2021 Mahindra XUV700 review - it aims to wipe out the competition | OVERDRIVE

[@saravanakumards13]

The best and honest review until now, None of the youtubers highlighted the things which has been spotted here. kudos

[@adish2776]

Can we take a moment to appreciate how good Rohit have done this review. !!! 😎

[@sajith35]

Great Rohit

[@rohit_paradkar]

Thank you so much 😊🙏🏼 really appreciate it

[@themessaih9591]

Ok

[@darkPassenger24]

Always

[@gaurav4749]

One of the best

[@vikraminfive]

This has been the only review which has detailed every bit of the car very well. All others have over-hyped it, this one has been very well balanced. Appreciate it.

[@paulmorais476]

👌

[@rohit_paradkar]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@kafremandar]

Summarized well... Especially emergency breaking feature and perfect example of having pregnant lady on board example. Nice review

[@docobee]

i initially watched Autocar India's review... and that felt somehow Renuka was more into selling the product rather than truly evaluating it for its worth pros and cons both.. but Rohit's Overdrive review has just bowled me over... so much depth stats infos like the door handle issue with vallet parking or the details regarding the suspension!!! 🙏🙏 In the end what he does makes me more convinced to switch my Thar booking to AX7 fully loaded AWD top version... Can't wait for it 😍😍🤩🤩

[@rohit_paradkar]

Thank you, Oishrya 🙏🏼 I’m glad you liked our review.

[@pacificsword1632]

That’s all the autocar reviews unless you look for the bike reviews where the review team sometimes does real reviews thanks to Rishabh.

[@mathysics]

Did you get the XUV 700 AWD then? How's performance? I have also booked Thar and thinking to switch to AWD version of xuv700. Was it good decision or any regret after it? Or any alternative for this car?

[@jeetdeshmukh]

One of the best or possibly the best review I have seen of any car. All aspects covered, compared and spoken of clearly. Simply brilliant

[@gaurav12345pareek]

This car makes Compass, crysta, harrier look way overpriced. Imagine this car's base model is almost near the cost of top end venue. Damn that's amazing pricing.This goes to show how much we are over paying currently in the name of SUVs

[@bijoypillai8696]

Just compare the higher specs and then say .. XUV Diesel higher trim will cost 23 LAKH on road..

[@themessaih9591]

@@bijoypillai8696 Still cheaper

[@mohnishghodekar4074]

Hyundai creta is overpriced. Harrier jeep atleast give good engines..

[@deepee159]

Same with alcazar

[@mithulk713]

It's surely a multi segment killer

[@Appu219]

Aha. Getting philosophical with the butterfly logo, are we? 😄 Brilliant in-depth review as always!

[@naadacademy2162]

Your reviews are one of the most detailed and objective that I have come across on the platform. The wat you dash up your reviews with technical details reminds me of the way our mothers used to put “tadka” in the dal. Accentuating the flavour and also retaining the originality of the dish! Bravo!

[@AK-qj9id]

A no nonsense review like always from Overdrive. I Definitely don't have to search more. Thank you.

[@ashwinkumart8642]

In first 5 mins you gave more relevant info on height and door handle ignored by many other reviewers. Great job.

[@apsgill12]

Most detailed review, the first I've seen talking about composite plastic tailgate.

[@harshdhiman2690]

Lovely review, like always. I like to check everytime an embargo is lifted and I always find OD to be most impartial. Mostly the other reviewers act as marketing agencies to OEMs. Thanks for all your critics and inputs OD team.

[@SameerDhere]

Wow! I never thought I would watch a 36 min car review and still wish it lasted longer. All other reviews of this car just mention features, pricing and add to the hype. This goes beyond all the hype and shows practical aspects and even some negatives. Kudos to Rohit for being so patient and thorough. Thank you!

[@Misfiring4G]

This is the best review i have seen for xuv700, other eviewer never went to this much detail...kudos!

[@zuneguym]

Certainly one of the most detailed, honest and well articulated reviews by Overdrive on XUV 700. From the initial feel of the vehicle [digital exp only] it looks premium in the new vibrant colors. The engine options, coupled with the power and torque values are at par with a segment higher. The long list of safety and comfort features will add to the waiting list that you spoke about - considering this is India and we all love to go gaga over these features, making a sense of occasion. Yes, competition should be be shock with this kind of aggressive pricing of the Xuv700 - a very startling realization both for the respective companies and for us, the consumer too - we had been paying so much more, for so much less!! Jeep Compass - Puny SUV [if i may say so] with unrefined cabin and a sense of space which is marginally more than the Eco Sport. Highly overpriced, fleecing consumers by making them believe, that they own something special. A very ordinary compact SUV and extracting millions - not worth the money Safari - well priced and proportioned in terms of size and features. Certainly looks like a stunner, all around! Hector Plus - Doesn't deserve to be here in the list - unknow brand, ghastly shape. Looks like an OLD Man / Lady from the rear. Nothing stand out about this vehicle. You can easily delete it from the consideration list. At least i have. Alcazar - Not to be compared in the same frame of reference. The vehicle is more like that sleek lady in red, ready to go for the party. Unlike the XUV 700 whish is more like the stout man ready to dress up like the Jockey at the horse race turf. Innova Chrysta - Same segment but for a different purpose. This one is more for the Chaffuer driven. While i think the XUV 700 is offers more for he driver, to exp that adrenaline rush provided by 200+ horses from the Petrol Engine. This value proposition from M&M is certainly a winner. A great job done [ as it looks to be] by the company to bring it to the Indian Market

[@rohit_paradkar]

Nice perspective and interesting analogies 😁

[@brendandbrass1161]

Better review than Autocar, they had all praise for it and didn't mention the cons. You guys definitely did a fair review. Great going

[@paulmorais476]

True! The Autocar "review" seemed like an ad, compared to this one

[@troybolton1674]

No KZbinr has reviewed Mahindra XUV700 as Rohit has done it! Appreciate the work that you put into this video.

[@sritamd5082]

I have come across 10+ reviews, all those reviews are quite vague. This one is right on point with explaining each feature in detailed manner. Override you need more subscribers to justify your quality, as you are one of oldest group in India on vehicle review sector. carry on your good work .

[@rohit_paradkar]

Thank you 🙏🏼 Yes we need more subscribers and we want organic growth. Pls help by sharing the video as much as you can, it would really help.

[@ponrajkrishnan7107]

Very well laid out review. Neatly covered all the aspects and concerns of a normal prospective buyer would look for.. kudos to the team.!

[@ivanborah4355]

Can we take a moment to appreciate Mahindra. 🔥 A dope car at unbeatable price 🔥🔥🔥

[@sunrise9228]

Even with a gradual price hike after a few months which will happen for sure, this is still solid value. Performance is brilliant and it is a complete package. Mahindra has hit the jackpot

[@parteeksingh6927]

Ample space in the second row, I am happy they are offering all of this in a very minimal budget

[@vaibhavdeshmukh9304]

Best and balanced review out of 8-10 that i hv gone through....best advice was just Wait for First line of owners commets . thanks

[@chinthuk1759]

Wow amazing review !!!. I have been watching multiple reviews of this car but this is undoubtedly the best .

[@suryakathiravan]

I have seen almost all reviews in youtube... But this is the one I expected... Very nicely put together with all pros and cons... Well done guys 👍

[@mananparikh6556]

Love the XUV7oo. However it misses few things: 1) ventilated seats 2) auto dimming rear view mirror 3) second row seats has no sliding back or forward 4) sun shades for second row 5) no modes like zip zap zoom on Petrol version 6) no ambient lighting 7) XUV7oo projection by side rear view mirror on the ground Wish these features were available, it would have been a full packaged SUV.

[@harshdeshpande6696]

I've potentially seen almost all the reputed brands views and reviews of 700 and I can tell there's none better than this. Thank you!

[@youngdrug5927]

Such an unbiased review ; unlike other channels. Rohit is always honest and knows how to review a car.

[@TheWanderTraveller]

I was a Fan of AUTOCAR.. seeing this review. i feel like this should be the benchmark for all car reviews.. Good Job Overdrive

[@rajivt1982]

This is the only video talking about the negatives of the vehicle...A very good review!!

[@afsalmanichembil]

The best review ever. OD & Evo are the best in the business when it comes to the English reviews. all the best guys. more to go. you guys deserve more views. please improve camera quality a little bit. 10/10 👍👌

[@oops262686]

Another great review 👍 amazing how you keep the balance in tone but use the appropriate words to describe a feature or feeling

[@MrBikerboy2]

The Best XUV 700 Review out in the market.

[@rohit_paradkar]

Thank you 🙏🏼, I’m glad you liked it. Pls do share if you can.

[@drnisargchavan]

Thank you that Rohit did this review. I like his nitpicking and the way that front door looks is funny. It's worth 36mins video. Nice to hear Mahindra worked on suspension otherwise within month of use whole car wobbly.

[@vineetbansal1798]

Wow , what’s a elaborate review . Kudos to you Rohit . You have set a standard for you , except for Vinayak of car& bike , I bet no one is near to you . All the best Man.

[@Shashank-eu3sx]

This guy did video on Punto 90hp ..that was awesome. Crystal clear explanation. Kudos to mahindra....you brought back euphoria in redundant overpriced market.

[@rohit_paradkar]

Wow, that was a long time ago! Thank you 🙏🏼

[@Shashank-eu3sx]

@@rohit_paradkar Yes that was best hatch back then..all reviews were biased towards swift. You did commendable video on strength of Punto. I owned three fiat's before. So connected with your video.

Awesome review as before Pros: Nice design Fit and finish Colours Feature list - several segment firsts Length Touch screen dash board and central console combo tab Cons: Ventilated seats Paddle shifters Design flaw in front window with extra fiber area, real eye sore and design team flaw

[@padmanabhans2894]

Rohit, this has been one of the best reviews from you. The product is impressive so is its price. I was checking the announcement of price multiple times to disclaimers. Good review and nice vehicle.

[@industheories]

Needs to have sliding second row give options of space for 3 rd row passenger s...

[@DhanushER]

May be Mahindra can try this as well, 1. Change the second seat to a movable one. That will make it more cool. 2. Add one wireless charger for backend people as well.. just like Hyundai Alcazar. 3. Change the position of Parking camera. 4. Add sun blind for all windows. 5. Door handles can be a push handle instead of this to come out always- which can create confusion as said in video and people may try to "push" it inside.

[@ajaymsingh1]

Superb in depth review. One of the best from all the auto journos who covered this media drive.

[@JosephJithin]

Wow..what a fantastic review and what a fantastic car!! A Really proud Indian product..I Love it....One thing we Indians should realize...we are paying too much price for all the foreign vehicles.. I would say almost 1.5 to 2 times the price in other countries. Time to support good cars from Mahindra and Tata

[@ashlyth01]

Perfect unbiased review! Very rare to get such perfect reviews now a days!

[@ghostofbase]

Thats a lot of car for the money. Cars in the segment below are also going to feel the heat. I really appreciate Mahindra getting features like ADAS in to an affordable price bracket. This will definitely change the game.

[@ravanan1092]

His reviews are far better than other auto journalists but it is sad that he could not able to attract lot of viewers when compared to others.

[@ajinkyapandit9136]

Brilliant review. Saw many videos, and you're one of my favourite for a reason👍🏼

[@akritibasu3290]

I am in love with this SUV the Monocoque Chasis is an expensive thing!

[@aravindsasi83]

There is a lot to worry for Kushaq and Taigun. This just feels very well priced and with the features and the engine options, Mahindra has got another winner for sure.

[@drsanjotkurane]

Wooow what a review Rohit. You have summed up everything thing. You have given very important and useful information rather than just enumerating the features and dimensions. This is the beat review I have seen,,,, Rohit 👍

[@vijaychoudharyns1289]

Seen almost all major auto channel reviews for the xuv 700 unveil...but man u r on a different level. Very level headed, very clear in thought and presentation, no shoutiness, absolutely refined.........lets just say just like the car...but without the downsides .... fantastic stuff OD, esp Rohit! The best one out there for the xuv 700.....

Only thing that could hurt it, is probably waiting periods. I'm excited to see and drive one in the flesh :D Stellar review as always, Rohit! Kudos!

Super review...............and his body language hints that he is really very happy with XUV 700 and of-course Mahindra will address few negative points which he highlighted during the review.

Really liked the review alot. Perhaps the most detailed and comprehensive I have seen amongst sea of reviews. Great job 👍👍

[@kanencrypted6315]

It's finally a dawn after a dark night of bigger hatches being called SUVs.

[@anandmehta2323]

This is still not an SUV. Its an MPV. If they launch the AWD version, that could be termed as an SUV. SUV's are never FWD. Heavy FWD vehicles dont do well even in mild offroading as weight and grip transfers to non-driven wheels . SUV means offroad capable. In India we have this trend of calling any tall or large vehicle an SUV.

[@greatsrikar]

@@anandmehta2323 AWD is optional. But you can get an XUV 700 with AWD. Its on their website.

[@anandmehta2323]

@@greatsrikar Yes But what I mean to say is only those AWD variants of the XUV 500 can even be considered as SUV's depending on the AWD setup and how it performs in tests, ground clearance etc. The rest of the FWD range of XUV 700's are definitely not SUV's. They classify as MPV's.

[@greatsrikar]

@@anandmehta2323 Yes, I do get your point.

[@roy355]

Well explained. Overall the best review of the xuv700 as compared to other channels.

Hi Rohit, its quite a review. I have been following your videos for sometime and i must say, u do a great job in bringing out the real insights of a vehicle. I really loved the 700 but i have a question- with all the new features and hardware, will it be more on the maintenance side to carry ?

[@nileshlingras4369]

Very honest review than any other channels covering THE XUV 700 story. All the whims and fancies are good to have but miss a bit of usability when it comes to India driving conditions and thrills that the drivers are looking for esp. while driving M&M SUVs

[@sharkishere1]

The very best review one can ask for. Thank you so much Rohit and OD. I have been lurking in this car and this segment for too long now and have gone over comparisons and reviews from every guy out there.. Rohit is the king when it comes to reviews and XUV700 Looks to be the champion in the category.

[@IndianNatiional]

Test driven myself AX7 L both Petrol (AT) and Diesel (AT, MT) and I just can't wait to get it. Worried about ADAS initially but gain confidence gradually. Works perfectly fine. Only worry now is the loooooooooooong waiting queue 😉😉!!
