Driving Confidence

Iconic design based on land rover platform, a best in class SUV give a very confident road presence to drive. Gear shifting is more refined than before, also it's big sunroof gives you more room and feel more bigger than the actual from interior. Try some road trips with amazing JBL music system.

Mahindra XUV500 W5 Review

The car is overall nice. Can feel the high power of engine performance as the price of car is fabulous, just breaking is an issue and when you go to sell the car or replace it with the new one you will get approx. 2 to 3 lakhs.

More Expert Reviews on Safari and XUV500

2021 Tata Safari Diesel Manual First Drive Review

By Santosh Nair14 days ago

We have to admit that Tata Motors has pulled off a great product with the new Safari. As such, we strongly suggest one opts for the automatic version as all the glitches associated with the manual can be avoided. Sure, the new Tata Safari doesn’t have the off-roading caliber that its predecessor flaunted, but even then, it’s not like the original was beating the Mahindra Thar at all the mud-plugging activities either. So the new Safari stacks up well by offering great comfort and style, a strong motor with decent dynamics, a long list of features, and a thoroughly usable third row. Considering this segment is going to get crowded soon, the company did well to plug it earlier on.
