Mahindra XUV700 User's Review 4.0
"My XUV700 is the perfect car for me and my family. It is spacious, luxurious and my kids love the panoramic sunroof. I have all the essential features that I need for a comfortable drive."
"All things considered the XUV700 has all the features and performance I would need from a car. However, the fuel mileage is below my expectations and I wish Mahindra had worked on this a little more."
"I absolutely love the performance of my XUV700 and it has become the go-to car for highway trips with the family. Our trips are just effortless and we arrive at our destinations without feeling tired."
"The XUV700 delivers on many fronts but doesnโt go all the way when it comes to features. There is driver side electric seat adjust but not on the co-passenger side. The ADAS features are a welcome addition."
"The SUV looks large but does not have enough space in the third row and the boot. I have a hard time convincing people to sit in the last row for long journeys."
"The XUV700 is a great family car with excellent comfort and features. The driving experience is smooth, and it's a joy for long road trips. The only downside is the fuel economyโit could be better, especially on city drives."
": The XUV700 has good space, and the comfort is top-notch. However, I feel that Mahindra could have packed in more tech features at this price point. The touchscreen system often lags, and I expected more advanced features."
" I love the performance and driving dynamics of the XUV700. Itโs quick, smooth, and powerful. However, the suspension could be improved, as I noticed some thuds over small bumps, which detracts from the otherwise smooth ride."
