My monthly running is around 500 km with occasional long drives, and overall, it will be approximately 10,000 km per year. My budget is around ₹21-22 lakh, and I am interested in the XUV 7XO and Kia Carens Clavis. I want a tech- and feature-loaded automatic car - should I go for the XUV 7XO Automatic petrol, XUV 7XO Automatic diesel, or Carens Clavis 1.5 turbo petrol automatic, and which variant should I buy?

If you want your car to be feature-loaded, we suggest you wait for the launch of Mahindra 7XO, which is coming on 5th January, and is expected to get an updated exterior and pack new features too. Since you primarily drive in the city, we recommend you go for the petrol engine of the Mahindra XUV 7XO.

Hi, I am buying a new car, but I’m confused between the Tata Safari Adventure X Plus petrol automatic, Mahindra XUV 7XO AX7 petrol automatic, and Tata Safari Accomplished petrol automatic.

Between your choices, the Mahindra XUV 7XO offers better value for your money. In terms of performance, the 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine in the XUV 7XO has a definite edge over the Safari’s 1.5-litre turbo-petrol. In AX7 trim, it is also better equipped than the Adventure X trim of the Safari and is almost on par with the Accomplished trim at a significantly lower price.It also offers superior ride quality. The Safari does have a slightly more comfortable third row, but if this is not a priority for you, then the XUV 7XO is the better choice.

I’m torn between the Tata Harrier and the Mahindra XUV700 (7XO). Looking ahead to 2026, the XUV700 AX7T diesel variant comes at a lower cost compared to the Harrier Fearless X Plus, while covering almost all the same features. However, the Harrier feels more solid and robust to me, which makes the decision tricky.

It's a close one between the Tata Harrier and Mahindra XUV 7XO. Both SUVs have great road presence, strong diesel engines, and come packed with features. However, talking specifically about the Mahindra XUV 7XO AX7 T and Harrier Fearless X Plus, it's the Mahindra that gets our vote.It's significantly more affordable than the Harrier Fearless X Plus yet packs in almost all the features of interest. What also makes the case for the XUV stronger is its more refined diesel engine and the flexibility of its third row of seating. Further, like the Harrier, the XUV 7XO is built tough and feels solid.

Got the creta turbo petrol 1yr back but want a bigger car, is it a good financial decision to sell the creta in 6 months and idk how much I will loose in Chennai but I heard it has good resale value, and planning to buy a bigger car like 7 seater just for driving experience, is this a good decision in overall and financial point of view and what cars can I look after selling? Got the creta for 25L on road.

Purely financially, it isn’t optimal to sell your car so soon, as 12-18-month-old cars take the sharpest depreciation hit. Expect a resale value of approximately Rs 20 lakh for your outgoing car - a financial hit of around 20 percent. If you still wish to satisfy your itch to upgrade to a larger car, consider the Mahindra XUV 7XO. It is thoroughly modern, and it’s a genuine size upgrade over your Hyundai Creta with a punchier engine, and the nicest drive in this class. Of course, it isn't the most spacious 7-seater out there; space in the third row is tight, but for occasional use it does the job.If you plan to use all three rows regularly, you could even opt for the Tata Safari. It is more spacious than the Mahindra, and its road presence is great too.
