Hi, I would like to know whether JSW will sell the Jetour T2 through existing MG dealerships, or will they wait to launch it after setting up a dedicated dealer network. I am keen to buy it early and am willing to wait for the launch.

The Chery-based Jetour T2 will be the first product from JSW Auto, and it is expected sometime before the festive season this year. JSW is planning to launch the Jetour T2 with a fairly high spec, so it won't be cheap and is expected to cost around Rs 38-40 lakh. For that money, you get a 380hp plug-in hybrid variant with around 610 Nm of torque. It is larger than both the Mahindra XUV 7XO and the Tata Harrier/Safari in most dimensions and boasts a 580-litre boot. So if you are looking at the Jetour T2, you need to put aside a budget of Rs. 40 lakh

The MG Windsor EV’s ride is indeed on the firmer side, and that’s something we’ve pointed out in our review as well. On broken roads and sharp bumps, it doesn’t feel very plush, but at higher speeds, it settles down and is quite stable. The air-conditioning isn’t the strongest in the class, yet in normal use, it does the job and is not a major weakness.Given the price, space and long list of features the Windsor offers, there’s very little that matches it for sheer value, so these compromises are something most buyers can live with.However, if you don’t really need that much space and mostly drive yourself, the Maruti Suzuki e Vitara is worth considering. It has a more comfortable ride, better overall refinement and an efficient air-con system, which will matter on long highway runs and in hot weather.

Go for the Toyota Innova Hycross Hybrid ZX(O) 7-seater costing up to Rs. 50 lakh on road, it suits a family best for comfort, space and easy driving. For moderate use, the petrol-hybrid is the sweet spot: it pairs a petrol engine with an electric motor to help in traffic. So it always feels smooth like an automatic and keeps fuel use in check without any charging. The second row is wide and very comfortable, the ride is calm on most roads, and the driving position is easy for all heights. Toyota’s service reach is strong across India, and resale is usually high, which matters in long-term family ownership.One thing to be aware of: with all three rows in use, the boot is small, so plan for that. Also, top trims with larger wheels can feel a bit firm on sharp bumps, so check this on a test drive.If you want more power and lots of features for less money, look at the Mahindra XUV 7XO diesel automatic 7-seater. It is quick, safe and gets driver-assist features that help on highways, but the third row is tighter, and the city ride can feel busier. If you often carry seven adults and drive on rough roads, the MG Gloster 7-seater is big, comfy and feels tough. With a calm highway gait, just note that it is very difficult to park and MG’s service network is smaller than Toyota’s.Overall, the Innova Hycross Hybrid is the most family-friendly and hassle-free pick; during the test drive, load all three rows and drive over broken patches to be sure the comfort works for your family.
