USER OPINION

Latest Updates
Wednesday, 13 November 2024 11:34 AM Mahindra is rumored to be bringing back the XUV500 with a new design to compete in the C-SUV segment, as the company currently lacks a product in this category. This move is expected to rival models like the Hyundai Creta. I think this could be a smart move by Mahindra to regain market share.
Sunday, 21 August 2016 09:20 AM The 2016 Mahindra XUV500 AWD AT model received praise for its smooth handling and comfortable ride. The vehicle featured an 8-way adjustable driver seat, cruise control, and auto headlamps, among other features. The interior design and ergonomics were also highlighted as positives. I think the combination of these features made it a compelling choice for buyers.
Friday, 12 February 2016 12:27 AM Mahindra introduced a six-speed Aisin automatic transmission for the XUV500 in 2016, which was a significant upgrade, especially for urban drivers. This transmission helped reduce turbo lag and improved power delivery. I believe this was a crucial update for enhancing the driving experience.
Friday, 12 February 2016 12:15 AM The 2016 XUV500 also saw improvements in interior design, including a shroud over the centre fascia, an interactive reversing camera display, and LED interior dome lights. These changes enhanced the overall interior quality and functionality. I think these updates were well-received by consumers.
Friday, 12 February 2016 05:14 PM One of the notable features of the 2016 XUV500 was its seating capacity, comfortably accommodating seven adults, although this came at the cost of limited luggage space when all seats were in use. The third-row seats were accessible but best suited for children due to limited legroom. I believe this trade-off was manageable for many families.
Friday, 12 February 2016 04:53 AM The exterior design of the 2016 XUV500 included unique door handles that pulled out horizontally, which was praised for its ergonomic design. Additionally, the vehicle featured a sunroof and ample headroom in the second row. I think these design elements added to the vehicles appeal.
Friday, 12 February 2016 11:18 AM The safety features of the 2016 XUV500 included side curtain airbags, although these did not protect occupants in the third-row seats. The vehicle had a four-star safety rating from ANCAP. I believe this was an area where Mahindra could have improved further.
Friday, 12 February 2016 10:44 AM The 2016 Mahindra XUV500 W8 model was priced around Rs. 15 lakhs (approximately), making it a relatively good value proposition for buyers. The vehicle came with a 2.0-litre turbo-diesel engine and a six-speed automatic transmission. I think the pricing was competitive given the features and performance.
Friday, 12 February 2016 10:54 AM The 2016 XUV500 had some minor issues with plastic trim pieces and panel gaps, particularly around the glovebox and steering column. However, the vehicle did not exhibit any rattling noises during drives. I believe these were minor flaws in an otherwise solid build.
Wednesday, 10 February 2016 12:31 AM In 2016, Mahindra updated the base variant of the XUV500 with new features, enhancing the value proposition of the vehicle. This update included various amenities to make the base model more appealing to buyers. I believe these additions made the XUV500 more competitive in the market.

Well Designed Machine by Mahindra

Mahindra XUV500 is my companion from last two years and I never faced any issues with it yet. It is just made for a smooth and comfortable ride. It allows me to go over potholes without braking hard. Even it crosses speed breakers by lowering the speed to 30 without much fuss. All I want to say here is, XUV500 is meant for the bad roads of India. The interior space is a mixed bag; it depends on where you are seated as 1st and 2nd row have more legroom than the 3rd row. The space it provides is enough for 7 passengers but the third row is not meant for tall person. I have done many long tours on my XUV and never felt tired after such a long hectic drives because of its ease of drive and comfort. Riding it at 100+ speed is different fun one can have. There are lots of storage spaces in XUV. In the terms of mileage, I am getting anywhere from 11-12 kmpl in city roads and on highways I get 16-17 kmpl. The only problem I have faced yet is lack of boot space with 7 passenger.

Best Features: Appearance and Comfort

Pros: Spacious Cabin, Style, Comfort, Facilities

Cons: Lack of Boot Space (without spliting seats)

The Mahindra XUV500 is an attractive package, providing value to buyers with its powerful engine and long equipment list. It's design is a mixed bag, but I like the overall design. The tail lamp is powerful and looks different at night, even from a distance. There are lots of storage spaces in this SUV and specifically above the centre console which I like the most. Because it is easy to keep parking tickets. Mahindra has done an extremely good job, as far as handling is concerned. There is minimal body roll, even at high speeds. It has great pickup and suspension is also equally good. It has got seating capacity of seven people and is very spacious and comfortable from inside. The six speed manual transmission is little bit notchy and the gears don't reassuringly slot in place, which spoils the whole driving experience a bit. Despite its amazing power output and high kerb weight, it returned a respectable fuel efficiency figure of 12.5 km/l.

Best Features: Powerful Engine

Pros: Decent handling, spacious interiors, powerful engine, aggressive styling

Cons: Notchy gear shifts
