Best SUV Options After Kodiaq

Established in 2024, JSW Motors is the automotive division of the JSW Group. While JSW Motors is a new homegrown Indian brand, it has tied up with Chinese carmakers like Chery to sell their models under its own branding. The first JSW Motors model will be a plug-in hybrid SUV based on the Jetour T2, which will be followed by two more SUVs based on the Chery iCar V23 and Jaecoo J5.

I own a 2018 Hyundai Creta 1.6 diesel manual and have been very happy with it. It suits my family of three for city use as well as long road trips, including journeys from Kashmir to Kerala and Jaisalmer. However, I now want to upgrade to something bigger. I don't like the looks of the Toyota Innova HyCross, Mahindra XUV 7XO or Tata Safari. I also have reservations about ladder-frame SUVs I test-drove the Mahindra Scorpio N briefly in traffic and found it moved around more over bad roads than my monocoque Creta. I want something imposing, like the Toyota Fortuner, but am unsure about moving to a ladder-frame SUV. Should I wait for the JSW Combat, which will have monocoque construction, or would that be a risk in terms of reliability? Please advise.
I drive Kodiaq L&K (2020 model, diesel). I want to sell it and buy another SUV that may not be a 7-seater. My budget is approximately the same. What are my best options? My annual running is approximately 18,000km.
Jetour T2 / JSW Combat I don't think so the pricing is right.. 35 Lakh plus feels too high for Indian Market.. what's your opinion?
