Most Helpful Review

This car is indirectly promoting Innova hycross

Not going to sell at this price point, very wrong approach to the Indian Market. Indeed this makes customers feel more value for money now. People would pay 25+L and upgrade to Velfire Or Merc Vclass This is going the Jimny way down

The Beast X7

The staff at BMW was really very welcoming drive quality is fantastic the engine makes you feel the punch looks are fantastic as its rood presence is mind-blowing i have not serviced it yet PROS:- it has a lot of space in it, speakers are good, etc CONS:- bench seat option should be available
