    A Compact SUV With Power And Style
    I recently tried this model , i feel the XUV300 is a strong option. Talking about its design , The design is sporty and modern, especially with the sunroof. I get mileage around 9 kilometer per liter in the city, but on the highway, it improves to 13-14 kilometer per liter. Servicing costs is reasonable . Overall, the XUV300 is a cool-looking SUV with good power and decent space, but mileage could be better.

    Mahindra XUV300 Is Affordable And Practical Car
    I decided to gift the Mahindra XUV300 to my wife, which costs around 15 lakhs on the road. It is a compact SUV with a mileage of about 15 kmpl, perfect for city driving. The car comes with features like a touchscreen display, keyless entry, and rear parking sensors. Safety is a priority with dual airbags and ABS. Plus, it has a spacious cabin with comfortable seats for long rides. With its affordable price and practical features, the XUV300 is an ideal choice for my wife daily commuting needs.

    XUV 300 Is The Best Compact SUV Available
    The Mahindra XUV 300 is a great innovation in market of affordable compact SUVs. The 1.5 litre engine is punchy making it fun to drive and the good ground clearance makes the ride comfortable even on the bad roads. The design is muscular and the build quality is tough. It has mileage of around 18 kmpl. The interiors are the best part of this car. It has all advance features are provided like a big touchscreen display, charging etc. inside the car. Though the backseat are not much comfortable as expected and the boot space is fairly decent.

    Over All A Brilliant Car
    It's an amazing car. Performance of the car is extremely good. Very comfortable seats also the suspension is tuned perfectly. Driving dynamics of the car are also extremely good. Very much value for money as you can get discount on it in festivals. Feature list is also good for its price as even lower variants get sunroof and you can get accessories fitted from dealership. Also no doubt on safety as it has 5 star safety rating from GNCAP and all 4 disc brake is good safety feature as well. Only one thing is that in petrol variants it gives only 12 to 13 mileage but I think it's fine if you are getting such kind of performance.
