Force Motors

Absolute monster! For the people thinking it has a very weak engine, you are totally wrong's pickup is fantastic top speed goes up to 140kmph obviously it's an off-road SUV what would you expect but I'm satisfied and can go anywhere without hesitation Yeah interior and features are old fashioned but who cares only kids need fancy features TBH it's a better option than Thar and it's road presence is too good just looks like a Mercedes G wagon but one problem is that it eats too much fuel but I'm fine with that too don't buy a car if you can't feed it fuel honest review 9.5/10

mahindra is best

Very nice comfortable, good looking, smooth driving, good mileage. It attracts people giving the best responses. It is very good car. Very powerful and excellent.

Class in your budget. MG Hector MT turbo 1.5l review

The vehicle is sturdy and the in city refinement is just unbelievable. Space and seats are very comfortable. The back seats become total flat and makes it boot space double for easy movement of luggage also. I am getting mileage of 10.9 to 12 within city in bumper to bumper traffic. Don't expect xuv700 kind of driving experience in high way but with 250nm torque it does pack quit a punch. Loving it.
