The Mahindra XUV700 and the MG Hector are two of the greatest SUVs you can now purchase in India, making it harder to decide between them because of their similar prices. Even more confusingly, each vehicle employs quite dissimilar strategies to carry out the same tasks.
MG Motor's unveiling of the Hector in India
effectively revolutionized the car industry with a vast range of innovative
features that rivaled the most recent cell phones. The new Mahindra XUV700, the
more recent SUV in this group, is equally as jam-packed with goodies as the MG cars.
These SUVs will be compared based on five
major criteria: design, features, powertrain, and price.
Design
The new Mahindra XUV700 appears more stylish
and contemporary. The addition of flush door knobs, which also provide a hint
of premiums and refinement, further emphasizes this impression of
sophistication.
The new Mahindra XUV700 appears more upscale than the Hector, which is
the opposite. However, the 6- or 7-seater Hector has a somewhat different
appearance than the 5-seater Hector and resembles the new Mahindra XUV700 in
terms of luxury and sophistication.
Features
Regarding features, SUVs are recognized for
the abundance of available standard amenities, including the MG cars.
Both of these SUVs are equipped with amenities
like a 360-degree surround-view camera, a sizable infotainment system with
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, powered ORVM powered seats, steering-mounted
audio controls, a premium music system, a tilt and telescoping steering wheel,
a cooled glove box, a panoramic sunroof, LED headlights, and many more.
The Hector maintains its position strongly
despite being an older SUV and delivering comparable amenities.
Powertrain
Three distinct engine choices are available
for the Hector. The diesel engine is a 2.0-liter turbocharged unit that
generates 350 Nm of torque at 1,750 rpm and 170 bhp at 3,750 rpm. There is just
a 6-speed manual transmission available with this engine.
Lastly, a hybrid engine is also available for
Hector. The layout of this powerplant is the same as the previous powertrain's,
but the starter motor has been swapped out for a belt-type starting generator
to provide start/stop functionality. The only available gearbox is a 6-speed
manual transmission. Compare cars
in India before buying any of the two.
On the other hand, the Mahindra XUV700 offers
a choice of one petrol engine, two diesel engines, and either a 6-speed manual
transmission or a 6-speed automatic transmission as a gearbox choice.
Price
The basic petrol model with the manual gearbox
of the MG Hector price is
Rs 14.73 lakh (ex-showroom, India), while the base diesel variant costs Rs
19.06 lakh (both prices ex-showroom, India).
Prices for the base edition of the Mahindra
XUV700 with a petrol engine and manual gearbox start at Rs. 13.45 lakh,
demonstrating that Mahindra has yet again increased the pricing for its wildly
popular SUV (ex-showroom, India).
