7 Seater with 7 Year warranty.

Save $3000, Drive Away Pricing Valid to 30 Sept 2024

Bunch of features as most cars have now but caught my attention due to 7 seats and 7 year warranty + Roadside assist and 34k Drive away.

Regd ANCAP,
———-
its good to have but just like Health star rating on food products in coles/Woolies . 5 star means best from mental perspective but may not be best ( possibly worst) for physical body. 5 star labeled fruit juice may be worse than coke/pepsi..

Features:
———

Dual HD 10.25” Infotainment and 10.25” Digital Cluster Screens
Android Auto and Apple Carplay
6 Speakers with Sound Staging
Adaptive Cruise Control’
Skyroof™ (Panoramic Sunroof)
Flush Door Handles
Cornering Lamp
2nd & 3rd Row Air Conditioning

More are listed on https://www.mahindra.com.au/xuv700/

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?

    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.

    • greatlamp on 12/09/2024 - 13:33

      The engine is discussed in the brochure, 150kw, 380Nm at 1750rpm. Seems powerful enough but it will chew through fuel. I'd spend a bit more on a diesel for something this large, you will save the difference in fuel costs in a few years.

    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.

    • bin555 on 12/09/2024 - 05:06

      That is true about previous generation. Can watch some YouTube videos. Sunmary was that they put body of new modern SUV in old spec car from 10 years ago where you don't have any safety features like auto braking, etc.

      The newer model though has those features now and is now at par with other cars like Kia, etc. Just not sure why they aren't getting their ANCAP rating done. Would be good to know official verdict from ANCAP. I expect the price to go up as well if they perform well in the rating.

      • Naigrabzo on 13/09/2024 - 08:59

        Nah man last ANCAP in 2023 was 0. They don't need an ANCAP rating. They already know what that's going to be.

    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.

    • dhileepudu on 12/09/2024 - 21:36

      Don't know about XUV700 but my scorpio never had any issues, I heard the XUV700 used to have the software problem or the screen going blank, but they should have solved this like 6 months ago, any XUV700 can comment more on this

      • NoHorny on 13/09/2024 - 10:10

        Nah, people are still reporting these problems on there. Good if you don't have any issues with your Scorpio, you may be the lucky one.

    I’d be ok driving a car without an ANCAP rating if it was just me inside it, but I couldn’t do it with my kids on board.

    Mahindra Scorpio was awarded 0 stars. I suspect that’s the reason behind the no ANCAP rating for the XUV.

        Yeah, Mahindra should have their own ANCAP rating. IT will be called "F%^ off"

  • jedimaster on 12/09/2024 - 08:05

    Not recommending it or anything but I checked some stats, it's the 2nd best selling vehicle in D1 segment in India behind Toyota Innova Hycross

    Can this be any lower on the ANCAP safety of 0.

    https://www.ancap.com.au/safety-ratings/mahindra/scorpio/470…

    Perhaps this car XUV700 will score -1.

    Buy and find out after a crash.

  • denny_mrl on 12/09/2024 - 09:32

  • HamBoi69 on 12/09/2024 - 09:44

    No ANCAP, no deal. As others have pointed out the build quality is crap, with customer support closely following.

    its good to have but just like Health star rating on food products in coles/Woolies . 5 star means best from mental perspective but may not be best ( possibly worst) for physical body. 5 star labeled fruit juice may be worse than coke/pepsi..

    Also, OP food and safety are not two things I relate.

    What's disappointing is a brand like Mahindra which has deep pockets and a huge presence in India. Thought it would be suitable to release a vehicle in Australia without doing any proper review on what's required to sell successfully in the Australian market.

    How did nobody think to review local ANCAP restrictions or conduct market research on what will be needed to sell here?

    My mate picked this up about 6 months ago for around 40 grand. He was stoked with it. I went on a trip with them – super comfy, drives real smooth. It’s got a big screen too (reckon I’ve seen something similar in the Kia Sportage). His family’s wrapped with the buy, and for 33k, I’d say it’s a great deal

    Keep in mind resale value is going to be relatively poor. XUV500 is worth only 60% after 3 years (no data on XUV700), about on par with Haval. By comparison, a Jap SUV is going to retain 85-90% after 3 years, typically.

      "By comparison, a Jap SUV is going to retain 85-90% after 3 years, typically."

      That was true during stock shortages in covid.

        It's still the case according to Redbook.

        • Cluster on 12/09/2024 - 15:22
          +1

          Redbook is based on COVID prices. It's woefully out of date and has completely unrealistic prices for many models.

          And of course you have to find a buyer willing to pay the price. You can't sell your car to Red Book.

          • Mr Bob Dobalina on 12/09/2024 - 15:23
            -2

            @Cluster: Check Carsales if you don't believe me. Most prices on there are even higher than Redbook. Redbook is constantly being updated and is widely used in the industry.

              @Mr Bob Dobalina: I sold my car on Carsales two months ago. Carsales was recommending a ridiculous sale price for my vehicle, and comparable cars were on the site for months (and are still there) waiting for a customer at the inflated Red Book price.

              Just because a person wants $X on Carsales doesn't mean they'll get it. Carsales doesn't care if the car sells. They've already got their money.

    What's with the racist comments on this. If you don't like this as a deal, don't buy the car. If there are others that do, let them buy it.
    34k for a 7 seater is a good deal, I would prefer this car over an MG or Chery, had an MG that lasted 25k Kms and the build quality was terrible. Lost electricsteering while driving at the speed of 90 on M7.
