  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ธ.ค. 2021
  • The Mahindra XUV700 may have burst on to the 7-seater SUV scene, but you can also get it in lower variants with a 5-seater option. That puts it straight in the crosshairs of the recently launched Volkswagen Taigun 1.5 TSI. Should you be picking the Taigun, which has proved itself to be the benchmark for ride and handling, or should you go for a mid-spec XUV 700 and skimp on some equipment while revelling in the presence and the mechanical package of the Mahindra? We answer these questions in this latest comparison video.

    On the first thought this kind of comparison seems odd, but remember in India we compare primarily by prices. So a buyer may actually choose between a sedan, a hot hatch, an offroader and a family muv all within the same price point.

      @RamaKrishnaGrandhi I believe the point being made was that having a 200 hp engine does not translate to bette performance. Reason why not all mercs, bmws or luxury cars do not have a big number and will still do the 0-100 dash in under 8 seconds compared to the xuv700s 9.5 . Engine bhp figures do not matter (relatively speaking) if the gearbox paired to it is tuned slower or the heft of the vehicle is more. Actual real world acceleration and speed depends a lot more on gearbox tuning, engine power delivery tuning, tyres, weight and so on.
      Not that the xuv700 is a bad car by any means, its an amazing car for the money. But the 200hp figure on the spreadsheet doesn't mean its going to beat (say an entry level bmw x1) on a track or in a straight line. Of course if you keep aside the fact that its almost twice the price.

    For me personally it would be the Volkswagen Taigun 1.5TSi DSG. No doubt the XUV is a very sorted product and Mahindra’s best shot yet but man that TSi+DSG combo is too hard to let go off, Taigun has also more city friendly dimensions and personally I prefer its looks. One thing for sure, things couldn’t become better for the mid-size SUV buyer and he has a lot of choice now to choose from the cars which suits him the most. I just hope Honda brings something interesting to the table now along with the Toyota’s rumoured SUV, it’s been quite a long time since anything spectacular has been done by the Japanese.

    good video but I do feel you guys should have compared Taigun to the AX5 variant by showcasing the proper AX5 variant. I know that you have tried to but a media car might not be available.
    I said because AX5 misses out on a lot of basic necessities which Taigun provides (especially cruise control, reverse parking camera, auto climate control, auto wipers, and headlamps, etc) but is a much bigger car. Would have made it an interesting review where one has to choose between a fully packed premium-feeling small car or a larger car with fewer features and luxury

    Very good review. Subscribed your channel 👍 I like both of these machines and looking for exact comparison. While my heart goes to Taigun, as I am looking for 2nd car, I voted for XUV700. The Dealer asked me to take delivery last week (AX7 petrol black) but I asked for reschedule to Jan due to depreciation risk associated with Dec month delivery. However I pretty much daily watch a video on these two cars 😁 reason exactly same as what you mentioned in the conclusion 😉 and below points go on my thinking,
    Pros of Vw:
    1) German Engineering and trust (in hyd a VW polo fell off from a flyover and both the car and driver are safe)
    2) Easy citi maneuver
    3) Dream to own a German car
    Cons of Vw:
    1) The mental quality is not good esp the front bonnet side panels
    2) Low seating
    3) Service and repair costs
    Pros of XUV700
    1) Majestic and road presence and drive abilities
    2) Features at the price point
    3) Most celebrated SUV of 2021
    Cons of XUV:
    1) Too many electronics and any glitch will make us go crazy and expensive and time consuming to fix
    2) Cost of ownership of an XUV700 AX7-P coming to Rs. 46,000-Rs.50,000 per month( 10 year ownership, 1000km drive per month)
    Pls do share your thoughts.

    Taigun would me more comfortable to drive in, in the city and an occasional trips outside. Its more of an pseudo Suv. If you are looking for something that can do cross country, without breaking a sweat (i mean the occupants), then the Xuv would be a better choice, just because its gotta bigger engine better suspension, more spacious for all that luggage. Even though I am a bit skeptical about the Xuv electronics and how the panels being put together for a rattle free ride, I still would go with the Xuv, considering the Fuel pump issue going on with the Taigun and Kuskaq, even though they say they've fixed it. I better reach my destination with a rattling car than a dead one.

  • @SuperAkashrana
    @SuperAkashrana 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    In a like for like comparison pricewise, between GT+ and AX5 you get quite a bit more kit on Taigun with more airbags, paddle shifters, climate control, keyless entry and push button start, TPMS, auto IRVM, rear camera, cruise control, telescopic steering, cooled glovebox, rain sensing wipers, ambient lighting, auto headlamps, wireless charger, better warranty; while XUV gets rear disc brakes, a panoramic sunroof and more space. If you jump to AX7 by putting in additional 2.5 lakhs you get 18" wheels, ADAS, powered driver seat, and leatherette upholstery; but you are still missing on wireless charger, telescopic steering, paddle shifters, keyless entry, auto irvm, ambient lighting and cooled glovebox. Taigun is offering more useful features overall besides the performance, as rationally how many times one will use the sunroofs in our weather or how many times in a single driver vehicle we need to adjust driving position that electric adjustments with memory function will be put to use. The things that work in favor of XUV700 are space and ADAS, but Taigun will be the easier wholesome package to live with on a daily basis.

    Great review! I was looking for something like this earlier as i was planning on buying the Taigun GT DSG but was tempted by the XUV AX5.
    Couple of things to note though, the AX5 variant doesn't compare to the Taigun GT or Topline variant in my mind. The XUV AX5 lacks parking sensors, rear camera, automatic AC, wireless charging etc.
    As i couldn't increase my budget for the AX7 models I went with the Taigun and am really happy with my purchase as the XUV's dimensions would have been a little big for me for city driving as it is.

    • @gautamparmar3786

      I gotto agree on the same thing, we were looking at a suv at 22 lakhs and we checked out the xuv700 ax5 and well mahindra is pushing people to buy the ax7 even though some wouldn't want to spend that much or want the 7 seats and looking at ax5 it barely had any features for 22 lakhs so we went with the taigun gt dsg and well we were even lucky to get one delivered in less than a week so really happy with the purchase and if anyone is looking to buy a suv at 22 lakhs I would definitely recommend taigun and do avoid looking at the ax5 xuv cause of many reasons, 1 being the waiting which is more than a year and second the ax5 isn't value for money it's just trying to push you to buy the ax7.

    • @cvkone1

      @@gautamparmar3786 I experienced the same when I went to enquire about the AX5, the Mahindra sales rep didn't even want to answer my questions about the variant and was pushing for the AX7. It all seems to be done for marketing. The AX7 variant in itself is a really good value for money package but not everyone can afford it whereas the other variants' feature list seem to be put together just to put it at a headline worthy price. I mean how can the AX5 which costs 20+ Lacs doesn't even come with automatic AC or cruise control. All you get is ADAS in the high priced models.
