XUV 3XO TGDI AT or Sonet 1.0 Turbo DCT? Which petrol automatic SUV would you buy?
Xuv3xo
Compare ax5 & htk plus or htx
3xo is far better in features, space and mileage
Bought 3XO TGDI for better performance, plus it's the widest car in its segment with better ADAS and solid build quality
XUV 3XO TGDI AT
I drove sonet and it felt like I am driving a toy, from driving dynamics, interior and build quality perspective. Whereas 3XO felt much more mature in every sense i tried to judge.
Toy? Dude you speak as if you are Max Verstrappen from F1. I am sure 99.99% folks out there don't have a privilege to drive on race tracks. Mahindra's steering is so dead you don't feel anything until you steer it 10 degrees on either side plus vibrations creeping into gearbox. Exactly what dynamics are you speaking about? Driving on a straight line?
Underline the sonet drives better and feels better, 0 to 100 is also faster if you look at power to weight ratio
@@venkateshanantharaman6773 by toy i mean the plastics used inside and the feeling when you drive it. I felt it to be so inferior that i would never want to be in that car again
@@domistry Hyundai and Kia platics are better than Mahindra and even VW/Skoda. Bhai Hyundai Kia is known for their interiors kya baat kar rahe ho? No cars in the segment are giving you ventilated seats with perforated leather.
3xo dead peadel bhi nahi deta. If you are above 6 feet in height and your feet is broad you will also find difficulty in differentiating between brake and accelerator pedal.
Buy what suits you both are good cars. Jo aapko pasand hai wo lelo
I am sorry to say that this comparison is a bit biased in favor of Sonet..... XUV3XO is a much better vehicle in every aspect apart from fit & finish....
Yeah I Felt That Too... It's Biased...
Yeah I Felt That Too, It's Biased...
I too felt that way. Sonet feels like belonging to segment of Punch as in pursuit of giving humongous boot space it compromises on inner seating space. I think apart from Bose sound system and ventilated seats all other features of XUV 3XO are better and carry a feel good factor.
Plus he forgot to mention how VFM XUV 3XO's AX5 and AX5L variants are compared to GTX plus, X line variants of Sonet.
@@AmitGupta-ki6gbSonet has internationally existed way before punch and Mahindra existed. Punch doesn't offer you a turbo engine neither does it offer any AT, DCT variants.
What most of you are missing on is aftersales and long term ownership experience, no doubt 3xo is a great car but practically you don't buy a car to drive 5000 kms only.
@@venkateshanantharaman6773 bro Mahindra is now not just competing these brands in India but many other countries as well. My friends have XUV500 which is like 5 to 6 years old and faces no after sales service issues with Mahindra.
Plus the rural presence of Mahindra is far better than even Hyundai or Kia. Within next 5 to 10 years Mahindra and Tata will not just compete but excel when EVs will come into picture.
With regards to Punch if you see Sonet and Venue sales majorly attributes to NA 1.2l engine and not the Diesel or turbo petrol Just as Fronx. No matter what people stick to but buyers of Nexon and XUV 3XO are increasing day by day.
You missed one major parameter- Safety and GNCAP ratings
Bcoz ye gov bik gayi hai Yaad hai dialogue
1. Both don't have one 3xo is not tested, we are speaking solely on XUV 300 GNCAP scores
2. Sonet is based on venue platform. It had scored 4 stars in GNCAP 2018-19.
3. Learn driving, it will make your cars more safe. Have seen people keep legs on steering wheel in the name of ADAS etc.
4. If you want safety first, buy an army tank. You don't deserve cars to be safe
@@venkateshanantharaman6773Kia cars made for overseas consumers will have 4 or 5 stars. But for India they made zero star cars
@@venkateshanantharaman6773 All Hyundai and Kia cars sold in india (except the imported ones like Tucson and Carnival) have a maximum of 3 stars. Hyundai and Kia stink on safety.
I would go for XUV 300 because of better performance and drive feel. We purchase car to drive and every time we drive it should put smile on our face
which gear did you opt for in the 3xo? was it manual or automatic? and if it was automatic was it dct?
Sonet with ventilated seats is a boon in summers. Paddle shifters makes.overtaking easy on highways which is missing on XUV 3XO. ADAS as a feature is still evolving with Indian roads and traffic maturing so would not rush to rate. Sunroofs in general are good only for pleasant weather which is a rarity in North India. Drive responsibly and you don't need a tank like build structure with extra weight.
When it comes to build quality which is one of the crucial factors, 3X0 is one step ahead!
not just one step, many steps ahead. Plus XUV 3XO got a adaptive suspension. It remains soft at slow speeds but as you cross 80 KMPH it starts stiffening up giving good drivability.
Bring a comparison between lower variants of Sonet Htk+ and XUV 3xO Ax5.
As it will help middle class buyers. These variants have almost all practical features and it clicks all check boxes.
I think you will surely bring this most awaited comparison.
Pricing comparison should be for base models and not top models!
Mostly talked about in India now, Safety of the car. Missed it.
Also there should be some proof shown for these tests just for the transparency of the test.
@CarWale it's surprising that a responsible brand like you doesn't include SAFTY in its comparison. 3XO is a 5 star rated and KIA doesn't even dare to send cars for testing now
Why compare only the AX7 L AT against the Sonet X line. You can compare AX5 L AT against the Sonet X line and the AX5 will win on the all the points that AX7 wins on and it will win on the price front also.
That's what I was thinking too. This December I am going to buy AX5L petrol automatic variant of XUV 3XO.
@@AmitGupta-ki6gbCongrats in advance. I have booked the same variant. Hope to get it in the next 2-3 months.
@@durgasharankrishnamurthy4525 I will book in December this year. Hopefully they will give in 2 to 3 months for me as well.
I already booked AX7L petrol Manual and eagerly waiting for my first car, kab tak umeed karoon 😊
@@Zer0_0_0 3 to 4 months.
I think the AX5 and AX5L variant of XUV 3XO is much better compared to Sonet's HTK and HTX variant. that variant of XUV 3XO offers better features in affordable package but when it comes to AX7 and AX7L variants of XUV 3XO then Sonet's GTX plus and X Line are better value for money.
If you need a proper diesel automatic then Sonet remains your only choice as no other company offers a proper diesel automatic.
My pick XUV 3XO AX5L for its over all package.
@CarWale : Suggest when doing binary comparison like this, it's good to take 2 models of the same price point like a real person buying budget of 10L or 15L ex-showroom, compare the variants in the same price band within a max. 25K difference and compare what they offer against each other and better value proposition. 1L is a huge gap to compare.
Another way is you can do base model and top model comparison instead of just doing the top spec as majority will not buy top spec usually. Base and mid variants sell more.
Thank you for your suggestions. We will keep those in mind for the next comparison test.
Most of the people who think 3xo is better, they compare solely on the NCAP rating... They deserve military vehicle
😂😂 people don't think.. in reality it's a better car in subcompact suv.
I think u should compare AX5 and HTX automatic then only it will be true comparison
Please tell me which SUV vehicle is best for family and mileage
Both are extremely close on mileage. XUV3XO has more space for 4/5 people.
Kindly suggest to me which one to pick between Sonet htk+ imt and XUV 3xO Ax5??
Both are very different in terms of powertrain. Do you want an iMT or a proper automatic?
What will be your recommendation if I have to go with proper automatic??
Sonet Or 3xO??
Vikranth sir ❤ gem of reviewer
I think platform wise - Sonet is basically i10 spruced up. 3XO is a spruced up Sangyong platform. Where sonet would really score high is with diesel auto box combo.. same combo comes is Alcazar and Creta. With low weight it’s an absolute banger. Mahindra’s diesel with AMT may not be as sorted as Sonet diesel with autobox. But the bottom line is safety ..Mahindra rules this area For sure.
Dude sonet is not i10 platform. Exter is i10 platform .please do your research and stop commenting like a chapri. Sonet has existed in various forms in the international market: stonic was the first sonet that came into play in international markets.
Please do your research. Yes 3xo is a great car no doubt but go visit a Kia showroom and Mahindra showroom and even service centres for that matter. 2 min me sach pata chal jayega
@@venkateshanantharaman6773 there is a platform called Hyndai K1 platform ..i10 , Sonet, Santo and venue are based on that..fyi
@@mayurnayudu3376 k1 and k2 platforms are different sir. K1 is for A segment K2 is for B and C segment..K2 is used in i20, venue, creta alcazar etc. it's a very tried and tested platform
Sonet is based on the K2 platform. You can't equate i10 and sonet just because K is common in them 😂😂
What about diesel comparision. Which is your pick
Diesel for sure Sonet is a better pick. Also its the only car with a proper automatic in Diesel.
What about refinement and NVH?
I think in those fronts Sonet would be a better pick.
Sir 3xo seat is more comfortable than sonet 💯😊😊
Why not also bring in a comparison of lower variants which will help middle class buyers. HTK plus of KIA and AX5 of 3XO. AX5 feels far more spacious and comfortable. Also the adjustable back headrest in Mahindra gives it a much better comfort than the fixed headrests of Sonet. Overall KIA is more affordable and gives almost all the features. Look wise also KIA is great but does feel a little underpower. 3 people sitting at the back of Mahindra will feel more comfortable than 3 at back of Sonet.
Hyundai and Kia started marking cars together in early 2000s. In Malaysia Hyundai cars are to be considered more reliable than Kia and maintenance is high for Kia after 1 lakh KMs. I don't know reliability of Mahindra vehicles.
3xo 🔥
I liked the sonet on the outside and the quality is also good inside...but when I took it for a test drive I found the space inside a little less dont know why..
Its bcoz of the boot space it tries to deliver.
You are right. Space inside the Sonet is less compared to the XUX 3XO.
You haven't taken into account one of the most important factor : Safety...... Sonet doesn't stand a chance.....
Sonet has not been tested in GNCAP. It's based on Venue platform which had scored 4 star in NCAP. It's not right to say sonet has no safety. 3xo is more safer for sure if it scores 5 stars.
Are you Indian or not Indian IND me sab ko English nhi ati 😅😂
Drive quality sonet naah!! Sonet is like a beautiful lady with a charming face..
Also XUV 3XO will be much sturdier and safer than kia's offering Add another point to the xuv's scoreboard 🙂
how you did milage test
We drive 80kms in the city and 80kms on the highway. Both are predefined routes that we use for every car that we test for mileage. The test is done by the same driver and we make sure that the traffic density is similar, too.
@@CarWale and the speed
u didn’t compare the build quality XUV is good at NCAP safety rating
How sonet will get point here
1.0 turbo vs 1.2 it’s turbo are equal…?
We are comparing the most advanced and the most powerful petrol engine available in the Sonet and the XUV3XO. Hence 1.0-litre turbo vs 1.2-litre TGDI.
Boot space ?
Sonet undoubtedly
Sonet has more boot space than the XUV 3XO.
If ADAS and long highway driving...3XO else IF CITY SONET for better ride handling and comfort
What about safety,you talk only about features 😂
I don't know how sonnet comes here for comparison
No points or comments on safety 😮
Always be an INDIAN
Kia sonnet ka cabin dekho kitna chhota hai.. SUV hoke bhi sirf 4 log fit ho sakte hai gaadi mein
Safety and ADAS 2 are missing
Also XUV 3XO gives better seating space.
White elephant in the room
1. 3xo deliveries
2. Mahindra's aftersales
Vehicle kharidke journey end nahi hoti
What is with Mahindra aftersales. I am confused between these two and in favot for 3XO, majorly because of more packed features. But Sonet is a safer bet. Mahindra has not been successful in this segment.
@@wreckball2315 Yes, XUV 3xo is essentially rebadged and upgraded xuv300. But Mahindra is ultra poor in managing sales and after sales.
Also, the reason they are in rush to make sales is because of the potential diesel ban. They have heavily invested in diesels, so they just want to sell sell in the next 4 years but they will botch up in deliveries with 6 months to 2 years waiting period atleast.
@@wreckball2315sonet is a safer bet. I decided to cancel 3xo and get the sonet
inko pata hai ki sonet 3xo ke samne kahi nahi tikti. phir bhi comare kar rahe hai
Sonet is for kids
3x0 is for matured
Bought the Sonet, never regretted about not getting 3XO, the ADAS of the car was so noisy it made me hate the car though it had a few good, Really good perks up its sleeve. And the 3XO looked super ugly. I really don't care about safety though. Its overrated, gains are marginal. And most of them yapping about Sonet, has never driven one. Kudos to those who did drive both, but half the people did not get a feel of the car
This comparison sounds biased & in favour of Sonet.
Correct..... Sonet & Venue are already not too successful products from Kia & Hyundai...
Sonet se acchi punch😂😂
Kya sonet banaya re,..😂😂
Your video mostly feels biased towards sonet
Anyone with functioning brain will realize how cramped Sonet and Nexon are compared to 3XO
Mahindra fans crying every where😅
Lol Mahindra inko futi kavdi bhi nahi dega. Delivery ke naam pe 2-3 saal waiting period. 😂😂
its a completely biased review ...
what a faltu review. abe build quality ka kahi mantion nahi hai
Paise review. Completely biasdd
Who is this old guy?
Always kia sonet....it have dct and ventilated seat with brown interior ...
not better than bmw x1
Sonet is good
