Can the TUV300’s rear wheel drive setup get the better of front wheel drive competitors?

For a car in this segment the RWD setup is overkill. It complicates and can lead to maintenance problems further down the line. But Mahindra should have continued to use FWD for better efficiency.

It makes the TUV300 a unique selling proposition, I feel. In a market where everything feels the same, being RWD is different. Those looking for more authentic SUV might be attracted by it.

Mahindra’s a smart move. The RWD setup is better for modularity – they will be able to use the same platform for pickups and other utility vehicles. It's thinking ahead.

The RWD setup may be an advantage for Indian road conditions, especially in rural areas. It rides the rough roads better when loaded and has better traction on loose surfaces. It’s a practical choice for people in its target market.
Is the TUV300 worthy of being the new Bolero?
27 December 2024 11:43
No way, man. That’s why the Bolero is a legend. It’s simple, rugged and easy to fix. Instead, the TUV300 tries to be too fancy and loses that raw appeal that the Bolero enjoyed.
Is the TUV300 worthy of being the new Bolero?
27 December 2024 11:43
I believe it’s a good evolution. While the Bolero is tough as nails, the TUV300 keeps the spirit intact, but with modern safety features and comfort. That's what the Bolero would be if you designed it today.

They are going after different markets. While the Bolero is still the king in rural areas, the TUV300 is for semi urban buyers looking for a robust vehicle without being too basic. This is not about succession, it is about expanding the lineup.
Is the TUV300 worthy of being the new Bolero?
27 December 2024 11:43
The TUV300 misses the point. The Bolero was a success because it was simple and reliable. The TUV300 tries to modernize a bit too much and loses that core appeal. It is trying to please everyone and not pleasing anyone.
Is the TUV300 worthy of being the new Bolero?
27 December 2024 11:43
I would call it a spiritual successor but not a direct one. It's the essence of what made the Bolero great – toughness and practicality – but packaged for a new generation. It's a natural evolution.
Is the TUV300 worthy of being the new Bolero?
27 December 2024 11:43
The TUV300 is its own thing. It’s unfair to both cars to compare it to the Bolero. The TUV300 is trying to carve out its own legacy, and the Bolero has its own. Give it time.
Is the TUV300 worthy of being the new Bolero?
27 December 2024 11:43
Being a Bolero owner, I was never excited about the TUV300. I can see the appeal, though, after driving it. It's tough, and more comfortable, and more feature packed. For Bolero owners who want to upgrade, it’s a good option.
Is the Thar Roxx’s wheel hop issue making it unsafe for daily driving?
27 December 2024 11:38
It is not unsafe, just a suspension characteristic. You won't find this in normal driving.

27 December 2024 11:38
I think it's a serious issue. But what if you need to reverse quickly in an emergency?
Is the Thar Roxx’s wheel hop issue making it unsafe for daily driving?
27 December 2024 11:38
This is something Mahindra needs to sort. While it may not be unsafe, it is certainly worrying for a 25 lakh vehicle.
Is the Thar Roxx’s wheel hop issue making it unsafe for daily driving?
27 December 2024 11:38
People are overreacting. Many 4x4s do this and it’s not a safety issue if you drive sensibly.
Is the Thar Roxx’s wheel hop issue making it unsafe for daily driving?
27 December 2024 11:38
That's a design flaw that Mahindra should correct. It’s not unsafe, but it’s annoying and shouldn’t happen in a modern vehicle.
Is the Thar Roxx actually a practical family daily driver?
27 December 2024 11:38
Absolutely! It’s great for family use with the 5 door setup and added features, and still fun.

27 December 2024 11:38
It’s still too rugged for comfortable daily use, but it’s getting close. However, it doesn’t ride as well as other similarly priced SUVs.
Is the Thar Roxx actually a practical family daily driver?
27 December 2024 11:38
If you’re okay with compromises, it can work as a family car. It's not as refined as other ones we've seen, but it is unique.
Is the Thar Roxx actually a practical family daily driver?
27 December 2024 11:38
It wouldn't be a good car to take as a primary family car. It’s a bit of a weekend toy that can do some family duties.
