    Mahindra XUV700 vs Toyota Innova Hycross

    We are confused between the Mahindra XUV700 and the Toyota Innova Hycross. We are looking at the top-end variants of both. It will occasionally be used on our farm, which has bad roads.

    Atharva Ubale, Pune

    Autocar India says: The XUV700 is better suited for bad roads thanks to its beefy suspension and high ground clearance, but the Innova Hycross is a smoother drive. So, if the roads are really bad, the XUV700 would make more sense; it has a stronger engine, too. The Innova Hycross is more comfortable and spacious, and it is a better product overall. So, if you can manage to traverse that bad patch to your farm in the Innova, it is the better choice.
