An Outstanding Suv but is it worth it....

 

Exterior The Extirior is outstanding with sporty looks and the Cheetah inspired head lamps and door handles.This car leaves behind Tata Safari and Toyota Innova in the looks.Also the "Static bending Projector Headlamps" which bend there bulbs during a turn and the water and darkness sensors in the wipers and headlams respectively add a touch of class to this SUV.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interiors are awesumn with a dark coloured console with touch screen audio player and inbuilt DVD player.This audio system also has an inbuilt GPS navigation system which will never make you loose your path.This system covers about 1.5 milloin kilometers in about 1200 cities.

There are AC vents in all the three rows and a cooled glove box which allows you to keep your drinks cool even in the hottest of the weather. Small things like the looking mirror,bluetooth connectivity parking sensors and mobile charging points in all the 3 rows which are not seen in many cars before make this car one in a few.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The fuel economy is yet to be reveiled by Mahindra but the Engine of this car is said to be spectacular. Giveing about 140 ps power @ 3750rpm. It is the mhawk 5th generation VGT engine which is being used in  Scorpio aswell. The gear box asusual is 6 speed manual and the automatic version is yet to be luanched.

Ride Quality & Handling I had taken a test drive earlier today and got to know that the ride quality of this SUV is superb with wonderful handling. This is because the car is very stable as the ground clearence is quite less and the wheel base is 2700. Although it is a heavy vehcile weighing about 2450 kg and has a turning radius of 5.6 metre it is a good drive.

Final Words I would suggests all readers that the Mahindra XUV 500 is a wonderful buy for the features in it and the extra ordinary price but I would also warn you to watch out for the quality of the interior and  the performence of the engine.

Areas of improvement The areas of improvment in this car, as I said earlier are the quality of interior which include the quality of plastic and rubber being used.

Tyre tronics, Unmatched power, Comfortable seats, Cruse control hill descent Bluetooth connectivityOnly bad thing in this car is the quality of the substance in the interiors.
