Trending Questions on Mahindra Cars - Answered by Autocar Experts
I want to buy a new car with a maximum on-road budget of Rs 15 lakh. My annual running is very low, around 5,000-6,000 km, with about 70 percent of the driving on highways and hills and 30 percent in the city. We are a family of five and enjoy highway trips together. I have been using a Renault Kwid for the past 10 years with about 50,000 km of running, and now want to upgrade. Which car would you recommend?
The Mahindra XUV 3XO turbo-petrol makes a good pick for your needs. The engine is strong, and you'll enjoy the performance on your highway and hill drives. A tough build and absorbent suspension are other highlights of the XUV 3XO. What also makes the 3XO well-suited for you is the cabin space. The rear seat is comfortable for 3 adults and legroom is good too.
Boot space on the XUV 3XO isn't the best, though.
My daily driving is around 20 km in a small city and nearby villages, and my budget is Rs 12-14 lakh. I prefer a car with a powerful engine. Which car would you recommend?
There are a couple of options that you can consider. We've listed the highlights for each.
1) Skoda Kylaq: Punchy engine, fun handling. Rear seat space is tight, though
2) Mahindra XUV 3XO petrol: Strong engine, good ride comfort. Boot space is limited
3) Maruti Suzuki Fronx Turbo/ Toyota Taisor Turbo: Strong engine. Reliability and hassle-free ownership experience
4) Citroen C3: Strong engine. Feels a bit basic, and the service network isn't very large.
I have been using the Mahindra KUV100 mid variant since 2016, and it has now crossed 1.10 lakh km. I am planning to buy a new car with a budget of Rs 10-15 lakh and want an automatic. I am confused between the Mahindra 3XO and the Mahindra 7XO base variant, but I am open to other brands as well. My usage includes occasional city driving and one or two highway trips every month. Which car would be the better choice?
You will need to stretch your Rs 15 lakh budget significantly for the base Mahindra XUV 7XO petrol-automatic. Among the options that fit your budget, the Mahindra XUV 3XO is an excellent pick.
You could either choose the 1.2-litre turbo-petrol MPFI or 1.2-litre turbo-petrol GDI, both of which are mated to a 6-speed torque converter (automatic). The MPFI is powerful enough, smooth and has a better value than the GDI option; this is the one that we'd recommend.
Kindly suggest between Innova Crysta GX Plus new or old automatic Crysta, or diesel Scorpio N Z8 Select auto new, for family travelling and overall keeping for the long term. I am confused. Kindly guide.
I am planning to buy an EV, as I see the cost of a near top-end petrol vehicle is similar to a near top-end EV. I am confused between the Tata Harrier EV and XEV 9S (not because it’s a 7-seater, though). The XEV 9S cabin looks much more premium than the Harrier EV. However, hearing about the suspension in the 9S is a bit of a concern. I would mostly use it in the city. Can you suggest?
Hi Autocar Team, I am planning to buy a new SUV in 2026 within a budget of ₹30-40 lakh. I want a proper off-road capable vehicle that also works well as a family car. Can we expect the Toyota RAV4 to launch in India in 2026? Please advise.
As of now, Toyota has no concrete plans to bring the Toyota RAV4 to India in 2026 or anytime soon. The challenge is cost. The RAV4 would have to be imported or assembled in small numbers, which would push its price well beyond what most buyers in the Rs 30-40 lakh bracket expect. Also, by Indian standards, it’s not a particularly large SUV, and at that price, buyers here tend to want more size and presence.
Sadly, there’s a bit of a vacuum in the Rs 30-40 lakh space, and in this range, your more practical choices are SUVs like the Mahindra XUV7XO and the Tata Harrier. Both are spacious, comfortable for family use, and capable on bad roads.
If you can stretch closer to Rs 50 lakh, options like the Skoda Kodiaq and the upcoming Volkswagen Tayron (a more affordable version below the R-Line is expected) are very strong all-rounders with a more premium feel.
Another SUV worth waiting for is the Kia Sorento, which we understand could arrive around the festive season at roughly Rs 40 lakh. That might come closest to what you’re looking for, a proper global SUV with family practicality and some genuine all-road ability.
Hi, I am planning to buy a Kia Carens Clavis DCT. I currently own a Hyundai Venue Turbo Petrol(O) manual transmission, but I want to know whether the Kia Carens Clavis turbo-petrol DCT will be reliable for long-term ownership (10-15 years). I have heard that turbo DCT gearboxes tend to heatup in heavy traffic. Please guide me, is the turbo DCT suitable for mixed driving conditions (city traffic and highways)? What is your suggestion regarding the Tata Safari / XUV 7XO automatic variant?
My budget is up to ₹18 lakh. I have booked a Tata Nexon Petrol DCA (automatic), but it has been over a month, and the showroom still cannot confirm the delivery date. Because of this delay, we are reconsidering our decision. Should I wait for the Nexon DCA, or switch to the manual petrol variant since it is available? Another option is to cancel the booking and buy a used Mahindra Scorpio N or XUV700 within the same budget. This will be our secondary car. We already own a Hyundai Grand i10 Nios automatic. We live in a semi-urban area (not a metro city). Our usage would be around 60% city driving and 40% highway trips. Kindly suggest what would be the most sensible decision.
Hello, I have booked the Mahindra Thar Roxx Star Edition Diesel, but I am concerned about the way Mahindra is portrayed on social media. Many videos are complaining about service quality, lack of responsiveness, and product issues, which is making me apprehensive. I currently own a Volkswagen Vento, which I have driven for the past 11 years. It has had its own issues with suspension, steering rack, slow service, and expensive spare parts. However, when you love a car, you tend to live with some shortcomings. I understand that no brand is perfect, and I am prepared for a reasonable margin of error in both product and service. However, the sheer number of negative videos about Mahindra is making me uneasy. While some online content may be exaggerated, there must be underlying reasons behind such strong reactions. Could you please provide an informed and balanced perspective on whether these concerns are valid or amplified by social media? Thank you.
Indeed, Mahindra & Mahindra doesn’t have the best reputation for service and reliability like Toyota has. But quite honestly, the Mahindra Thar and Mahindra Thar Roxx are sturdy and fairly reliable vehicles underpinned by proven mechanicals.
There are isolated cases of Thars facing problems and service issues that haven’t been resolved to the owners' satisfaction, and that often forces them to highlight them on social media, making it sound like the norm. Social media tends to amplify negative experiences far more than positive ones. Also, there are influencers in the north of the country actively working to tarnish Mahindra’s reputation.
As you said, if you are prepared for some service issues, you can go right ahead and buy the Thar Roxx.
Hi Autocar Team, I want to buy a good, powerful SUV within ₹25 lakh that has a petrol manual transmission and ADAS Level 2 features. Which category of SUV should I go for?
Considering your requirements, the Mahindra XUV 3XO with the AX7 L spec would be a good choice. It gets a powerful 131hp turbo-petrol engine, a fantastic ride quality and the most up-to-date Level 2 ADAS along with a 6-speed manual gearbox.
The 3XO is a compact SUV but gets a spacious rear seat and a feature-rich cabin with a panoramic sunroof and wireless connectivity. The top-spec version will easily fit in your budget.
