Asked by: Puneet guptaon Dec 3, 2025

I want to buy a new SUV that offers the fuel efficiency and ownership experience of a hybrid like the Hyryder, the safety and road presence of the Scorpio N, and the comfort of a 6-seater automatic petrol like the XUV700. I also want to keep this new car for around 10-12 years. Please suggest a model that can meet most of these requirements.

While there isn't exactly a car that's as efficient as the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, the road presence of a Mahindra Scorpio N, and has the comfort of an XUV700, a vehicle which could come close is the Mahindra XEV 9S.
Being an electric car, running costs will be very low, and comfort and road presence are similar to an XUV700. The Toyota Innova HyCross will be efficient and comfortable, although it won't offer the Scorpio-like road presence that you're looking for.

I already own an 8-year-old Mercedes-Benz GLE diesel and an 11-year-old Alto as a beater car. I have a Rs 30 lakh budget for a new car. I am inclined towards an EV as well as the Innova HyCross. The Sierra was my childhood dream, but the EV variant may take time. My monthly travel is around 2,000 km, out of which 800 km is in the city. I want to retain the Benz for another three years. I may use this car primarily for city use as well as long-distance travel, which can be around a 1,200 km round trip once a month. Kindly suggest a suitable car.

The new Mahindra XEV 9S is a great option for you. Besides the fact that it is modern, feature-packed, and packs in three rows of seating (should you need it), you will enjoy driving it. The electric motor of this Mahindra car is peppy, smooth and very refined, and its ride comfort is excellent, for city and highway, both. 

Alternatively, the Toyota Innova HyCross isn't as exciting as the new-age Mahindra EVs; however, it is a proven product known for its space, comfort and the hybrid's impressive fuel efficiency. It is one of those cars you just can't go wrong with.

Asked by: Avinash Baglaon Dec 1, 2025

Hi Autocar team, I own multiple cars, all diesel and petrol driven, but I now want to buy an electric car. My usage will be approximately 1,500 km per month. I have shortlisted the Mahindra XEV 9e and 9S, but am unable to decide between the two. I am heavily built with a height of 6 feet 1 inch. In your reviews, Nikhil Bhatia mentions that the suspension of the 9S is softer, so I am confused. Kindly help.

Both the Mahindra XEV 9e and XEV 9S are suitable for a big, built person like you. However, the Mahindra XEV 9S is set up softer than the XEV 9e, and there is more vertical movement that you will experience at higher speeds.
It is not to the point of discomfort, but something that you will notice. If you don’t need the third row of seats and are sensitive to ride comfort and body movements, the XEV 9e will be the better pick for you.

Asked by: Prabhakar prabhuon Dec 1, 2025

Is it worth exchanging my Kia Carens for the latest Mahindra XUV700? My Carens has done 30,000 km, is in showroom condition, and has a 2-year extended warranty currently active.

If your Kia Carens is running fine and you don't mind holding onto it for some more time, wait for the Mahindra XUV700 facelift that's expected in the first quarter of 2026. 

It will have a thoroughly updated exterior, interior, as well as an equipment list similar to the Mahindra XEV9S, which could include a three-screen layout.

Asked by: Ganesh Prasad GPon Nov 27, 2025

Hi, my daily commute is about 50 km, with one longer trip of 200–300 km each month. I’m looking to buy a new car (preferably an EV or diesel) with a budget of ₹18–25 lakh and want premium looks and features. Is it worth buying an EV now, or is choosing a diesel still a wise decision? Please advise.

Buying a diesel does have some level of uncertainty given the constant negativity around it, be it from official statements as to its certified life or restrictions on its usage on heavy air pollution days. 

Thus, if you are open to an electric, we would advise you to go ahead with this. Furthermore, your daily running is low, and even your occasional long distances are 300kms which should be manageable with something like the Kia Carens Clavis EV

The Clavis EV also has a nice and premium interior and is very well equipped in typical Kia fashion. The recently launched Mahindra XEV 9S is also a very good option, again with a premium interior and a good equipment list.

Hi sir, I own a 2016 Hyundai Creta 1.6 diesel SX with 1.17 lakh km on the odometer. I am planning to replace it with a budget of up to ₹30 lakh. I drive 60 km on alternate days with a mix of highway and city usage. I want a vehicle with at least the same power and fuel efficiency as my current car. Also, should I consider an EV?

Considering your usage, an electric car makes a lot of sense, and within your budget, you have quite a few current and upcoming options. If you want something that feels familiar but is a proper upgrade in terms of tech, driving, and comfort, you can go for the Hyundai Creta Electric. It is powerful enough, has a good range, is creamy smooth to drive and is a well-rounded product.
If you want something larger with more range and performance, you can consider the Mahindra XEV 9e. It is more spacious, has a larger boot, a bigger battery pack that gives it a longer range, and it offers more tech as well.
If you are willing to wait a bit, the Tata Sierra EV is just around the corner, and a seven-seat version of the 9e named the Mahindra XEV 9S is coming as well.

I want to buy a new premium 5-seater car with a budget of around ₹30 lakh. Mileage is also important to me. My average running is about 1,000 km per month.

There aren't any sedans or for that matter too many other vehicles at the Rs 30 lakh mark today. Your best options would be to look at an SUV like the Tata Safari, or if you are open to an electric car, you could check out the Mahindra XEV 9e or the upcoming Mahindra XEV 9S, which would give you more of that premium feel you want.

Asked by: DEEPANSHU PANCHOon Nov 24, 2025

I am planning to buy an XUV700 in January. My monthly running is 600-700 km, about 70% in the city. I live in Jaipur, Rajasthan, and I’m confused about the fuel choice. Should I opt for petrol or diesel? Please advise - thanks.

Considering your monthly running is under 1000km, and most of your driving is in the city, we suggest going for the petrol version of the Mahindra XUV700. While the diesel will be more efficient, it is over a lakh more expensive than the equivalent petrol variant, and with your limited usage, it will take years to recover that cost. Additionally, since around 70 per cent of your driving is in the city, there is a higher chance of facing DPF clogging issues with a diesel engine.

We would also recommend waiting a bit before making the purchase, as the XUV700 facelift is just around the corner. It is expected to come with updated styling, more features and possibly changes to the suspension.

Given your limited city running, you could also consider the soon-to-launch Mahindra XEV 9S, which is a seven-seater. We expect it to be priced slightly higher than the Mahindra XEV 9E five-seater, and it should carry the same battery size, offering a good range. With home charging, its running costs will be much lower than the petrol or diesel XUV700.

Asked by: Crisson Nov 24, 2025

Hi team, I purchased a Tata Nexon Creative+S (manual) 2023 model in December 2024 due to discounts. I recently drove the AMT variant of the Nexon (top-end) from Ooty to Masinagudi and back, and completely fell in love with the ease of driving it. Now I only want an automatic. I want to upgrade my vehicle and, with the advent of the Sierra, new Seltos, new 7XO, and the petrol Adventure+ Safari, what should I choose? Mostly the city use and highway once a month.

Since you are familiar and happy with your Tata Nexon, it's probably a good idea to stick with Tata Motors and check out the new Tata Sierra, which is launching tomorrow. It is a size and segment up on the Nexon, so it should feel like a considerable upgrade. This Tata car is also expected to come with larger 1.5-litre petrol engines, naturally aspirated and turbocharged, although the 1.5-litre diesel engine is expected to be the same.
The Mahindra XUV700 or XUV 7XO facelift is expected to gain a lot of tech from the XEV 9e and 9s, including a triple-screen infotainment system, but that aside, it should largely be the same.
Similarly, the Tata Safari petrol will gain the same 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine as the Sierra, but should otherwise be the same.
The new Kia Seltos is, for now, an unknown quantity, but it is expected to grow in size, as well as tech, which also likely means a jump in price. Hence, given most of your usage is in the city, we recommend going with the Sierra, as it will be a big enough upgrade without having to get an overly large SUV.

Asked by: Venugopalon Nov 20, 2025

I was planning to buy a Mahindra XUV 9e (EV), but I heard that the XEV 9s will be launched on the 26th of this month. Should I wait for the 9s or go ahead and buy the 9e now?

Yes, Mahindra will launch the new XEV 9S on November 26, and it's worth your while to wait for one. 

To talk about differences, where the XEV 9e sports an SUV-coupe shape, the XEV 9S will have a more conventional SUV look. In fact, the basic stance will be very similar to the petrol//diesel Mahindra XUV700. The other big difference from the 9e will be the inclusion of a third row of seats. 

How much space is there at the back, and how practical the last row is, are things we'll report once it is launched, so stay tuned.

In other respects, such as batteries, motor and equipment, the XEV 9e and XEV 9S will be identical.
