Mahindra XUV500 [2015-2018] User Reviews

Bought XUV 500 w10 FWD after lot of research in themonth of march 2016. Its suspension was noisy the day i took the dilivery of veh. I switched over to XUV 500 from scorpio, but feel cheated as it is not a SUV its just a car.

Suspension makes noise with small speed breakers or path holes. its not ment for offroading at all. I feel cheated by Mahindra as this is my fourth veh from mahindra stable. the first one was jeep in 1982, then bolero followed by scorpio which i just disposed off. With that kind of association and love for SUV, I upgraded to XUV 500 w10. thinking that by now all initial issues must have been shorted out. if anybody wants to by I am ready sell. its a march 2016 model kilometer done 12000. pearl white color. Moreover my complains have gone unheard. the company is not responding.

looksvery poor suspension.

1. The buying experience has been hassle free. Mahindra has always been top notch in terms of customer service 2. Riding experience has been quite comfortable there is not much lag in terms of a manual car the gear shifts are easy and the only thing it lacks is in terms of power slightly more power could’ve been a better experience in terms of driving 3. The looks is undoubtedly amazing it has an eye catching charm to it the only thing which bothers is less Perfomance, One could have a comfortable drive but not an Enthusiastic drive 4. In terms of Service and Maintenance it is quite decent for the size of the car. The average cost for service would be around 13-15 k per year which is not bad. Parts like clutch pad, sensors, break pads are expensive and needs to be changed after 40k kms or an average of 3 years. 5. Pro- comfortable, space full, average maintenance, durable and aggressive look Con- Hard plastic interior, less Perfomance and expensive parts

XUV500 is an ideal option for car lovers who wants to experience a big SUV without digging too deep in their pockets...Provide ample of interior space for 5 seaters (last row seats are little cramped up)...Interior Plastic quality could have been better and the steering mounted buttons needs an improvement...Mileage is average and fine tuning is required...Overall a good package in this price bracket (as compared to peers)

Worth and value of money, nice experience, feel like bmw and audi, exterior and interior are nice look, performance will be good, maintenance will compulsory the suspensions will be good

Best car for self drive in suv type But suspension jolding little bit high compared to innova crysta Improve headlight brightness and focus Otherwise best SUV and engine performance is very good

Love to travel? XUV 500 is the answer. I have owned the XUV 500 since 2014 & have driven it for more than 50000 kms. After a short test drive I was convinced that the drive was very relaxed & this one was a mile muncher.I purchased the W6 variant in dolphin grey colour & since then X is my companion for trips.I have been to my native land Kutch many times.It has also taken me & my family to Shegaon,silvassa,pune,mumbai,chalisgaon & many other places in a very comfortable manner. No issues to talk of till date.It is super reliable & I have not even suffered a puncture. If I would buy my next vehicle it will be certainly be a XUV. Why one star less? It rattles & squeaks which is taken care by the efficient dealer Bhavin Wheels,Nasik but it does.

Exterior It looks very like a urban suv. beautiful and muscular design. very attractive.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) When you get into the cabin of xuv, you will feel like you are no sitting in suv which is cost overt 20 lacs. Fit and finish is cheap. Plastic quality is just okay, not acceptable for car of price of this. Seat are comfortable, but ride quality is not good compared to other rivals like CRYSTA,HEXA and COMPASS. You can feel bumps on bad roads. But its safe car too.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Performance is awesome. but other rivals offers more power and they performs excellent.

Ride Quality & Handling Handling is good but poor ride quality. you can be tortured on bad road in this SUV.

Final Words It was value for money product,but at present it is not a value for money.  GO FOR INNOVA CRYSTA, TATA HEXA, JEEP COMPASS.

Areas of improvement INTERIORS, CABIN NOISE, SUSPENSION, RIDE QUALITY, FIT AND FINSH, AND BUILD QUALITY.

Steering response, attractive features, performanceInterior's fit and finish, rear AC vents, build quality, cabin noise, third row seat, ride quality

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Noise, NOise.

Ride Quality & Handling is  Poor.

Final Words Dont buy Mahindra.

Areas of improvement Very poor service. The service center especially at Sector 64, Noida does not care about the customers. It will ultimately lead to the downfall of Mahindra. Supervisors are careless, Service manager has no interest. Customer is left high and dry. For the same problem you will need to go a few times. NO respect for the time of customer. Even if one likes the vehicle a little bit, it get diluted by the service they provide. Mahindra automotive shoul find a way to control. Mahindra website also has no option where one can bring a complaint to the company. It seem they dont care as well and the customer is left to the mercy of the dealers. Finally it is Mahindra who will suffer, as they will loose the market share. Mr. Mahindra should know that there are enough options for the customer.

Thanks.

STylingService is awful.

Very humble and good staf ni mahendra. For long root car is very comfortable and look like dragon maintenance is very costly but performance wise maintenance is value for money and very good experience about mahendra motors.
