In the UAE, it’s for around 150,000 AED, which, if you calculate, comes out to this: 150,000*25=3,750,000. It is selling like hotcakes over there, with 6-7 months of waiting. If it comes below 40 lacs, I will 100% buy it. I have seen it in person; it looks so nice. Every material or component has nice quality and touch, which we should expect from a 40L car (Fortuner).
Looks good and rugged style. Performance matter more on india roads.
Price 15 - 20 L the best value for money in India market

Dear Autocar experts, I have tentatively decided to buy the Mahindra XUV 7X0 petrol AX7L AT as my next ride. To be frank, it is out of a lack of choice and options that I have made this decision in my head. In terms of capability, it is a downgrade, as I'm moving on from my beautiful Ford Endeavour 3.2 Titanium AT. Of course, it has a long list of bells and whistles that will be all new (and strange) to me. Being based in Delhi NCR, I am reluctant to go for a diesel again at this time. My driving in the city is quite minimal, say about 15kms max per day on average, but always in the clutches of peak Delhi traffic. I am terrified of BSVI diesel DPF horror stories. I am hoping that the 7X0 will be able to negotiate hills, mountain terrains and roads satisfactorily, as I make these trips quite frequently. I plan to keep this car for the next 4-5 years till India sorts out its fuel preferences and diktats, and fresh options are introduced that combine clean energy and performance along with the infrastructure to support them. Is my thought process sound? If not, please poke as many holes in it as you can.
Your plan seems sound for Delhi-NCR, because petrol dodges the 10-year diesel cap and DPF hassles, and your 15 km daily crawl will not punish petrol the way it would a BS6 diesel. The XUV 7XO petrol AT has strong performance and will certainly keep you satisfied while negotiating hill climbs. Sure, coming from an Endeavour 3.2, this will feel like a step down in terms of road presence and off-road ability. However, despite being a front-wheel drive monocoque, it still exudes an underlying toughness, which gives you ample confidence while dealing with rough terrain. Additionally, the tech and safety are up-to-date, and the three-row flexibility will come in handy, too, although boot space with all three rows in place is low. On the flipside, this petrol-AT is thirsty, so expect single-digit city fuel economy figures.If you aren't in a hurry, consider waiting for the Jetour T2 plug-in hybrid SUV that JSW is expected to launch in the latter half of this year. Sure, it'll be more expensive than the Mahindra, and it might not have the off-road capability of your outgoing Endeavour, but since you aren't fully convinced of the Mahindra, this could be worthy of your consideration.
Hello Autocar India. I am planning to purchase a car under Rs 40 lakh. Right now, I own a Creta diesel manual Knight Edition. I’m considering entering the full-size SUV segment, but there are no major options under Rs 40 lakh. I want a proper SUV with 7 seats, plush interiors that feel worth the money, strong brand value and genuine toughness. I considered the Fortuner, but the on-road price in Chennai is around Rs 44 lakh, and I do not want to go beyond Rs 40 lakh. I want something that is tough, something that could go anywhere it wanted to. I also looked at the Hilux, but it feels too long for Chennai roads. Right now, I have shortlisted the Jeep Meridian Longitude Plus manual. It seems to hit the sweet spot, but I am worried about reliability and resale value. What should I do? Are there any other options? I am open to other segments too, as long as it feels like a proper upgrade from my current car.
You are right that there are very few genuine options in this price band if you want a proper full-size SUV experience, which is why the Jeep Meridian ends up making a lot of sense within your stated budget. The Longitude Plus manual offers a premium enough cabin, strong road presence and a far more sophisticated driving experience than most ladder frame SUVs. But there are a few things to keep in mind. Jeep ownership will mean higher service costs as compared to the Hyundai Creta that you own, resale will not be as strong as Toyota, and while the Meridian is capable on rough roads, it is still a monocoque SUV rather than a true, rugged body-on-frame machine.Which is why, for your exact brief, the Toyota Fortuner is still the best answer. That extra stretch over budget hurts today, but it pays you back over time with excellent resale, stronger service support, lower ownership anxiety and genuine go-anywhere toughness. Coming from a Creta, it will feel like the full-blown SUV upgrade you are actually looking for.If you are open to waiting, the Jetour T2 is worth keeping an eye on as well. It is expected to come in as a plug-in hybrid with potentially AWD, rugged styling and a more premium positioning, which could make it an interesting alternative in this space. The catch, of course, is that it is an all new brand for India, so ownership confidence, service support and resale remain complete unknowns.
Regarding the JSW Jetour T2 PHEV (380 hp variant), when the battery charge level drops to around 20%, how much power and torque does the vehicle deliver in real-world conditions? Please clarify.
There isn’t an official power or torque figure published for the JSW Jetour T2 PHEV (380 hp) at 20% battery, and this model is not officially on sale in India right now, so data here is limited.What you can expect in the real world is this: The headline 380 hp is the combined output when the engine and the electric motor work together with a healthy battery. At around 20% charge, most plug-in hybrids keep a small reserve so the motor can still help with quick starts and short bursts. But the car will not hold peak power for long. In steady driving or repeated hard pulls, output will feel much closer to the engine’s own power, and torque will drop as the motor’s boost is reduced. So, for a ballpark, look up the engine-only power and torque in the brochure - that is roughly what you’ll get once the battery is low, with a brief extra shove from the motor when you press hard.
What is the expected price of the upcoming JSW SUV based on the Jetour T2?
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
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.
JSW Auto will begin selling the Jetour T2 through its own dealerships, not via MG showrooms. The company is aggressively setting up a dedicated dealer network and aims to have it ready in time for the Jetour T2’s launch. It is expected sometime between September and November this year.Also, keep in mind that, although this SUV is known globally as the Jetour T2 and will be JSW Auto’s first product here, it will not be sold under the Jetour name in India. It will carry a different market name and wear a JSW badge when it goes on sale.
