Mahindra XUV 3XO (AX5 Petrol Automatic). I have a family of 5 members, and was looking for a more spacious car after driving a very old Hyundai i10 for a couple of years. I also wanted a car which is comparatively easy to handle and park in tight spaces (congested lanes of North Delhi). 3XO is a perfect option - spacious for 3 adults in rear seat, good legroom, and an engine with good power and torque (beating other cars from the same segment). Other good things include all the features which I wanted from my car - wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto, sunroof, rear ac vents, height adjustable seat (I and my wife use the same car, and need to adjust the seat).

I like the Mahindra XUV 3XO because it is my first car. It was very special. On the short span driving the car I like the driving dynamics the confidence it gives in cursing speeds of 80-100. It is spacious for 5 people. Coming to the engine I always wanted to go for a NA engine but ended up getting 3 cylinder turbocharged unit I believe it is up upto how we maintain the car which decides the reliability. This engine is pretty powerful and puts a smile on the driver's face.
