No Nonsense Car with superb driving,Budget friendly

I am a new driver, I got it in Ranchi, It was a new showroom opened, and they gave it in a week. I have driven 2800 km and haven't faced any challenges till now. Paint quality is a concern to me. Accessories are less in the outside market. Mileage I got nearly 16 on the highway. I use it mostly for long routes. Apart from this, I will say, that if you are looking for a new car then you can go for it, If you are budget is tight. The engine is superb, I love to drive. In low gear, it'll struggle. Breaks are good but still need a little more refinement.

Pros and cons in plains and mountain foothills of XUV 3XO

I haven't purchased this car, but it is owned by my maternal uncle who is living in Himachal Pradesh Kangra district and works in Punjab Hoshiarpur, and he comes home every Saturday and leaves on Monday I am also working with the car overall comfort is better than many sedans in the segment the engine is powerful for some hilly areas but clutch feels a little hard in cities. A middle variant will be best and value for money. I trust Mahindra and we are somewhat driven around 4500 km+ and service experience is also good with Mahindra in Himachal Pradesh the servicing charge is nominal and justified according to our uses. in our hometown, it gives a decent mileage of 15-16 km/l, and on highways sometimes it reaches 21 km/l with cruising in 4th or 5th gear at 80km/hr. the car design is very good no problems with ground clearance, The headlight throw is very good because there are no road lights on our way to our hometown in Himachal. boot space is enough for a family of 4 but a bit small and a maximum of 5 adults and 2 minors can sit in it. overall having this is a good experience I would rate it a solid 4/5 stars some demerits are the stability because it is an SUV and suspension is not likely for Bumpy roads because there is some construction going around in our districts because of the 4-lane road project. sometimes takes time to start in the cold season and the main problem is that steering feedback is not that good even an alto is better than this car in terms of feedback
