The bitter truth
The company that claims to be at the helm of Indian auto manufacturing isn't good enough. The car that it claims to be its premium car isn't good enough. It is a dangerous car which can kill you all of a sudden. Imagine, you are driving a 2-year-old XUV500 at 80kmph on the Yamuna Expressway and are overtaking a slow moving truck. Suddenly the steering stops working, you are headed straight for death in the truck. Well, my steering suddenly stops working at times when I drive. It's just that circumstances were different and I wasn't that fast so the incident didn't turn out to be deadly. Nonetheless, when I contacted my dealer, to claim the warranty, it dawned on me that this isn't even covered in warranty. This was my worst experience yet with the car, but that doesn't mean this was the only problem I've suffered with the car or the company, but it was severe enough for me to have brought this to public knowledge. Other things like rusty doors, faulty air conditioning and a pathetic infotainment system are things that I happened to have lived with.

- Satisfied Long Term OwnerBeen self-driving my XUV since Jan 2013. Have enjoyed the experience. Smooth, efficient, and powerful engine. Have driven long journeys to the hills, highways, and city too. Except for its size factor in the hills, has not faced any problems. The low beam is inadequate.Read MoreWas this review helpful?YesNo

- Charming XPPower with features loaded SUV not compromising comfort though. What I really liked about this beast is the Power produced by it, and when combines with the enormous torque (360mm) it behaves like a real CHEETAH. One thing could have been better if they provide adjustable seats(to and fro) for the 2nd row which would ultimately help to augment the space for the 3rd row. Otherwise, overall XP with this SUV (for the last 2.5 yrs) is just awesome, and can't complain about anything.Read MoreWas this review helpful?YesNo
