Rexton RX7 True Feedback

Before I proceed I would like to mention that I read almost all reviews & watched all videos of Rexton of all generations across worldwide websites and not just on indian websites. Offcourse my first choice was Fortuner but thanks to its long waiting period that gave me the chance to drive Rexton inbetween and changed my decision forever. Also I took testdrive 4 times of both vehicles before concluding RX7 as my SUV. Also the Price was never a factor for me to chose Rexton above Fortuner but it does play improtant part if we start comparing the features of both SUVs

Look and Style   There is no doubt that RX7 is one of the best looking SUVs available as of today. If you compare it with Fortuner, Captiva or SantaFe I may only consider Fortuner as the only competitor however I chose RX7 coz in my city (Gurgaon, Haryana) every second SUV is Fortuner and I am really sick of its looks, secondly Rexton may not look aggresive like Fortuner but its bigger than fortuner & more subtle lines & chrome unlike flashy chromes of fortuner, thats the only reason RX7 gets all head turns towards it by all Audi,BMW & Fortuner owners offcourse. LED Lines on headlamp & Tail Lamp make it look extremely stylish at night. I got myself Black color which indeed suits this SUV really well. The INTERIORS are loaded with features, its better if you go to the rexton website and go through them and I will mention the remaining features at the end of this review. My wife travels alot in Innova as her company's transport facility and when we went for the test drive of Fortuner she could barely make any difference on interiors (No offense to Fortuner owners) and She always wanted me to buy Audi Q3 just because of the Looks & Interiors however My Idea to buy RX7 was to have a really SUV with good space.

Comfort  It can surely beat any SUV in comfort factor as it has excellent suspension though sometimes you feel they are really soft however I tried this SUV on Jimcorbett jungle drives and it supported really well and trust I didnt have to do much to control it as AWD and excellent suspension did excellent job. Alll Leather seats are extremely comfortable better than any SUV I have driven so far including BMW X1 which was terrible on a road trip. Yes If we talk about Braking it is very powerful however the soft suspension pushes little infront that makes you feel that brakes are not effective but in reality the brakes are excellent and you actually start enjoying that push once you get use to this SUV.

Pickup  The only question that kept till the end in my mind after every test drive was the pick up better from its competitors or shoudl I consider 8 seconds time for the total pickup time as it was an AT Diesel. The pick up isnt great for 1-2 seconds however it picks up really well in next couple of seconds. However if you are in hurry Than switching to MANUAL Mode takes care of that. This is one feature that can really fun if you wanna zip zap on Indian roads. You can switch gears like Playstation on your steering and have fun while beating others. Its not highlighted by company on their website but it does bring alot of fun to this SUV

Mileage I wont talk much about Mileage as the first service is due on completing 10000KMs which is kind of dropback in their service manual. So far i am getting 7-8 in City and 10-11 on highways and in high

Best Features  Countless however Mine Favs are Big Sunroof, Memorized Auto Seats ( Not just memorizes it when turn off the car it auto lands backwards to let you get out & in thats simply amazing) Manual Gear Mode, Super Advanced Cruise Control that can be set on incline/decline mode, you can speed up without touching your pedal..dont need to set the speed again even when you stop completely just cross 40 press the Cruizecontrol and it takes you back to the top speed you set..Highfi audio system..Freaking Automatic control for every setting you can think off..

Once again there is no comparison when it comes to features with Fortuner or any other SUV..

Having said all this .. This review is Seriously for Automatic Buyers..if you are looking for Manual drive SUV look for some other review..You cant beat fortuner manual with Rexton Manual.. So if you want an AT AWD like AN AUDI or BMW..with all features.. go for Rexton RX7..

Needs to improve  Car keys..Old model keys..Should have been a foldable key or  I should say keyless start stop would have been there..but not a big trouble as such

Overall Experience So far amazing..Once I cross 10K Kms would again review..
