                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.

                  Volkswagen Virtus

                  • Sophisticated look: Classy, understated styling. Sporty GT variant on offer too
                  • Feature-loaded: 8-inch digital driver’s display, 10.1-inch touchscreen, ventilated seats, electric sunroof are among the highlights
                  • Great boot space: 521 litre boot is segment leading. 60:40 split rear seats bumps up practicality
                  • Strong engine options: 1- and 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engines promise excitement
                • 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.

                  Volkswagen Virtus

                  • Less rear seat space: Lack of width and strong seat contouring means the Virtus is best used as a four seater
                  • Limited powertrains: No diesel of hybrid engine options. City offers a strong hybrid powertrain.
