Both these SUVs were launched in 2021. The Safari is in its 2nd generation, and the Mahindra XUV700 was in its first generation when the particular model was discontinued. The Tata Safari delivers a mileage of 9-13 Km\/l, while the Mahindra XUV700 delivers 10-15 Km\/l. Both the SUVs are available in diesel and petrol variants, in manual and automatic transmissions. <br>The petrol variant of the Tata Safari is a recent addition. Safari has introduced the HYPERION 1.5L Turbo GDi petrol engine with its KRYOTEC 2.0L Turbocharged diesel engine. The Mahindra XUV700 has 2.0L TGDi petrol and 2.2L CRDi diesel turbo engines. Its diesel engine performs better than the petrol variants for better mileage, which reflects in its fuel cost as well.

Here, the Tata Safari diesel variants show highway mileage staying close to the ARAI claims. XUV700 petrol variants show a dip in their actual mileage on both city and highways, but its diesel variants show steadier and closer mileage to the ARAI claims. Manual transmission always fares better than automatic transmissions. The diesel powertrains of both these SUVs deliver better mileage, and they are almost identical. However, it is the Mahindra XUV700 diesel manual transmission that emerges the winner with consistent mileage on highways and better mileage on city roads.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Also Read:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/increase-mahindra-xuv700-mileage\/\">How to Increase Mahindra XUV700 Mileage<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tata-safari-vs-mahindra-xuv-700-fuel-cost-comparison\"><strong>Tata Safari vs Mahindra XUV700: Fuel Cost Comparison<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s compare the fuel cost for Tata Safari and Mahindra XUV700. For convenience, we have taken an average distance of 1500 Km per month. The average price of petrol and diesel is used here, which are Rs.111 and Rs. 98, respectively, to calculate the monthly, annual, and 5-year fuel cost for these SUVs The table below provides the expenses for the two powertrains.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th><\/th><th><strong>Tata Safari Petrol<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Mahindra XUV700 Petrol<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Tata Safari (Diesel)&nbsp;<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Mahindra XUV700 Diesel<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Monthly Running<\/td><td>1500 km<\/td><td>1500 km<\/td><td>1500 Km<\/td><td>1500 km<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Monthly Fuel Use<\/td><td>125L<\/td><td>125L<\/td><td>108L<\/td><td>100-105L<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Average Monthly Fuel Cost<\/td><td>\u20b9 13,875<\/td><td>\u20b9 13,875<\/td><td>\u20b9 10,584<\/td><td>\u20b9 9800-10,290<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Average Yearly Fuel Cost<\/td><td>\u20b9 1.66 lakhs<\/td><td>\u20b9 1.66 lakhs<\/td><td>\u20b9 1.27 lakhs<\/td><td>\u20b9 1.17 lakhs- 1.23 lakhs<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>5-Year Fuel Cost<\/td><td>\u20b9 8.32 lakhs<\/td><td>\u20b9 8.32 lakhs<\/td><td>\u20b9 6.35 lakhs<\/td><td>\u20b9 5.88 lakhs- 6.17 lakhs<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The petrol variants of Tata Safari and Mahindra XUV700 have a similar average mileage, and therefore the fuel costs are also similar. At the same time, the diesel variants of XUV700 have a lower fuel cost than the Safari. There is a significant difference of Rs.17,000 to Rs.47,000 in savings. Mahindra XUV700 can save you more, especially if you mostly drive on highways and have consistent speed and throttle for better fuel efficiency.
