Pretty decent car and value for money for 34K.

Your car is Japanese / German. Your vodka is Russian. Your pizza is Italian. Your kebab is Turkish. Your democracy is Greek. Your coffee is Brazilian. Your movies are American. Your tea is Tamil. Your shirt is Indian. Your oil is Saudi. Your numbers are Arabic and your letters are Latin. Almost everything else in your house is made in China. Dont worry about this car being chinese or indian made?

    Your numbers aren't Arabic mate, they came from India. Europeans got it through Arabs and didn't know any difference lol.

      Oh yes just did some research, thank you, that is great.

      Ancient India corresponds to the region that is now Pakistan.
      Additionally, ancient India is not directly connected to the modern Republic of India, as India is not a continuous civilization.

    I like that OP is going with 'it doesn't matter where it comes from', but he's clearly supporting it specifically because of where it comes from.

    • -3

      Or because he bought one and can vouch for it? If an Indian buys an iPhone, what country is s/he supporting? Sorry but that was a silly and childish comment.

    Was looking at getting a cheap roundabout like mitsu asx for $15-$18k as a banger car to go to the shops and such , its starting to look more attractive to buy a new car for less than $30k instead !with the omoda at $26k from costco, and this 4 *4 for this price, why would ppl buy 2nd hand for a few thousand less .

    • That's what I'm thinking as well… just a cheap city basher with long warranty.

      • 100%, for $10 grand or so more you can get a vastly superior car with 5- 7 yr warranty . Am seriously considering going for the omoda, with 2nd hand cars, you never know what life it has lived, and all the people selling either look sketchy or the car looks like it has had a hard life. Will try to see if i can get a sub 30k on novated lease for a short term, that would be perfect . An attraction of a banger car is that you can park or drive it anywhere without worry, but at this price, i could treat it as banger new car .

  • Looks good. Probably much safer than what I currently drive by virtue of it being newer but now to find out?

    • Crash it into your current car and see which ones comes out on top.

    If I’m buying an Indian car I expect I can haggle with them for at least 2h?

    • +2

      yeah will they mind if i say "do the needful" when it needs to be serviced and under warranty repair?

  • +3

    Damn thats a good deal for a 7 seater.. pity the Thar has not been allowed in.. if these things work on Indian roads.. they will work anywhere and work well ..as for the India and CCP haters well BYD sales in Oz in the electric car segment is staggering not to mention even Toyota is collaborating with them for the PHEV and EV range so if you don't like it ..stick with what you like I suppose but things are highly competitive in the Australian automotive market now which I think is awesome for consumers

    No safety rating no deal. Since when did safety becomes "not relevant" for a 2 ton block of metal travelling at 100+ km/h?

    • Wait until I tell you about 2 NASA astronauts stuck on the ISS.

    I remember the same was said of Hyundai and Daewoo when they launched out here..Daewoo was sold off but Kia did not face the same pre concieved country based hatered because hyundai had made its mark by then 10 years later and look at them now.. if you close your minds only you lose

      Case by case.
      I remember Proton, Foton, Lada and Leyland they are all gone and they were shit.
      Just because they are new to the market does not mean they are inevitably good quality.

      • No it does not but by the same token does not mean they are inevitably bad quality ..moreover they come with a warranty which none of the mentioned cars did and they cannot just leave the market and not honour warranty on existing cars ..unless they shut down and go insolvent… these are companies with a loong history established and supported by their respeective governments..

        • They all would have offered warranties when new, but they left the country. Parts and service became impossible.
          There is little chance that all the new manufacturers hitting our shores will survive in our market.
          There are over 12 new brands coming in. Need to pick very wisely

      idk what kind of messed up logic this is, but the state of cars Hyundai pumped out at launch were so completely different from what they're producing now. They share nothing but a common brand name. Nobody """"""lost"""""" by not buying one of those early models.

    Time for used car price to start tumbling! Woo hoo!

  • This ticks all the boxes and it is said the only reason it doesn't have a safety rating is because the rating system is multiplied and no active safety features resulted in Zero. Which is silly really.

  • Is there a reason No ANCAP rating on this car?

  • -6

    If I couldn't afford a Toyota, I'd opt for a Mahindra over a GWM or any Chinese brand. Mahindra vehicles are proven to be tough and reliable.

    • +3

      In which universe are these proven to be tough OR reliable?

  • Anyone else dread getting these as ubers?
    Even the indicator lights sound shit

  • If you see the new Hyundai Santa Fe in photos, it looks horrible. In person, it looks great. The XUV 700 is the opposite. In photos it looks OK. In person, man it is ugly.

    That said, actually a really decent SUV for the price. Similar to the captains chair version of the pre-2024 Hyundai Santa Fe. Really comfortable drive. Just wish Mahindra wouldn't take their design ideas from the early 80s SUVs.

  • Interesting how all the features are just 'tech' related. Nothing about engine capacity, materials used or engine power.

  • No ANCAP rating, not good enough. Previous gen were terrible with safety features, and even though this one has improved, it's still risky without any rating. Resale values are very low and you have to take a huge hit to eventually trade it in as not many buyers are considering this brand. Drive quality, noise, handling, fuel efficiency, power all these things are still lacking as compared to some of the established brands. Parts availability and service/maintenance is another thing which is a bit of unknown. I'd give it a miss and go for a Korean brand instead.

  • Anyone considering buying a Mahindra should join their owners page on Facebook to understand issues with these cars. I've been following xuv700 and scorpio Facebook pages for over a year now and both these models are full of problems it seems. It's almost as if customers have to visit dealership at least once or twice a month for so called "software updates" just to avoid screen going blank frequently. This is just one problem. Both scorpio and xuv700 suffer from multiple other faults too. So many customers are complaining there. I was planning to buy one but these complaints from real customers on their Facebook page steered me away.

  • How is this a deal?
