Xuv700 is fantastic to drive and transition from driving a hatchback or sedan to an suv is almost seamless . The major dissapointment is the waiting period and the frequent price hikes. Anyway fantastic video from Autocar . One question though is the mileage on Xuv700 really bad and also there are lot of videos about bad breaking performance and frequent break pad wearouts , maybe autocar can throw some light on such issues.
In simple words: Xuv: The guy who loves to appear powerful Classic: The sidekick to the powerful guy N: The guy who is strong but keeps quiet until required.
Jay Patil is the star of the future. Great screen presence and dashing personality. One day in the future he'll surely be the editor in chief at Autocar.
It's simple if you need a 4wheel drive vehicle that can do some serious offroad trials and comfortable onroad too, then scorpio N is the one. If you dont need 4wheel drive and you drive mostly on tarmac xuv is the one to go for. Without 4wheel drive there is no need to go for scorpio.
For me ultimately it comes to one thing the COMFORT / RIDE QUALITY. So XUV is the obvious choice. And I would suggest anyone to judge a vehicle on this as the ultimate buying decision factor cuz u need your family to have a good, comfortable, jerk-free ride, specially on Indian roads.
Just imagine if the 2nd row had sliding seats then the 3rd row could be much more usable than this. Mahindra always launches cars skipping some main features. Here they also skipped automatic irvm. They will add all these after 1year. So initial customers are fooled. Ventilated seats also will be given in the next update.
Should've made XUV 7OO, RWD... Behemoth 450Nms being channeled only to the Front Axle is waste RWD+ 210HP and 500Nms from the 2.2L mHawk Diesel would've been lit af
Yeah without panoramic sunroof it's not a complete 4×4 right ? Lol Obsessed with sunroof . And ADAS in Scorpio n makes no sense especially if we consider the price of the Scorpio n.
Scorpio N's interior doesn't feel like it's a 30 Lksh SUV..They should have gone for a more contemporary interior like the one they have in the XUV 700
So the conclusion is: XUV700:- If you want something sophisticated and premium and more comfortable car like experience. ScorpioN:- If you want a go anywhere, butch and bully like presence with some serious off road capability. Nissan Armada:- If all you want is the big daddy of SUVs.
This is where Autocar is at its best. I completely feel that ADAS is mostly useless in Indian driving conditions and Autocar has the guts to put it out. I agree some features like collision warning may be handy at times, but companies can do away with higher level ADAS offerings and instead offer these products with lower prices for their own benefit and the customers' as well.
😂😂😂😂 calling a pseudo /quasi suv a big daddy 😂😂😂 Let me check : Rear Wheel Drive : NO 😂 BODY ON FRAME : NO 😂 Proper 4*4 : NO 😂 at least AWD 😢: NO 😂 Its a SUV : HELL NO 😂😂😂😂
Proud owner of XUV 700 AX7 Non luxury Petrol AT... I can tell you one thing for sure... No matter how good road presence Scorpio N has, and how rough and rugged the Scorpio N is, XUV 700 is leaps ahead in ride, handling, performance and refinement... Space is slightly better in XUV... Tech is also next level in XUV 700 😍😍😍 M&M has really created a good profile for customers 👍 only If Mahindra could work on waiting periods, both can be hot deals 🔥
All this was coz u are the owner of XUV700 and therefore biased ! This is not at all rational and true 😅 I am in the market for a new one and checked out both of them thoroughly, To my utter surprise i found Xuv700 strangely looks MPVish in front of more muscular Scorpio N when parked side by side , driven both , and the difference is not too much , the only inherited difference is that of a monocoque and BOF , so no brownie points here , difference is not exceptional, space again is 19-20 difference, and as per features are concerned than again not much that i long for , specially if u are buying a Mahindra get a car with less electronics 😅 (have driven xuv500 for 10 years) learned this lesson in last decade myself! The upright stance and the majestic driving position that Scorpio N offers , its out of this world and no monocoque can match it, moreover if u want a proper off roader vehicle scorpio n is way superior to 700!
@@manishpandey5573 Yes, and that's what XUV is oriented towards... family... I bought it for that reason only when compared to Scorpio N... I neither wish to off road so much... Even I owned Xylo since last 10 years, and wanted a premium vehicle instead of a rough feel...
Both are very good products, take what you get soon. Mahindra has created it's own Segment. Pure Enthusiastic People's who don't want Korean brands always go for Mahindra Nowadays.❤️
XUV700 is superb but still misses out on Ventilated Seats and sliding midrow which we can have in Safari which is less expensive. There should be a variant without ADAS but loaded with everything including Ventilated Seats and sliding midrow.
Xuv700 is way better value than ScorpioN. Even in the base variants, the XUV MX gets all needed features, but the ScorpioN gets no infotainment and black trim.
😂😂😂 even the Z2 (base variant) comes with the same infotainment system as Z8L, i guess its the only car which gives the top model infotainment system in base model too, plus no black trim , even the base model comes with coffee and black color scheme same as top model, the only difference is base model wont have soft touch , jago grahak jago 😅😂
What i have personally observed is that the 7 seater SUVs the 3rd row is an after thought. The luggage space is absolutely non existent. The 3rd row isn't comfortable even for short trips. In that case the 7 seater is out of the window. Either build a proper 7 seater SUV with a proper 3rd row and a decent luggage space or stick to the 5 seater SUV.....
U need a taxi bro 😂 buy a MUV 😅 SUV’s are not people mover! Just because they got size its good to have optional seats for that one week in a year! You want a proper 7 seater , close your eyes and buy Innova ! You are cross shopping in wrong segment 😂
Did you choose XUV AX7 or AX7L for review. 360 Camera of AX7L is good. By the way i have AX7L AWD. For the initial prices, XUV is more value for money.
