Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Tata Safari
- Design: Muscular styling is attractive and special Black Editions command great road presence
- Premium interior design: Touch-sensitive AC panel, ambient lighting and different finishes feel rich
- Feature loaded: 14.5” Samsung OLED touchscreen, 10.25” driver’s display, front and rear seat ventilation, 10-speaker JBL sound system
- Second row: Boss mode, slide and recline second row and winged headrests make for a great chauffeur driven car
- Powertrain options: Petrol and diesel engine options with manual and automatic transmissions
Mahindra XEV 9e
- Two battery pack options with an estimated real-world range of 400-500km and 175kW DC fast charging compatibility feels reassuring on long road trips
- The strong safety suite includes well-calibrated L2 ADAS. Works well in Indian conditions and very useful in low visibility situations
- Performance: Smooth for regular usage and punchy on highways
- Feature-rich: Triple 12.3-inch displays, 16-speaker Harman/Kardon audio, auto park, and powered and ventilated front seats

Tata Safari
- No all-wheel-drive option available
- Refinement: Diesel engine is loud, needs better insulation
- Quality control: Inconsistent panel gaps and tech package tends to glitch from time to time
Mahindra XEV 9e
- Rear seat experience could be better: Sloping roofline limits headroom and under thigh support feels less for tall people
