Renault Lodgy vs Toyota Innova - Comparative Review 

True

GamerPDS

Xylo was there for quite a long time & it still not able to beat Innova even with features, performance, pricing? Innova is still the car to beat. That's why they compared it with Lodgy!

The Innova lacks a 6th gear I agree. We have a 2008 model Innova whose engine at 100kmph reaches 2800rpm with just 2 people sitting in the car. I think I need to put a K&N air filter lol

My Innova z varient gives 13.7 km for a liter

dinesh suri I have a friend who bought 1 year ago a Lodgy and he is very happy with it, and we compared the Air Conditioner (i have Renault Megane) and it is about the same (not the design, under the design). My Megane is 7 years old and i never had problems with AC.

dear dacccad, you are from which country? i compared it with scala renault i may be wrong because distance covered under test ride is not too much. i will take a ride a again.

I am from the country where Dacia is from, i am from Romania.

dacccad hi friend these renault cans will never have problem

hi tomal tej 85 bhp scala/sunny and duster/terrenno has problem in effective air conditioner and in climbing mountains in full load

you should go for lodgy it is much much better than those

ecosport

no can beat it ecosport the best

New 2016 innova price more than 20 lakhs so no comparison bro.

Jaspreet Singh I like your comment ❤️

what body roll are you talking about ?

First see that Romanian roads then ask about body roll of renault lodgy.

Mahesh Sharma Can you tell me something about Lodgy's performance off road? Are you thinking of buying this car?

Pratik Deo Hi, I did not buy this car but my friend has it. He took it on an off road trip recently. And he did not complain. He was really happy with how the lodgy works. He was accompanied by his family of 5 and he had a good run.

how is ac chilness

how much mileage diesel im planting to buy 2016 model

marketing, strategy, in india, some people buy from the shop keeper, who talks little, maintain a time, and his timing, (in hindi bhav). people nicely go and buy it from him, its a village strategy.. all people who buy innova are fools , simply brand name, nothing, no features, 5 lakh rupess car best features..

Sea Parrot but you have underestimated renault 1000's of logan taxis still running on the streets of mumbai.whenever i drive a renault car driver chap comes and enquire about the car .thats the reach of renault.maintenance free cars.you must know a thing when it comes to diesel engines no one can go near Europeans

Vijay Vignesh You are right friend, renault cars have no maintenance problem. I own a duster myself and I test drove lodgy a few days ago. It seems to be a winner all in all. Toyota has dominated the MPV market for long and ertiga also created some buzz but I think power wise, space wise and presence wise, lodgy could establish a good customer base.

I had just cover the very long driver from Delhi-Rishikesh-Baderinath- till the Last India Village " Mana" on Indo China Boader.. between 17th to 22th June2015. with Duster. ..not an issue , No body Roll , power is good with A/C on, shifting gear is not smooth as Innova or any Toyota Car , but many time I have seen that Toyota Innova is over-taking me on Hills during uphill climb.. and within few Second maintain a huge Gap between us.. Innova has more power than Duster on Paper as well as on ground.. I have seen few Lodgy on Road & did test driver .. but let me tell you that its better than Maruti Ertiga.. I own Ertiga for three month its good City car for 6+1 , but for people for Outstation and long driver.. Driver comfort is their but just because of " FRONT WHEEL DRIVER" its drifting on hills road sply when road is wet & u need to Climb the hill from 1st gear .. I covered a Long Trip from Delhi to Dushausie in last year June , i faced a problem within the Dalhousie Main " Subhas Chowk" Now that car is with one of my friends & he faced issue in gear box after 40,000km. which i have seen in many ertiga.. Maruti Gives Gurantee upto 40,000km .. may be they know this issue.. But its true that " Lodgy" will definitely gives batter option Than Hondaz 6+1 & Ertiga6+1.. Lets wait share if u found any new info in this regards with Regards

Sea Parrot Ohh I see, is ertiga that problematic on wet roads? I was impressed with lodgy's specs on paper and after the test drive I was convinced about its engine and handling. I also own a duster and though I have not taken it on high altitudes, I hope it gets me a good drive if I do. Thanks for a detailed review and information.

Your Xylo was there for quite a long time & it still not able to beat Innova even with features, performance, pricing? So its utter waste to compare Renault with your body rolling car in every corner!

Vipin Nath Xylo H9 matches up to Innova on features. It's 35% cheaper, and has the most powerful engine among all MPVs, including this Dodgy (Mahindra mHAWK with 120 PS / 280 Nm). Unless you Tokyo-drift with your mommy's MPV, it's a perfectly valid to want Xylo in an MPV comparison. It's because of mentality like yours that we've not been able to support local brands. "phoren eej a bettur" has been hardcoded onto your brains, and your titanic inferiority complex drives you to the nearest foreign car dealership. Each Toyota/Renault purchase causes the Indian economy to bleed money. We have nothing to give Japan or France in exchange for an MPV, so we give precious rare-earth metals that would be invaluable if we ever become an advanced economy. Not with moronic consumerism.

btarunr You need to see the reality of what every car manufacturers doing. This is not about the French, Japan or India. Whoever does the best job, you really need to accept it Agreed. Xylo was cheaper. But why they lifted it high & its not stable on corners. No MPV's is gonna win Tokyo drifting award. Ok! They are here to carry more people comfortably. Why not Mahindra focus on their mistakes and do better job than Toyota & Renault? If someone is doing a better job, it doesn't mean that you need to moan about it. You get you head and do better job than them. This is how it should be done. Please get knowing about this basic things and speak!

btarunr I would rather drive a over-priced , over-rated car like the Innova than drive a MPV which makes me feel like I'm falling of a cliff at every corner at fucking 80 Km/h . So , Thank you for your suggestion but you can keep your Boat and that clumsy ass gearbox .

rasyid arifin based on what is innova better than the lodgy? only 5 gears, same old design, heavy steering?

Thanx i was going to buy innova to update my honda city, but as your views i will my mobilio!

Just remember to take the test drive of both the vehicles before deciding on buying any car.

Mandeep Baweja Dont even think of Mobilio its to films, cheap and built to cost, just go to a Honda showroom and see yourself, how the seats are screwed togethe how thin they are, and every thing is so small to accomodate. I took the TD of the Lodgy and believe me its awesome, take TD of Lodgy and Mobilio and decide yourself. Innova makes no sence its too over priced, and not fast enough and still returns worst in terms of mileage and haling compare to Lodgy. And Lodgy 1.5 is also well proven Engine and as reliable as Innova.

No resale value of lodgy, i hate Renault, i'll either go for Vento or ertiga or ciaz, i will decide that i want sedan or SUV! Thanx

Lol I agree with you

***** unfortunately what you call junk are bought widely in the indian market. In india people are more obsessed with European models of cars which are specially worked upon to strike the indian audience. Look at innova, it is one of the most well sold MPV in India and other companies like Honda (Mobilio), Renault (Lodgy) and Maruti Suzuki (Ertiga) are trying to have a market share. Nobody can stop buying cars which are actually made to suit the pockets of Indians and they dont mind compromising here and there and it is the harsh truth.
