Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Mahindra XEV 9S
- Striking Design: Looks premium and modern thanks to its lighting setup.
- Feature Rich: Gets all the features you can expect from a car of this price. No major misses.
- Highway Friendly: 500 km of real world range is more than enough for intercity commutes.
Tata Altroz
- Sharp looking - the redesigned grille, flush-fitting door handles, and connected tail lights give it a clean and modern look.
- Great rear seat experience - raised under thigh support and ample legroom offers great space for two average sized adults.
- Feature rich - 10.25-inch touchscreen, 10.25-inch digital driver’s display, and an electric sunroof make it a well-equipped hatchback.
- No compromise safety - 6 standard airbags, 360-degree camera, and an already established 5-star safety rating makes it a safe option.
- Only diesel engine option in the segment makes it more appealing to buyers who prioritize fuel efficiency.

Mahindra XEV 9S
- Sub-par Interior Quality: Not a premium as expected
- Low Boot Space: Barely any space left when all three rows are up.
Tata Altroz
- Fit and finish - many panel gaps on the outside and some flimsy elements inside break the cabin quality’s consistency.
- No diesel automatic option on sale and the diesel is limited to the one-below-top variant.
- Petrol engine gets too noisy under load and has more vibrations than expected.
- Turbo-petrol engine not offered with the facelifted version.
