BMW X1 vs Mahindra XUV700

Founded in March 1916 by Karl Rapp and Gustav Otto, BMW (Bayerische Motoren Werke) is one of the most prominent German automakers in the world. The luxury auto brand established its first Indian production facility in Chengalpet, Tamil Nadu, in 2007. This manufacturing facility makes popular BMW cars that include the 3 Series, 5 Series and 7 Series, alongside SUV models such as the X3, X5 and X7.

I drive a Skoda Superb but I want to upgrade with only 2 options in my mind including ES 350h and BMW LWB 5 series. Help me make a decision.
I just sold my SUV and am looking to upgrade, I am an enthusiastic driver and go for on-road trips a lot. I have a family of 4 adults and a 5 month old kid. I am looking for a 4-seater SUV with great driving experience with a car seat for my kid. Also, I need space for a full size stroller and at least for 2 suitcases. As I will drive and explore through this car, reliability is important and easy access to get things fixed if at all is important. My budget is between 2 and 3 crore. Many have suggested LC 300. Do you have any other suggestions?
Hello guys, I’m a 30 year old working professional and am looking to buy an EV mainly for city commute and occasional highway driving (20%). I appreciate build and ride quality, refinement and reliability. The EVs that I’m mainly looking at are the Ioniq 5, Kia EV6, BYD Sealion 7 and BMW iX1. Which do you think will be the right fit for my use case? I’m actually leaning towards the Korean cars and am not willing to spend for the iX1 just for its badge value. Thank you for the answer in advance. You guys are a great source of reliable and measured Automative content in this country. Really appreciate it!

The BMW i7 is my dream car. I plan to buy it when I turn 30 and drive it fast, not slowly, while taking pictures of it. It's truly my dream.

The car is good, but the safety features could be better. I believe the design is great; unlike other brands, BMW never fails to impress in both exterior and interior.

The BMW X7 is an all-rounder and more reliable than both the Mercedes GLS and Porsche Cayenne. I think BMW X7 is a better choice.

Loved everything about the car except for the lack of ventilated seats, window shades and the Run flat tyres.

This vehicle is really good, living up to the BMW name. It offers extreme comfort and stable riding, with top-class pickup power. After a ride, I'm planning to buy one soon. I'd give it a solid nine overall.

When I bought the car, I recognized its worth. The driving experience is unmatched; it handles smoothly and features top-notch technology. The look and aerodynamics are the best in my opinion, better than any other car. Servicing is done on time, and it even reminds us when needed. It's great for both city and rural driving, super comfortable for travel, and offers excellent road presence. Being a branded car, it has more features in this price range. A must-buy!

Driving my favorite BMW was a smooth experience. Good comfort and space, relaxing seating, and a luxurious feel made for a memorable, hassle-free trip around Pune and Lokhandwala. Even on curvy roads, the drive was easy and enjoyable.
View all iX1 LWB ReviewsEmerging in 1917, BMW's highly recognisable white and blue logo signifies the colours of the Bavarian state, where the brand has its origins. It has also been reinterpreted as a rotating propeller, since BMW used to produce aircraft engines during World War 1.
BMW is a founding member of the vast BMW Group. This group owns another luxury car brand, Mini, along with the ultra-luxury car brand, Rolls-Royce. The BMW Group also owns its own two-wheeler division under the BMW Motorrad nameplate. On the other hand, Mercedes-Benz does not have any such equivalent two-wheeler brand, but it does operate its own ultra-luxury arm under the Mercedes-Maybach brand.
BMW cars have historically been for those who prioritise taut handling over outright comfort. Some of BMW's noteworthy models that have cemented their place among driving enthusiasts include cars from the brand's M division, such as the M3 and M5. Some of the reasons that made these sports sedans so good to drive was their rear-wheel drive (RWD) system, near-perfect 50:50 weight distribution, tactile steering and eager powertrains.
