2016 Mahindra XUV 500 | Expert Review

[@arunvishnum.e3156]

I have driven this car for 11,104km no problems yet.No car in this range,even Innova,can't match handling performance and braking.All four disc brakes are perfect.Even the beast look and price.This shows that, never underestimate Indian

[@armaankhan361]

I am also owning a xuv 500 w10 variant and i drove it around 16000 km without an issue go for it hands down to mahindra great job

[@rajveersingh-xu3ms]

What is the mileage?

[@nikhil199029]

~12 disel

[@riakulkarni7229]

Nicely shot video, thumbs up to Abhishek & team . XUV ROCKS !!!

[@trohankumar]

Is this the Lava Red colour of xuv500.. I find this one the best colour out of the bunch.. Any colour suggestions, i am going to book a W10..

[@cardekho]

+T. Rohan Kumar This is Sunset Orange colour.

[@shyamsundarbidgar6755]

sir,among xuv and innova crysta which is best for comfort and low maintenance??

[@cardekho]

+Shyam Bidgar The choice of looks will be subjective, but Crysta is the better performer, offers the better cabin and is backed by Toyota’s reliability, after-sales experience and resale value. We’d still put your money on the Innova Crysta, but it’s recommended you opt for the top-end variant as the lower grades don’t offer much kit. If stretching your budget isn’t an option, then the XUV500 is still a fantastic package and offers great value for its price.

Loose the shades when talking to the camera Mr. Presenter

[@insanecow236]

Great Review!! Thats how every car review should be. You persuaded me to buy one!

[@THATWAMASI3002]

he is a beast... charming... unfortunately sold it last month... guyz.. if u r looking for an SUV with hell lot of features, then look no further. Mahindra xuv500 is the best.. Good review Cardekho team... wouLD like to see your review on 1.99mhawk xuv500..

[@cardekho]

Thank you mate, have forwarded your request to the team and we will come up with something for you.

[@satyamdewangan9873]

which is best... innova crysta or the xuv500 just in terms of ride comfort and low maintenance??

[@cardekho]

Innova Crysta is comfortable to drive and also is quite spacious. However, you sit high in XUV 5OO and the view is quite nice. We will give star extra to Innova Crysta for its premium interiors and the list of comfort features. Talking about maintenance, Innova should be slightly expensive to maintain as compared to XUV 5OO. Hence I would suggest you to go for XUV 5OO.

[@satyamdewangan9873]

+CarDekho if you say innova has more.comfort..then I think I should go for innova... I guess

[@cardekho]

That would thoroughly depend on your requirements. I would suggest you to call us on our toll free number so that we can map your requirements and suggest you accordingly. The number is 1800-200-3000(Mon to Sat, 10 AM to 7 PM).

[@bhaveshbisht9763]

[@cardekho]

No, XUV 5OO does not have glove box cooling.

[@adityapathak342]

Bhavesh Bisht ..It does have one.

[@diyshankar]

Yes this has a cooled box on the arm rest box

Go for fortuner if you would like to have power otherwise, XUV is a great car to go with.

[@gurleenbhaloor513]

my fav...😘😘suv .()?.

[@thegreatestarpit]

I am planning to buy this car but am confused considering the reviews at many places regarding the long term reliability, sensor and electronic issues. Can someone who has used this vehicle for long suggest on the reliability of the vehicles and and issues faced.

[@cardekho]

+Arpit Mangal The XUV500 comes across as one of the most value-for-money and well-rounded packages on offer in its segment. It does have drawbacks like the average interior quality, low boot space and steering that lacks any feel, but it still gives you a lot of bang for buck and makes a strong case for you to consider. Click on the link to check our User Review about Mahindra XUV500: bit.ly/2gZN3YS We also recommend you take a look for Tata Hexa as well in the same range.

[@thegreatestarpit]

@CarDekho Thanks for your response. I agree that this is the best bang for the buck. But can you please tell me if there are mechanical or electronics issues that I might face in future after purchasing as I intend to keep the vehicle for 10-12 years and use it on long road trips to Himalayan region with no roads.

[@cardekho]

+Arpit Mangal Nothing sort of that has been reported to us so far. You can easily opt for it & don't forget to share your experience with us after purchase.

[@pateljimmy5692]

Plz make vedio....on hits and misses on mahindra xuv500...if it is possibal.

[@cardekho]

+Patel Jimmy Check this out: bit.ly/2EFhJ8t

[@ramdinmawia3799]

I would be very nice to see how the xuv500 able to cope with an off road... because of that much price range it would be really to test on an off road

[@abhinavhoneybhardwaj]

any comments/experiences if anyone has driven W8/W10 FWD through leh-ladhakh or spiti valley ?

[@ashishdeshmukh3007]

Sir the base model of xuv500 is good?

[@cardekho]

Yes, it has got all the features that you need. You can go for it. Click here to see what you get bit.ly/2cOvbOb .

[@kumarkaran26]

where is tre comparison between scorpio and xuv500 no channel have posted yet dont know why will you post it

[@PrometheusHR]

Great Job with the interiors , but sorry to say the made the exteriors bad.... infact the old exteriors looked way better (team Mahindra : go easy on the curves and chrome highlights guys) . The exteriors didn't require any changes, but the ones that they did made it too flashy and gaudy ...I would be embarrassed to drive some thing so flashy on the roads!

[@HarshPATEL-xw8ur]

I can't decide between XUV500 or Innova crysta !! My main points is Comfort ride and safety !! Plz help me !!

[@cardekho]

If you are looking for a car which is comfortable, I would suggest you to go for Innova Crysta. However, if you go off roads, you should go for XUV 5OO.

[@HarshPATEL-xw8ur]

+CarDekho and for safety purpose ??

[@cardekho]

XUV 500 is the one which wins the race of safety.

[@rameshsharma7851]

[@SahilKumar-zh5xd]

Everything is perfect in New age XUV 500 Except the transmission !! Where is the Automatic transmission gearbox ?? Even Scorpio has Automatic versions now.

[@skulldow]

Thumps up

[@mithrandir491]

sahil kumar suv + automatic + indian roads = big NO.

[@SahilKumar-zh5xd]

bulbadox Well in dat case check the stats of bookings of creta. More than 50% booked cars are Automatic !! Have stats in ur hand dude bfor saying anything

[@mithrandir491]

sahil kumar These are not suv's but low hp cars pretending to be suv's, they know indian customers are dumb asses. Anyway, Automatic transmission gearboxes for suv's are not tuned to Indian roads, the software designed for them works well with the European roads where there are little ground variations. Anyhow, if you want to carry overweight aunties then any suv would work.

[@SahilKumar-zh5xd]

bulbadox if its not the suv den y r u into debate ?? Hahahaha lol

Informative review so thanks. It is sutler for sure and front face is attractive. Please share the comparison with its competitors so that buying would be easy. I have budget of about 15 to 18 lacs, and I am looking for safety and comfort. Which is the best SUV or MPV in that price range and why? I look forward for your valuable inputs. Thanks

[@Naveenkumar-vu6fw]

Good review, bgm,video..Fog lamps &3rd row seats are horrible

[@arjun231212]

Which color is this orange or red

[@adityapathak342]

Arjun Chaturvedi sunset orange it is.

[@adityapathak342]

But it is not easily available. .go for white , silver or black.

[@harshghotz9228]

fast and furious ka sound use kiya

[@btarunr]

This facelift would have been perfect if not for the front foglamp design that looks borrowed from Hyundai sedans. Maybe a simple trapezium-shaped design would have done the job.

[@girishdhanresha3257]

NICE REVIEW BUT MUST GET A DEPTH REVIEW CAN U LET ME KNOW WETHER THIS CAR IS WORTH BUYING BECAUSE I GOT MANY COMPLAINTS FROM VARIOUS CUSTOMERS WHATS TRUE

[@saikiran4347]

all are good but middle air conditioning is bad

[@paltezoheb2093]

Mine is xuv 500 w10 7000kms done i am facing some problems with my vehicle Doors lock unlock problem Battery sensor problem Battery was totally discharged at 5000 km (I have to jump start it ) My ac stopped working in middle of drive I bought my car in April 2016 and facing such problems in such short time now I doubt about its reliability Every time I go to service centre I feel like I am invisible such a worst service by global mahindra Panvel I was facing battery sensor problem They kept me standing there for 3 hrs and then they said me that car will take 2-3 days to repair And when I called there head he just switched off his phone This car is full of problems yeah it's true that Hyundai Toyota are expensive but trust me they provide services like that too And to be straight forward I haven't faced such problems in my maruti Suzuki estilo till date 😕

[@inkvlogs639]

reliability is a bitch my friend..

[@pamaalhat8267]

Where your car passing You wont sell the car

[@chetannimkar5947]

you didn't told anything about rough road drive comfort and off road capabilities. It seems, the review is heavily compromised.

[@aniketbotkar]

Great Review Car dekho.!! Plz can you tell me the location where the video was shot.

[@cardekho]

Thank you for your appreciation. However, I am afraid, we will not be able to disclose the location.

[@prashikkhandare6640]

CarDekho but I know this location

[@manauwerkarim421]

this video is of which model of XUV500 w4,w6,w8,w10

[@cardekho]

It's W10 AWD variant.

[@mohit2010ify]

Good value for money, nice mileage, reliable enough, liked the designed as well, but never liked the interiors of Mahindra specially dashboard and cheap plastic...

[@ranjan235]

Very useful review, with in short time you have covered all the essential points any buyer would be looking for. I heard the ground clearance has been reduced from 200 mm to 160 mm to lower the exercise, how does this effect the off roading capability of the XUV ?

[@ruijesusrodrigues6531]

that was for the Scorpio not the xuv

[@kunalpatel9797]

Bootspec o liter

[@bhuvnesh5428]

How is SUV exterior body built and metal quality, Fandors are made of Fiber... and i think the rest of the body is not that solid too...

[@cardekho]

The built quality is average.

[@bhuvnesh5428]

Thanks....If we compare it with Scorpio body built then where XUV stands...What do you suggest me among scorpio S10 or XUV W6 based upon Durablity and body density.

[@Johnvalkyre]

mahindra is horrible but xuv looks good..

[@AbhijeetDolai007]

+Kenneth john yes mahindra is horrible in after service.

[@cardekho]

The claimed mileage for XUV 500 is 16 KMPL (Highway). It may vary in the real conditions depending upon the driving conditions and vehicle maintenance.

[@antonyjohns]

are you serious, I have got a jeep I don't think so it's simular any manner to jeep , jack ass

[@tridibearth]

+Syedbader Hussain From which angle??? Your dealer seems to have sold you a 2011 XUV saying it is a Grand Cherokee :P

[@pranthamchauhan]

Sir XUV 500 w6 2WD model FWD hai?

[@cardekho]

+Prantham Chauhan Yes.

[@ahanaftahmeed8620]

[@drarunbableshwarpediatricc2818]

COME TO THE POINT VERY USELESS VIDEO

[@divinvarghese3501]

true bro nothing about sitting comfort, which is really stupid. regret for having one

[@Olebull93]

I used to be a expert commentator, but then i took a arrow to the knee.

[@thirteenthchip9115]

Is it just me? I think the old XUV looks more modern, practical and interior looks more into the luxury line. While the new infotainment system, sunroof, automatic seat adjusters, Hydraulic bonnet lift are great additions, I am still figuring what was the actual need for including regenerating braking. This is not a electric car to have the batteries charged when you brake. Anyways, Mahindra could have just kept the original design of 2011 and updated the new features with the lighter beige leather upholstery. Whatever said and done, the original XUV was way better designed than the facelifted XUV of 2015.
