Can adults travel in the XL6’s third row on long trips?

I have done a 500km trip with adults in all rows. It's not luxurious, but you can do it if you take breaks.

It's more of an emergency option, the third row. I fold it as I usually do for extra cargo space.

If you just adjust the second row it's actually not bad. They also make it easier to get in and out of the captain seats.

Well, I think it’s size dependent. I’m 5’8” and I can pull it off, but my taller friends complain.

No third row in this segment is great for adult people. But, like every other car, the XL6 is not terrible.

I tend to use it quite often for family trips. As long as you rotate seating positions throughout the journey, there is nothing wrong with it.
Is the NEXA XL5 a wise decision for Maruti or desperation to remain relevant?
31 December 2024 09:25
I think it's a smart move. Maruti leveraging a proven platform to enter a new segment without having to bear huge R&D costs. It's a low risk way to dip your toe into the waters of more premium offerings.

No, it seems desperate to me. It's an old model they're slapping some chrome and leather on and calling premium. But let's face it, Maruti needs to innovate, not rehash.

It's probably a bit of both. They’re smart in the short term to boost profits, but they can’t depend on this tactic for the long term. And they have to prove they can build truly new and exciting models as well.

I see it as a stepping stone. The XL5 is being used by Maruti to build up their premium credentials before putting out more ambitious NEXA models. It's a long-term play.

But let’s not forget, Maruti knows the Indian market better than anyone. If there's demand for a premium Wagon R, they're probably right to think so. It is about delivering what the customers want.

I fear it might hamper the NEXA brand a bit. NEXA is supposed to be about aspirational, premium cars. The XL5 is a bit too close to their regular lineup. It could confuse customers.

It’s a smart financial move, but perhaps not for their image. They are being safe when they should be pushing the boundaries especially with EVs on the horizon.

It's such an efficient way of doing things. With spinning off multiple models from one platform, Maruti is maximizing return on their investments. Even if it's not the most exciting approach, it's good business sense.
Is the Maruti NEXA XL5 simply a fancier Wagon R or an actual upgraded model?
31 December 2024 09:25
For sure it’s not just a fancy Wagon R. Front fascia, LED lighting, and interior are completely different on the XL5. It also comes with some NEXA exclusive features which you won't get in the regular Wagon R. Think of it as a base model iPhone versus a Pro version, same core but a lot of meaningful upgrades.
Is the Maruti NEXA XL5 simply a fancier Wagon R or an actual upgraded model?

It’s a Wagon R in a tuxedo, let’s be real. Underneath, it's the same car, though sure it's got some nice touches. It's just Maruti trying to squeeze more money out of a proven platform. If you want something real, you should look at something like the Baleno.
Is the Maruti NEXA XL5 simply a fancier Wagon R or an actual upgraded model?
31 December 2024 09:25
I would say it’s somewhere in between. The XL5 does have a few real improvements, particularly in the comfort and features department. However, is that enough to warrant the price premium? That's debatable. Ultimately, it comes down to how much you value those NEXA touches, and if you’re willing to pay for them.
Is the Maruti NEXA XL5 simply a fancier Wagon R or an actual upgraded model?

I’ve driven both and can say that the XL5 feels measurably more refined. It’s quieter, rides better and feels more premium. It’s not night and day, but it’s enough that it feels like a step up from the Wagon R.
Is the Maruti NEXA XL5 simply a fancier Wagon R or an actual upgraded model?
31 December 2024 09:25
We’re missing the point here, I think. It's not meant to be a massive upgrade - the XL5 is for people who love the practicality of the Wagon R, but want something a bit more special. It’s like comparing regular to premium gas – they’ll both get you there, but maybe one will offer a smoother ride.
Will NEXA XL5’s premium features eat into sales of other Maruti models?
31 December 2024 09:25
I don't think it'll cannibalize much sales. The XL5 is aimed at a certain niche - people who like the Wagon R practicality with a touch of premium. It’s not competing with larger Maruti models which offer more space and power.
