v trim and bought the infotainment system for 30 thousand from the showroom along with plenty of accessories Honda offers for the car, and the safety ratings for the ncap is 4 stars.

I have the Alpha automatic XL6 and it looks far more better than the BRV. The inside frills and features are much more appealing to the eye . The externals are also much more modern with LED headlights hence i would recommend the XL6. i suggest walk down or drive down to the nearest Nexa showroom and test ride the XL6, am sure you and your family will love it .
