For an 8-10 year ownership period and regular 500-1,000km highway journeys, the Mahindra XUV 7XO diesel AWD automatic is the more reassuring choice if service access and spare-parts availability are your biggest concerns. Its 2.2-litre diesel delivers strong low- and mid-range torque, and it has very good ride comfort, refinement and high-speed stability. The revised suspension also deals with rough roads better than before.The Jeep Meridian deserves consideration too. Stellantis’ plan to introduce 12 new or significantly updated Jeep and Citroën models in India by 2030, backed by further investment and greater localisation, is an encouraging sign of its commitment to the market. However, the Meridian is far less common on Indian roads than Mahindra SUVs, so spare parts and independent service expertise are likely to be easier to find for the XUV 7XO in the long run, even if either model is discontinued.

Go for the Mahindra XEV 9S. With 40-50 km a day, 80-90% city driving, and the ability to install a home charger, you are the ideal electric car owner. The XEV 9S is a genuinely well-rounded electric SUV with a strong real-world range, a spacious and comfortable cabin, and a very refined driving experience in the city. Your regular short trips every 15 days are easily manageable with an EV, and the convenience of home charging will make ownership effortless.The XUV 7XO AXT diesel is a very good SUV, but your usage pattern does not justify a diesel. Modern diesel cars are far less problematic than they used to be, but DPF regeneration still requires regular sustained highway runs, and your usage is predominantly city-based. The XEV 9S, on the other hand, will deliver lower running costs, zero tailpipe emissions, and a smoother, quieter driving experience that is perfectly suited to your daily routine.The only caveat is long-distance touring. If your short trips are genuinely long highway runs, you will need to plan charging stops. But for your usage, the XEV 9S is the smarter, more future-proof choice.

Go for the Mahindra XUV 7XO Diesel AT. It is the best fit for your requirements. The XUV 7XO offers a strong 2.0 diesel engine, a comfortable ride, a spacious and well-appointed cabin, and a good balance between performance and practicality. It is also significantly more modern and feature-rich than the Scorpio N, while being far better value than the Fortuner.The Fortuner is a great highway SUV with a proven reliability record, but it is now showing its age, and at Rs 40 lakh-plus it is simply too expensive for what it offers. The Scorpio N is rugged and capable, but it is not as refined or as family-friendly as the XUV 7XO. The XUV 7XO is the most complete package for your needs. On the DPF question: modern diesel cars are generally fine as long as you do regular highway runs. The DPF regenerates naturally at sustained speeds. The issues tend to arise only with predominantly short, low-speed city driving. Your usage pattern is highway-heavy, so you should not have any problems.
