Not sure about the 24-30k kms per year logic. Petrol cars cost ~ ₹8 per km whereas EVs cost ₹1-2 per km. So even in the worst case scenarios it takes 50000 kms to make up the extra cost (including savings from service costs). Considering mass market owns cars for 5 years on average, one needs to drive not more than 10-12k kms per year which equates to ~1000 kms per month. I’m an EV user for the last 3.5 years and you can trust me with these facts

And one should never think about battery replacement or cost as it’s done only when something is really wrong or the capacity is way below 80%.

Bought the XUV400 EL Pro two weeks ago. Have owned and driven a Tesla model Y for over a year so I have lived the life of an EV owner. The space inside is just very practical and the performance of the car in “fun” mode is adequate. It makes a lot of sense to drive this car here in Bangalore with adequate charging infrastructure. Finally, I actually like the light steering wheel for a city car like this. Really helps be nimble in this stop start traffic. Where I feel they still have to do a lot more is the QA on the units. My drive mode switch was faulty from the time of delivery and is still not fixed. I am giving them the benefit of the doubt however i am patiently waiting for them to fix it with new switches. The OTA with CarPlay and adaptive reverse guidelines are also still just promises with no ETA Adrenox is no where close to being a finished product in itself, for me, this has been the biggest let down. ( remember my reference is a Tesla)

Karthik sir the way your spot-on about 400's traction control and wheel spinning problem is .....Uff!. Here's the story. One of my friend got a XUV 400 from the first batch last year. One night he got into an accident with a Range rover. I'm like its a different league car...why? He said the acceleration was so exhilarating he felt confident racing that car. Exactly like you said he ran out of control in a corner with some sand, hit the range rover and they both hit the divider, half of the XUV 400's body got damaged bad (I'm surprised how it got 5 stars, front axle and 2 wheels popped out). Range rover got only 2 of its panels damaged. He was in shock himself, he said in the first 2 months it seemed in control but something weird happened that night of the accident.

Hi, so I was seriously considering the EL Pro 39.5 KWH. I have beenn driving for about 11 years iin Bangalore now, and last 2 years have been Tigor EV, so I am familiar with EV driving too and I love how effortless and smooth yet powerful the EV driving experience. So I'm very tempted to go for another EV. I do have some questions - When you say XUV 400 feels incomplete even after the 2024 update - is there a safety concern in using the fast/fearless drive modes in city or on the highway? And if I understand correctly, Fun mode is more than adequate/punchy for the city, but on the highway it may limit your overtaking opportunities due to the cap on top-speed. But if your highway driving style is not rushed, but more laidback and if you overtake only when there's enough room and time in a steady/linear fashion than bursts of speed, would you still feel there's an issue/limit in using Fun mode on the highway? Or is there again a safety concern on using even the Fast mode on the highway, even if it's for overtaking? And in the city if I want to overtake in quick bursts (when I'm rushing to beat the traffic/signal etc) does the fun mode have enough power for that without a safety concern?

In my view Mahindras NMC is better than Tatas LFP because , 1. Mahindra uses the battery of Farasis Energy which is a brand in worlds top 10 battery manufacturer list. Whereas Tata haven't yet properly reported the company they use. 2. Nexon EV has a large number of battery replacement got within the last few months where none of XUV never did a battery replacement. 3. If Tatas LFP is of a good quality why can't they offer a good period of warranty like BYD does. 4.LFP is a testing technology it's still not that stable as NMC. So BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Premium cars of Tesla,Volvo,Kia,Hyundai all uses the same NMC as Mahindra. After these scenarios I think XUVs NMC is obviously better than TATAs LFP. But still actual LFP technology of BYD which is gonna be used in future BE series of Mahindra can be better than current NMC of XUV400

Booked the 39.4 kwh battery pack model and waiting for delivery. Believe me, it is way better than previous version. It is way more comfortable than Nexon for a person of my built. I was never in for EV vehicles but after driving this and looking at it’s practicality I went in for this. Plus at this price range we don’t get much of a vehicle except shoddy maruti and hyundai vehicles. I somewhat like the basic stuff which really works in long term. It has cruise control, traction control, rear AC vents, sunroof, 6 airbags, wireless charger and not to forget a very usable boot. Rest I hope this decision is not wrong as it is my first car 😅

Low was also used by honda amaze diesel automatic 1.5 i-dtec and it means that it won't go to higher gear and in mahindra it means Low speeds and if you try to go high speed it will just leave you stranded when ever you leave the accelerate peddle with that pull of regen. As far as the previous owners are concerned, I have many friends who have bought the "pre feature version" the good part was that they got a heavy discount on the top end variant at that time(long range model) many of them got it for around 16.5 lakhs including the fast charger and fair deal of accesories

A while back there was a media blitz of many prominent channels doing review of Nexon Vs 400, all of them recommended Nexon at the end but it was quite evident that they were really promoting and making a case for 400 by giving it more air time in the video. You didn't just give an honest review but also talked about EV purchase dilemmas which needs a deeper conversation. My everyday commute is 70 km, 5 days a week, will EV make sense?
@motorinc5 ай бұрын
That’s 1400km a month. Not in the sweet spot… so is it a lifestyle choice? 😁
@abhinavraj10014 ай бұрын
Definitely go ahead brother. I drive around 2,000kms a month. Now I'm at 12,000km exactly after 6months. In my calculations by 5years I would cover the car cost entirely. 😂 I drive Tiago EV. Go ahead.. 👍

Here is one topic I would like you guys to talk about. The lack of 7 seater SUVs with side-facing third row seats that come with an automatic transmission. Why is this important? Because I own a TUV 300 AMT version and I'm finding it incredibly difficult to replace it. Side-facing third row seats provide an independent door for third row passengers to get in and out of the car without disturbing second row passengers. When you have a single passenger on the third row containing side-facing seats, that person gets to stretch their legs like they're on a bed. In conclusion, I would say that unless you put tall people in them (you shouldn't be putting tall people in any third row to begin with), side facing third row seats are superior to front facing third row seats. An automatic transmission option on such a vehicle provides added convenience. The only vehicles that offer side-facing third row seats anymore are the Bolero, Bolero Neo and the Scorpio Classic and unfortunately, none of them provide an automatic transmission option anymore.

3:58 OMG! Chevrolet Beat Diesel LT 2011 daily driver here, I can’t believe my car is mentioned here!😅 I’ve put on about 115K kms on it and still going strong! Had no major issues on it and it being diesel still gives 20+ kmpl milage as well!🔥 The interior is still in pristine condition, the quality is unbelievable in the sense that it has lasted in such a good condition for this long! Shame to see such a capable company leave a developing country which has such high potential. I unfortunately am not able to find the brochure online anywhere but I might have the physical copy of it lying somewhere since the time I bought it 😂 if you anybody wants it, do reply I’ll scan it and drop a g-drive link.
