What TorqPulse Readers Will Appreciate
Strong versatility: With a choice between petrol and diesel, manual or automatic, 6- or 7-seats, the XUV700 covers a broad spectrum of needs.
Modern tech & safety: This is not just a hulking SUV but one filled with features, making it fit for both daily drives and family escapes.
Presence & value: For what you’re getting — space, engine, features — the starting price presents compelling value in this premium SUV space.
Suitability for multiple roles: Whether you’re driving to work, taking the family out, or heading on weekend trips, the XUV700 offers that “do-everything” capability
Things to Consider / Trade-Offs
Variant clarity is key: With many engine, seating and drivetrain options, make sure you pick the variant that fits your use case and budget.
Running costs: Bigger engines + premium features = higher maintenance, fuel cost, tyres etc. If you drive mostly short urban trips, factor that in.
Space vs SUV size: While roomy, the packaging might still be less agile in tight city traffic compared to smaller SUVs; manoeuvrability and parking may need attention.
Future value & tech updates: As newer models or facelifts arrive (with even more tech or electrified powertrains), resale considerations might matter
Final Verdict for TorqPulse
If you’re a driver who values space, capability, modern tech and SUV presence — and you’re willing to invest in a slightly premium offering — the XUV700 is a very strong pick.
If instead your priority is purely city commuting, best fuel economy, maximum seats for a large family or lowest cost ownership, then you might compare with smaller or more economical SUVs before making the decision.
