With this price, it’s hard to criticise Indian and Chinese cars. Great value for your money. I prefer Japanese cars but I’m glad we have cheaper alternatives.
i owned a chery i wasn't to much of a fan tbh a huge down grade from what i had before hand. but i got the xuv700 ax7 and i love it so much its on par with what i had before the chery maybe alittle better
I never liked Japanese cars, even before Chinese EV is a thing. its like you are buying 60s tecnology in 2000s, cheaper reliable but never feels good. and I always prefer European or USA style handling, Japanese handling is not necassarily bad, but it always feels bad. and the NVH is usually a disaster. now we have Chinese cars, fancy and practical at the same time, and they are cheap.
Most people have that preference because Japanese was the only option till now for normal reliable cars. We have used Mahindra and Tata cars for decades and they're just as good if not better plus they're affordable
Ye partly because it gives them a different perspective cuz we always thought foreign cars are better vfm. But now indian ones like tata safari and Mahindra xuv 700 are eating Japanese cars alive on reliability(from sales point shift in india) and you already know india has one of the harshest diverse conditions.

What will be the point of reviewing a car that Australians can't buy? I mean they can still review it for sake of reviewing a great car, but being Australian reviewers their prime focus would be to review cars available in their domestic market right. Let's hope mahindra is able to bring in rox to australia✌️
Nope its not the best.. The best tyre brand in India is Bridgestone yes it is.. Also Michelin.. No other brand is close to them plus they are not very expensive
I have got 2 of these in a span of an year now and they're outstanding. The 2024 - not a black edition one is a bit better (can't put my finger on what has changed) but it just feels better. Had it been for Thar, they have shot the sales through the roof - I can take bets on that ! Hopefully with Stellantis folding up, Mahindra gets the green signal to launch the Thar
MRF - Madras Rubber Factory, been around for a looking time. Pretty high-quality tires. Stateside, the only Mahindra's we get is the Roxor and tractors. I hope they get here because I feel it will sell very well. Are these selling well in Australia ?
Well, the Thar Roxx isn't there in Australia [yet]. If Carsauce is watching this comment section, I do have the Thar Roxx available for sale [from India]. You do have to import to Australia, but we might be able to assist on that. If interested Matt or Jacob, you can get in touch with us for further details. I might be able to help you in reviewing one provided you want to come to India.
What's the point in reviewing in India if they can't buy it in Australia anytime soon. Just for fun purposes like they drove the normal Thar back in Chennai plant? 🤔. Also isn't importing this car can get one in trouble coz of the Jeep lawsuit or can anyone bypass that by buying it here n importing it to Australia, that seems too much trouble isn't it. People shouldn't import this car coz too much money will be wasted for processes rather than the actual car, that seems a poor financial situation.
Wait for Mahindra Born Electric, BE Series. They are some of the most futuristic looking cars in an affordable price. Mahindra BE05 is going to launch in india soon. One of the best looking car ive ever seen 🔥
Would anyone be able to believe that a guy from India did a world trip by road on this car where he never had any maintenance or anything on this car throughout
I never heard of xuv petrol tuned as I think they use old Porsche ECUs said by a Indian journalist they are hard to crack. diesels are a different thing they have piggy back ECUs for those and they have a good upgrade from it. I think the petrol could be tuned might be a bit difficult as it's not been done before or not that I know of
India has 50% tax added to selling price of the car. We feel jealous about people driving amazing cars in other countries, for the same price we are paying here. :(
@@vinayaksethu5160 no just look at their availability in australia its not too much as compared to india you dont say these words to toyota aur ford brccause you are jealour with indian companies .
MRF are for commercial applications, hard and last long but not the best for comfort oriented SUVs, best swap to something else, although if you want tires to last long for less money, they are the best
I would choose XUV700 for the following reasons 1. Chery Tiggo 8 Pro Max requires 95RON fuel and is less efficient. XUV700 runs on 91RON. 2. Chery's active safety systems is very intrusive and not calibrated well. 3. XUV700 has an australian ride and handling tune and rides better than Chery. 4. 3rd row access on the XUV700 is on the curb side unlike the Chery. Also it is one touch fold and tumble. 5. XUV700 Aisin torque converter auto is better tuned than the Chery's DCT 6. XUV700 gets physical AC controls unlike most chinese and some euro cars these days.
Trust me mahindra is very reliable i live in usa we don't have them here back in india only 3 companies i can trust on mahindra , bajaj and royal enfield . They made vehicle to last long .
Mahindra is dong fantastic job for half the price of tesla model y long range AWD, soon Mahindra BE 05 EV etc series launching half the price of tesla model y AWD. That is what is i am looking at. Hell with tesla rest are catching up as an EV enthusiast. Its decade late still .
It's tested on GNCAP and it got 5 stars, ANCAP has a different testing protocol but this car is definitely engineered and built well structurally and also has active safety features.
So Mahindra is following the leader TATA MOTORS (not the leader in terms of sales) when it comes BLACK EDITION OR IN GENERAL ANY ADDITION, Tata motors started the trend of black edition and they called it dark edition and honestly Tata does it better than Mahindra but Tata suffers with a lot of small issues as well Mahindra comparatively is a better brand because they only sell SUV and literally they don't have any car in other segment.
Drive both of them and see the practicality and then choose. Do check things like how easy or difficult it is to get in and out of the car. No car reviewer tells you that. Especially if you are buying small cars. I have a Hyundai Venue and getting in and out of the car is a challenge. Especially for the Indian women who wear sarees. Maruti Suzuki Brezza, Tata Nexon are much more practical vehicles than Hyundai Venue. That's why I ask you to check the practicality.
In India XUV 700 ax7 L dark edition comes in white interiors but how the hell are the interiors black there as there is no black interiors for dark edition too in India ply reply
If Tata motors can sort their fit and finish issues Australia would love the Harrier and the safari with its legendary engine sourced from Fiat the 2 L multijet turbo which does duties on a lot of cars in India and around the world and that engine can push out 220 HP and 500nm (Tata chose to limit it to 170 HP in India).
Mahindra is really doing good.. Hats off to them.. but I am a Japanese fan boy as they make world's most reliable car which you can trust blindly as they will start even in - 30 degres of temp and also they also own great performance and technological advanced engine like Honda(Mostly all of the red bull f1 cars) and everyone mighty supra 2jz from toyota and even suzuki like swfit sports(Not indian variants)but yeah people will express their concern about safety but you can't get both performance and safety with features as we ask for more features and automations and they need R&D which is costly. Why we can't do it as they are all foreign manufacturers and I don't understand how a foreign manufacturer can have best service quality(suzuki).. Hyundai.. they will come to your home even if you belongs from a rural village which tata and Mahindra can't... But Mahindra is doing hard and they had made really good ICE engines but Tata 😅😅 I don't see that they have any plans to support their customers as they are Literally doing frauds with their customers.. You can find multiple videos about it.. But Mahindra is doing hard even they own pininfarina which way more performance oriented (Like Batista with help of Rimac Nivera) than JLR but yeah Land Rover is different category😅..
Pretty yesterday car, i dont understand why a car without ANCAP rating can be allowed on the Aussie road. Dont tell me about the gcap no one used. Just no worth to save a few bucks for your family safety.
I just bought this & now youtube recommended you. 😂, its a great car though, but you can't put a tag of SUV on that, its just drive like a sedan, Unlike SCORPIO & FORTUNER, its feels more comfortable & controlled character at high speed. I drive diesel & i think Mahindra has on of the best diesel engines in the world.

India is like Russia they have real ordinary roads, so the suspension compromise they build is good.

Great and fun to watch your reviews! Can this Petrol engine be tuned for more power? Any clue when the diesel would be available
I wish they had the diesel upon the initial release with the AWD.
Thanks! You could, but I would wager it’s already got a pretty high boost to the turbo already

XUV700 vs Tiggo 8 Pro Max, what would you choose?
I would choose XUV700 for the following reasons
1. Chery Tiggo 8 Pro Max requires 95RON fuel and is less efficient. XUV700 runs on 91RON.
2. Chery's active safety systems is very intrusive and not calibrated well.
3. XUV700 has an australian ride and handling tune and rides better than Chery.
4. 3rd row access on the XUV700 is on the curb side unlike the Chery. Also it is one touch fold and tumble.
5. XUV700 Aisin torque converter auto is better tuned than the Chery's DCT
6. XUV700 gets physical AC controls unlike most chinese and some euro cars these days.
Can you please ask Mahindra what grade of oil to use in xuv 700. Because in India they are not revealing the grade of the oil.Thank you!!
Castrol oil guide says 5W-30 API SP for the gasoline engine. The diesel will be different
@@YZJB Thank you!!
You should try THE TATA NEXON And TATA CURVV also great carss

Great value, but no mention of ANCAP safety or safety at all apart from radar. Or did I miss it..?
No ANCAP rating, they haven’t tested it
It's tested on GNCAP and it got 5 stars, ANCAP has a different testing protocol but this car is definitely engineered and built well structurally and also has active safety features.
the petrol mx5 manual is the fastest xuv700 available with the same 200bhp but aroung 200 kg lighter than the top variant
Its good. Very good will be better with the soon to be apparently released diesel
So is it a 2 wheel drive or an AWD? In India, they sell a variant with AWD too.. but what about here?
Also, any news on Scorpion N update?
Where is the thar roxx review😢
It's not in australia yet
Is it worth spending 10% more than the AX7L
Proud owner of AX7L here in Mumbai India
I hope Mahindra makes left hand drive versions and launches them in Europe too.
What's the safety rating ?
Can you lower the front passenger seat yet. First model was set stupidly high and my head hit the roof.
So Mahindra is following the leader TATA MOTORS (not the leader in terms of sales) when it comes BLACK EDITION OR IN GENERAL ANY ADDITION,
Tata motors started the trend of black edition and they called it dark edition and honestly Tata does it better than Mahindra but Tata suffers with a lot of small issues as well Mahindra comparatively is a better brand because they only sell SUV and literally they don't have any car in other segment.
7 seaters are so weird. You put a baby seat in and a pram and you end up with a 5 seater

Go the Mahindra
Drive both of them and see the practicality and then choose.
Do check things like how easy or difficult it is to get in and out of the car. No car reviewer tells you that. Especially if you are buying small cars.
