Mahindra\u2019s XUV 3XO and Hyundai Venue are two well-known compact SUVs, each with its own features. The XUV has a spacious cabin, powerful engines and high torque, while the Venue is available in many engines and is compact in size. Both the SUVs have petrol as well as diesel engines, while the XUV\u2019s petrol engine is turbocharged, whereas the Venue has normally aspirated engines in addition to the turbo option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Their diesel gearbox choices also differ. The XUV 3XO offers a manual or an AMT, while the current Venue gets a manual and a torque-converter automatic. Claimed figures place several variants close together, but real-world tests reveal larger differences, particularly in traffic. Here is how they compare on specifications, mileage and fuel costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The following table compares the main specifications of the Mahindra XUV 3XO and Hyundai Venue<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n In terms of performance, XUV 3XO has proven to be better, as its TCMPFi petrol engine produces 111 PS and 200 Nm, which is more than Venue\u2019s 83 PS and 114.7 Nm from its 1.2-litre petrol engine. Furthermore, XUV\u2019s 3XO is said to be faster than the Venue turbo, since XUV\u2019s engine gives 130 PS and 230 Nm, while Venue\u2019s has 120 PS and 172 Nm. The Mahindra diesel engine is said to generate 300 Nm of torque, whereas the Venue gives only 250 Nm, which makes it responsive, though frequent engine boosting leads to higher running costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Venue counters with lighter-duty engines and more gearbox types. Its 1.2-litre petrol suits calm city driving, while the turbo gets a manual or DCT. The 3XO<\/a> is wider and has an 80 mm longer wheelbase, contributing to its roomy cabin. The Venue\u2019s 45-litre fuel tank, against the 3XO\u2019s 42 litres, can provide a useful range advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n Specification<\/strong><\/td> Mahindra XUV 3XO<\/strong><\/td> Hyundai Venue<\/strong><\/td><\/tr> Petrol engines<\/td> 1.2-litre TCMPFi turbo petrol1.2-litre TGDi turbo petrol<\/td> 1.2-litre MPi petrol1.0-litre Turbo GDi petrol<\/td><\/tr> Diesel engine<\/td> 1.5-litre CRDe diesel<\/td> 1.5-litre CRDi diesel<\/td><\/tr> Displacement<\/td> Petrol: 1,197 cc Diesel: 1,497 cc<\/td> Petrol: 998 cc\/1,197 ccDiesel: 1,493 cc<\/td><\/tr> Petrol power<\/td> TCMPFi: 111 PS TGDi: 130 PS<\/td> MPi: 83 PS Turbo GDi: 120 PS<\/td><\/tr> Petrol torque<\/td> TCMPFi: 200 Nm TGDi: 230 Nm<\/td> MPi: 114.7 Nm Turbo GDi: 172 Nm<\/td><\/tr> Diesel power<\/td> 117 PS<\/td> 116 PS<\/td><\/tr> Diesel torque<\/td> 300 Nm<\/td> 250 Nm<\/td><\/tr> Petrol transmission<\/td> 6-speed MT\/6-speed torque-converter AT<\/td> 5-speed MT for MPi6-speed MT\/7-speed DCT for turbo petrol<\/td><\/tr> Diesel transmission<\/td> 6-speed MT6-speed AutoSHIFT+ AMT<\/td> 6-speed MT\/6-speed torque-converter AT<\/td><\/tr> Drive layout<\/td> Front-wheel drive<\/td> Front-wheel drive<\/td><\/tr> Length<\/td> 3,990 mm<\/td> 3,995 mm<\/td><\/tr> Width<\/td> 1,821 mm<\/td> 1,800 mm<\/td><\/tr> Wheelbase<\/td> 2,600 mm<\/td> 2,520 mm<\/td><\/tr> Fuel tank capacity<\/td> 42 litres<\/td> 45 litres<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
