Most Helpful Review

Very nice tour's with family

The perfect car for family or friends journey . Totally freedom for seating area and space . Very happy my daughter and relatives journey in this car. The very nice memories and lots of fun in journey.

Maruti Suzuki XL6

My sister bought this car and it is a hassle-free experience at the Maruthi Suzuki Nexa showroom. Great experience. Driven almost 800+kms. But there is some lag in the sudden pickup. So one should be much more careful when overtaking a vehicle, especially on NH. Looks wise it is good when comparing its competitors. Performance is also good. My sister did two services without any trouble. One may consider XL6 for a greater ride and will be suited for 6 persons. Seating arrangements are much better than its competitors. The fuel economy is average. There is some lag in power delivery. This means sudden pick-up is average only. Maruthi Suzuki must consider this issue and try to sort it out.

Thar Review

1. My Buying experience is shameless. 2. One of the best Riding Experiences I ever had. 3. Look of That Is good that everyone knows. 4. Service is Good. 5. Pros: Trending, Have Respect, Comfortable, 4*4 Wheeler. Cons: Overhyped, Mileage is not good, Manual on the price we can expect semi-automatic.
