I have been using my car for the past 12 years, and it has run 53,000 km. I want to purchase a 7-seater within a budget of Rs 25 lakh, with fuel economy and safety being priorities.

The Mahindra XUV7XO and the Tata Safari would fit within your budget and meet your requirements for safety. However, when it comes to fuel economy, being large SUVs, both would be fairly thirsty - the Mahindra more so, thus we would recommend you look to the diesel options in both cases.

Between the two, the Tata Safari would have the better third row while the XUV would deliver a smoother and peppier drive experience.

Hello Anup, i suggest you to.go for non Indian brand like Toyota, Hyundai, Suzuki, and honda for reliability and tension free spare and service experience. Never go for Mahindra and Tata, only your good luck can save you otherwise you repent on your decision.

Not far are the days these two indian brands are going to rule the global auto market through tehnology and sheer marketing strategies. I own a hexa for 7 years, tata curvv ev from its launch and nano atomatic also. I am very much happy with these nice cars.

I am currently planning to buy a new car in the ₹17-19 lakh range. My priorities are safety, decent performance, and good mileage. I am considering the Mahindra XUV 3XO AX diesel and the Kia Seltos HTK variant. I do not have a fixed running pattern since I am a doctor, so my daily driving can range anywhere from 10 to 100 km per day. I was also thinking about waiting for MG Motor to launch a plug-in hybrid. Considering my usage pattern and priorities, what would be the best option for me?

Considering your priorities, the Kia Seltos in diesel guise would be the better choice. It is compact for the city but also has good space on the inside. The quality of the interior is very good, and the 1.5-litre diesel engine is tried and tested. It has a good amount of punch and response, and should you opt for the manual version, the clutch is light and convenient in traffic. The Seltos also has a better after-sales and service network, and Kia's are known to be quite reliable too. The Mahindra XUV7XO is also a good choice, but if you don't need an extra row of seats, it is a bit more cumbersome than the Seltos. Also, within your budget, you will only get the entry-level version of the 7XO, whereas the Seltos on HTK trim gets a decent equipment list.

I have a Fortuner, Thar and Harrier in my garage. Now I want to add a vehicle like an SUV under ₹30 lakh. Which SUV should I buy?

You can consider the Mahindra XUV 7XO, which is a very comfortable, luxurious and feature-packed SUV under Rs 30 lakh. Performance is strong, transmissions are smooth, and ride quality feels plush, too.

Hello Team, I'm currently driving a Figo 1.5 Diesel, which I've driven 1.50L km since I purchased it in 2016. I'm planning on a bigger SUV, and as a diesel fan, I'm left with few options. I'm confused between the XUV7XO and the Jeep Compass (both automatic). Undoubtedly, the XUV700 beats the Compass in many aspects. I'm attracted to the Compass for its unique road presence and its reputation as a driver's car. However, I'm concerned about its poor mileage and service cost, as heard in some reviews. I need your detailed guidance.

Between the Mahindra XUV 7XO and the Jeep Compass, the XUV 7XO makes more sense overall. It is a larger SUV with a more spacious cabin and will feel like a proper upgrade from your Figo in terms of comfort and practicality. If effortless performance is important to you, the XUV 7XO is the easier choice. Despite its size, the diesel engine delivers strong and relaxed performance, and it is also more refined than the diesel engine in the Compass.It is worth noting that neither of these SUVs is particularly impressive in terms of fuel efficiency, but the XUV 7XO still offers a good balance of performance and usability for long-distance driving.The Jeep Compass has its own charm and feels premium inside and out. It is also known for its driving manners. However, considering its higher purchase price, it will naturally be more expensive to run and maintain as well, which is something you need to keep in mind.
