- čas přidán 30. 06. 2024
- Mahindra 3XO is determined to challenge the Tata Nexon’s domination in the Indian SUV segment. The Mahindra undercuts the Tata on pricing, offers more features including segment-first ADAS, has more space, is more powerful, and also claims better dynamics. But there’s the small matter of the Mahindra 3XO’s polarizing styling to first deal with.
We have lined up the diesel versions of the 3XO and Nexon to find out which wins the compact SUV comparison test.

Which styling do you prefer? Mahindra 3XO or Tata Nexon?
3xo for sure
Nexon
3XO , nice color and styling 👌
Nexon
Genuine Review Mr.Sirish. at the end and overall package & daily usage - Nexon make sense as it has required useful features in price bracket. VENTILATED SEATS, COMFORT, MUSIC SYSTEM, MILEAGE, STEERING.
When Sirish said, There should be just LXI,VXI and ZXI, I felt that.
Seriously. Things are so confusing these days
Remembering the variants and specs of each could make for a good exam of how well do you know the car? What do you think?
Magna, Sports, Asta
RXL, RXT, RXZ 😂
I strongly agree. Too much varients
19:02 take a bit of advice…. Never change steering rake during movement, that’s a disaster waiting to happen…..
Point noted. Was doing it only for the camera but you’re on point
If Diesel Gate of Volkswagen newer happened we would have had 50Kmpl Diesel Hydrids right now.
Sad of EV Cartel😢
Diesel and hybrid don't work together well. Plus hybrids are to reduce emissions and a diesel engine negates that.
So sad 😭😭😭😭😭
@@shahan484VW did have diesel hybrids and it worked
The oil cartel is much much powerful. So called EV cartel stands no chance infront of them.
@@shahan484It will work. If you put so much R&D we can bring diesel emissions. Look at Mazda for the example.
Despite having larger dimensions 3 X0 looks smaller than Nexon. I don’t know why! And it has a smaller boot. In all other respects it is a better car than Nexon.
It’s a visual trick. Boot is same.
Only thing lacking is ventilated seats in xuv
Yes boot is very small nexon is good. Steering feedback is really good and no feedback in 3x0
3XO is actually the chopped version of ssangyong tivoli for sub 4 meter tax relaxation and things
Low ground clearance, third class boot, low mileage, looks ugly interiors are ugly, Nexon has much better handeling, looks better, no ventilated seats in 3xo
I wish Ford had stayed back. For me the ecosport is still the benchmark in terms of handling, steering feedback and braking. It's composure is rock solid and unbeatable in spite of it being the oldest one among its competitors. Nice review BTW.
Very stiff bad rear suspension so not good comfort in seats
The 3XO moves the game on for dynamics now
@@sirishch nice to hear that. I need to test drive it.
Ford ecosport coming back in mid of 2025. Good competition for sure..
@@selvaanandtks there are a lot of rumours about Ford but I hope they truly come back.
Expected full fledged review of 3XO. Diesel manual and TGDI is beast
They surely are good engines but always drive safe and within speed limits.
Nexon has new base diesel variants now. But I still think the 3XO is the better package
1 point most people overlook is the DPF situation… Tata Nexon uses a DPF+ LNT versus Mahindra used DPF+Adblue dosing system…. I think Mahindra system is much more reliable over the life of the equipment with less hassle…. Technology wise Mahindra goes much forward….
Good point there on the emission equipment 👍🏼
Ya, it seems the 3xo has some system whereby u jus park the car somewhere safe, nd it will run the engine at a set pace to clean up. Dunno much abt it but the sales person replied when I asked him about sulphur problems. I won't be using the car that much but jus loved the performance of the diesel.
A Diesel is a Diesel is a Diesel is a Diesel
Is a diesel 💪🏻
is definitely a Diesel
Is a Diesel
It isn't a diesel unless it's a diesel
Yeah 🔥
Mahindra hired guys from Cartoon Network to design their front.
Now since I live in NCT, I can't watch diesel cars being better than petrol and not buy one. So, Bye! 👋🏽
Petrol comparo drops next week so stay tuned
We've got the petrol comparo coming next week! Stay tuned.
Well, I think it's sad you feel the design is that way, but Mahindra has some of the top designers in the Indian industry and well as somewhat globally... I guess you cannot satisfy everyone
Well it's the same guy who designed the tata Nexon for Tata.
Petrol engines are too silent. You can't feel connected with the car. There are no vibrations to feel connected with the car. How many times I have seen drivers pressing the throttle like crazy on speed brakers thinking the car will move, but in reality their car is in neutral or they are still holding the clutch enough to not let it move, but how would they realize their mistake when they can't even hear the engine from inside?
Thanks for making this comparo. Most automotive journos have stopped reviewing Diesels these days which is highly disappointing for a diesel lover like me.
We still like diesels 👍🏼
Who won the Giveaway contest you had 3 months ago? I don’t think you ever released the result?
I personally like the 3XO's design. It is far better than the previous one
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
3XO feels much better to drive than Nexon. More refined
True
I test drove both. Nexon feels good. What a comfort. Xuv 3x0 looks outdated even with this facelift
@@Hiran-lf2rt I think u didn't tried
@@madanmohan3541 haha then I guess you dint drive the nexon yet
@@madanmohan3541 read the team bhp review which talks about 3xo steering not so good in terms of driver feedback. It can be suitable for sedate drivers like you but not for enthusiastic
Nexon looks even more dashing right next to 3X0
Looks are a personal choice for everyone
@@evoIndia
That notch on the cladding is to maintain the boxy design aesthetic.. without that the circular cladding wouldn't go well with it... Look at the Thar's back rear cladding for example
3XO looks awesome to me...
Others are just shrinking the lights into a line or a dot with LED...
Headlights should be a proper component of the face afterall they are the eyes ... It makes the aesthetic 😊
Looks are a personal choice :)
i think mahindra calling it the baby xuv700 .. its design is suppose to be like a mini xuv700 .. also altroz has more interior space than nexon wonder if a raised version of altroz would make nexon obsolete .. not sure
Altroz is on a completely different platform to Nexon. I guess the next gen Nexon will get Altroz’s ALFA architecture. Who knows
😅
hello, can you please let me know what is that alfa architecture? Thanks @@sirishch
The front of 3xo looks like Batman eyes
From the front and rear nexon looks like a concept car but from the side it looks old because tata has facelifted nexon and the body structure is same and one more thing about tata cars is from inside the visibility is not really good specially from the rear seat because of their concept car like design.
Tata punch owner here really happy with my car.
You’re right. From the rear you do feel closed in due to the shallow window line
saw both of them today on the highway...3XO looks considerably bigger than nexon or sonnet.
Haha xuv 3x0 looks like a toy Infont of nexon.
@@Hiran-lf2rt nahh nexon looks shit
Great product from Mahindra and will definitely be a good competitor to Nexon and others in the segment. But Cutting down on practical features like ventilated seats might hurt sales as ventilated seats are a becoming a popular comfort feature especially for daily office goers!
Especially in 40 degree Indian heat
Thanks for Diesel variant comparison.... There is no one talk about ...
Welcome!
Hey sirish. Off topic but I want to hear your take on buying used 2014 Q3 quattro 2.0 diesel auto ?
Will it be problematic ?
how are the service costs for it if you have the info ?
I'm leaning towards it because the new car market has gone insane where 4m suv costs upto 15-17 lakhs.
If it is in good condition go for it. Nothing like those VAG 2-litre diesels
@@sirishch thank you sir 🙏🏽
Appreciate your reply.
I've few more queries.
How long does these diesels lasts for ?
There are 90k & 140k run engines in the market.
Will the S-tronic auto face the same problem as skodahvw group Infamous old DCT.
How is the driving dynamics of the 3xo when compared to the Taigun ? On par? I feel the VAG twins drive better. The 3xO and the 1 litre Taigun/Kushaq can be compared. I hope you do a comparison on them too.
hi sirish. how does the ride and handling of the 3XO compare against the Ford ecosport? would you rate this mahindra is the best drivers car in the sub 4m space? for someone looking to change/upgrade from a Ecosport diesel what would be your top recommendation? all diesel sonet vs 3xO vs Nexon?
3XO is the best drivers car in this segment. Fact.
Go for nexon for the ride comfort.
Bang on !!! AX7 gets amt in diesel and misses out on 360 deg camera and level 2 adas. AX7L gets both of them but comes in manual only. Why ??
To keep the top pricing in check
Which one is best for city and highway mileage...
Please do compare Creative and AX5
diesel engines torque is 300NM and not 320NM
Yes, it is 300Nm. 320Nm is a mistake on our part. Apologies.
Ive been waiting for Sirish's take on the 3XO
Hope you liked the video
We hope you enjoyed watching the video.
Absolutely
Which road is this?
Amt nexon petrol or Amt XUV 3xo petrol which one should be preferred?
Your very last sentence simply summarised the whole thing for me! I do have to look at the car parked in the garageway every morning, don’t I? 😄
Exactly!
Mahindra says it already got 50k+ bookings,
so if I book it now , when will I going to get the car, and what will be the price that that time !!!!
A very good review and comparo Sirish....and superb visually...
Thank you!
Thanks Ajay!
Hi
but why hyundai venue diesel is not considered for comparison?
Bro xuv 3xo vs sonet please
Thanks for the suggestion. We shall try to do that comparo soon.
11:04 ...is it still called the "transmission tunnel" or we should call it the "exhaust system tunnel" ...coz that is what actually it is...isnt it sirish?
True that
Would u say the 3xo handles as good as Lord Ecosports now ?
Where are reviews for 3XO Diesel Autoshift+?
0:00 still diesel are love
Please make video on sonet vs 3xo diesel comparison. Both are features full
Will do 👍🏼
I can happily see Nexon facelift any number of times on road which is pleasing to see.
Kudos to Pratap Bose for leaving Tata and ruining Mahindra lineup. Plz continue ruining it🤭😂😝
🤗Fortunately Tamo has Martin Uhlarik and team who are churning out eye pleasing designs.
Yes Tata motors design is the best.
100% true:
I would expect few more things in review.
1. Both should have been MT. And their 0-100 figures.
2. Fuel economy at 80 kmph in 6th gear on atleast 80 km expressway drive, tankful to tankful.
I am following Shirish since Overdrive Magazine days when office was in Wakadewadi Pune. Not missing single Video. Great to see a person who is having great knowledge about machines and attachment for machines. I am having Baleno with DDiS machine. I know the minus points of Maruti but loving Diesel and never get disappointed with Diesel machine. Shirish you need to discuss with all Manufacturer in India to keep Diesel alive. Thanks once again for sharing knowledge with India about machines.
Thanks for your kind words.
Why compare top variant xuv 3xo with second top variant nexon? Not a fair comparison.
We aren’t talking features…. Only how they drive
Can you please reduce the background music sound it will be much appreciated...
Thanks for the feedback.
Point noted 👍🏼
U guys are great ☺️
And thanks for listening from the audience side.....
The front fascia styling of the 3XO seems to be inspired from the dakar going Pajero Evolution/L200/Pajerosport...? Pajerosport was sold in India. You might still see some plying on the roads.
Spacious, future rich, powerful engine 3xo is winner
👍🏼
According to me xuv looks amazing from the back but from the front it looks - for the lack of a better word unfinished and desperate on the other hand nexon looks very mature in its design langauge - simple yet a perfect blend of futuristic and stylish.
I also like the rear design
Fun fact :- the most affordable GDI turbo petrol engine in india is offered with the Citroen C3 turbo....... By the way amazing review, you tell about the flaws or misses of a product really well which others miss out on, I wish you got the manual to drive, then we would have got to know the about tractibility of the engine.......
Spot on, the Citroen is the most affordable turbo petrol
Is there any difference in comfort on 3XO's 17 and 16 inch wheel option?
A difference would be there but we haven't driven the 16-inch wheel variant yet to compare the two.
The 3xo has started to grow on me❤
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Hi Sirish you are the one of the BEST reviewer in Auto news... thanks
Thank you for the kind words
Can you do a drag race video of xuv 3xo diesel manual ?
It’s on instagram. Check it out
Powerful petrol engine (130 BHP) not given in the lower variant of the 3XO.
The luxury version of the Mahindra looks good but it will be a big hassle to keep them clean.
Secondly the sunroof is really unnecessary edition to any car especially in India. We have filthy hot weather and dust all around us. It would be better if car manufacturers give the Indian customers Moonroof, it would much much better.
True that but Indian customer are demanding sun roof and that’s why manufacturers are giving that
TBH Indian buyers are very adaptable.
Plus If something different is there in their purchase , they will flaunt it to their peers. IMO
Also,
A moonroof is clearly better than a sunroof and much cheaper to produce.
Seats are smaller? Wha.??
Just take a screenshot of you sitting in the mahindra and then of you sitting in the tata. The camera angles are the same. You should easily be able to spot the smaller seats!
Dude, I’m sitting in those seats. I know what I’m talking about!
Ok
What about Nexon Diesel Manuals Clutch ?
Is it easy to drive in city.?
It is heavy
Thank you Shirish & Evo India team to bring this camparo very well given a respect for the diesel heads really appreciated.. hatsoff..🎉
Our pleasure!
Nexon diesel vs 3XO diesel which one ll give more mileage?
My ONLY concern is that white interiors..how do you guyz maintain it ?
That's a challenge.
Nexon is kinda Jack of all trades and Ace of none 😅.
That lethargic Petrol engine and Inconsistency in panels is still disappointing
I think 3XO looks better.. I'm kinda bored of tata's design now. From punch to safari every car looks same. On the other hand 3XO has a very unique agressive look. The front and the rear looks are really cool.
Fair point. Design is a very personal thing
I feel exactly the same and that's why didn't decide to buy the new nexon. All the cars are kind of same in terms of looks which makes it boring for me.
Couldn't agree more. This is like putting an end to designing, just increasing the dimensions and each car looks the same. The highly anticipated Curve is the same story.
Exactly!! Finally someone said it!
XUV700 and XUV3xO and their upcoming EVs have the same front
3XO's design looks like straight from school project 😂
plz do a test drive on diesel automatic
Did you put the Nexon in sports mode? 3xo engine is far ahead in terms of refinement while Nexon's diesel engine in sport mode sounds like a tractor 🚜
Tractor! That’s harsh….
Every diesel engine sounds like one and thats fine for diesel engine
At the time when every other car manufacturer is following the trend of splitting th headlight the 3xo headlight looks like how it is supposed to be. Every car looks same nowadays and Mahindra stands out by not following the same trend
Which has bettter refinement and reliability, 3xo looks better for sure
Brezza for sure ✔️
Didn't even asked about Brezza.Talking about the reliability, the LED DRLs are quite cheap & overall the interiors is the cheapest of all the cars in category..@@32_Spencer
Both the diesels here are very reliable. Refinement is also same but NVH is better on 3XO
Reliability is a long term ownership question
@@32_Spencer+1
Mx2 pro Diesel is the ultimate beast for the price 🔥🔥🔥
This video looks more like a movie! Top notch colour grading. Kudos
Thank you!
Why Mahindra is not using the same engine in Bolero Neo @evoIndia?
Nice comparison review Sirish & Team Evo. One suggestion please shave or trim before next shoot😅, we expect world class review from you.
🫣🫣🫣🫣
Didn’t know ur definition of world class was clean shaven. Wifey must be spending a fortune on that Brazilian wax
@@Dineashaatv Psychology fun fact - Most prominent figures in world are clean shaven or minimal facial hair as human Psychology deems them more trustworthy example Biden, Putin, Obama, Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Ambani etc. Thats why i said sirish world class 😎
@@Dineashaatv Quick medical human psychology fact - Most prominent world leaders are mostly clean shaven as human psychology deems them more trustworthy. Example Biden, putin, elon musk, bill gates etc. I consider @sirishch to be a world class auto journalist thats why I said that 🫶🏼
I test drove the 3xo diesel nd petrol automatic. Frankly, i had a smile planted on my face throughout the drive in the diesel amt. It was tooo much fun. There was a slight lag in shift times on amt as well as tc on petrol. I didn't find the amt to be inferior to the tc, maybe it was the 300nm torque. Also, the petrol was jus tooo plush, as if it had noise cancellation. Couldnt hear anything from the outside.
Is it only me who feels the Nexon clutch is very heavy?how come no one complain or point out?
3xo is also the same
0:21 is that drl sequential
Indian manufacturers are improving every time they launch 🫡🫡
Great review, no one explained this much details in suspension setup and dampers 🥳🥳
Thanks Faheem. Do give the video a like and subscribe to the channel. There's a lot more coming up.
Finally nexon diesel amt review on youtbe need a dedicated vidoe on amt how it drives and milage and everything detail review Evo India 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Glad you liked it
Please make a video on 3XO AX7L diesel version
If we can get our hands on it
We want Brezza vs Xuv3xo
Will do 👍🏼
Mahindra KUV 100 k8 2020
Diesel
1st owner
50000km
Price- 3.50l
Worth?
Here 15 years on diesel.
Or
Maruti Ignis delta 2018 petrol.
1st owner
70k km driven
Price- 3.30 lakh
Worth?
Sirish, If you could check time taken by both cars to reach 100 speed, we would then know actual capacity of engines ...
Some cosmetic things can be done on the 3xo to make it beautiful. A small black vinyl sticker which flows into the fender from the headlight unit. A ducktail/bill spoiler to the rear might also help. I'd prefer a rear door spare tyre carrier like on the Ecosport. I care less for the connected tail lights. A led light strip can be incorporated into the spare wheel cover.. just maybe..The Kerala boys will find a way.
Both cars are seems to be the best as per my point of view 🚙🚙
Fair enough 👍🏼
I hope the infotainment doesn't fail in 3XO is as quick as it's other cars
Now it's better Thank you for the review
What’s better?
I really, really like the way the 3XO drives. Mahindra’s engineers clearly are driving enthusiasts! But isn’t the Nexon so much nicer to look at?
Shirish nobody is interested in diesel 3xO , after seeing very low milage in turbo petrol mojority don't want to see any petrol review or drive .
Instead diesel makes more sense in 3xO .
Wr are eagerly waiting forn3xo vs brezaa petrol automatic review
Why is nobody speaking about the wrapped door trims instead of painted ones?
any 3x0 model without sunroof? i just dont want sunroof in 45 C here
Yes, The MX1 and MX2 variants of the 3XO are without a sunroof
3xO looks more Refreshing in this segment and looks a great deal
It is a great deal
Does the diesel varient have ADAS?
Yes. But no auto with ADAS
No. Sonet diesel has it Hence the name BADAS.
Is there a black interior 3XO white is cool but will be a task to maintain
Not right now. I’m sure it will come
It should come soon, hopefully!
Prebooked 3xo before launch.planning to cancel my booking only bcoz of white interior and lack of ventilated seats.mahendra should have at least added customisation for its customers.any idea whether a black interior will be available soon @sirishch
3X0 will surely be more intimidating than Nexon shooting beams at night in your rear view mirror. Although Nexon looks more elegant, the 3X0 is not too far, in my opinion.
Fair point 👍🏼
Excellent review 👏
I am from Delhi and always had a diesel, will always have a diesel till they make one.
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Heard like mahindra body parts gets rusted easily- any idea???
Nah…
A diesel is a diesel is a diesel is a diesel is a diesel 🔥
Is a diesel 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
The fog lamps look so out of place on the AX7/L variants, the lower AX5 and MX variants without the fog lamps look so much better and the design has grown on me
The looks and styling are a personal choice and everyone is entitled to have an opinion on it.
Mahindra ALL THE WAY
🙌
