After watching this video I am happy and convinced on the decision I made to buy Kia carens. For me comfort and mileage were my first priority and I can confirm that Kia carens satisfied me in both these aspects. I switched from Skoda to Kia last year and I am completely happy for choosing Kia Carens. Below are some of the benefits/advantages I have experienced from Kia Carens in my last 1 year usage. I have drove exactly 25,000 km in 1 year 2 months. 1. Good space. Easily can accommodate 5 adults and 3 kids 2. Very comfortable ride 3. Excellence mileage. I get 16 in the city and more than 20 on highways 4. Very good AC 5. Good after sales service. 100x better compared to Skoda 6. Good boot space compared to other 7 seaters 7. Good headlights. Very powerful and definitely better than my previous car 8. Good brakes. Had experienced few times. 9. Parking assistance with sensors. 10. Sunroof which my kid enjoys the most 11. Cruise control which is extremely useful on highways 12. Decent music system. Initially not very impressed but now adopted to it and enjoying 13. Better ingress and egress 14. Ventilated seat which is really useful in this hot summer 15. One of the best diesel engines in the market now. Same smoothness as petrol engine.Haven’t experienced any difficulties with full load. Have done long drives on hills with 6 adults, 2 kids and full luggage for 5 days vacation. It was very comfortable and never faced any issues in terms of power. Downside. 1. Bad suspension. 2. Body roll 3. Not very useful wireless charging 4. No wireless carplay or Android auto 5. Not impressive build quality. Even my 6 yr old kid is able to open the door easily whereas in my skoda even adults used to struggle to open as it was too heavy 6. No 360 degree camera
Background- own a hycross and had booked (now cancelled) XUV700 as well My $ 0.02: 1. XUV700- while diesel is the most pragmatic option, but with an impeding migration towards cleaner fuel, seems a risky proposition- petrol while a hoot to drive is definitely not pocket friendly given the single digit mileage. Plus, still a bit hesitant in putting 30 lacs on a mahindra. Last, but not the least, space is still on the lower side especially in the boot given that it’s a 7 seater Safari- fit and finish issues, no petrol and cumbersome to drive Hycross- compromise on finish, quality of plastics for sure- but in return what we get is fantastic and usable space, quiet cabin, better fuel economy, rock solid Toyota reliability and a peaceful 15 years stint with no prospective emission related issues- and that’s what TODAY’s UPPER MIDDLE CLASS WANTS! hence chose the hycross and loving every bit of it! All round Practicality triumphs drivability for a 40 year old me 😄
Don't know about the present day cars. But the OG Innova is in a different league. My father bought it in 2011, uses it daily and has an odometer reading of 3.25 lakhs. Still no body rattles, no engine issues. Even now use it for long road trips without any issue, and might be controversial with the craze for features, it has the necessary features needed. Really a great product, something my father is still not willing to part.
Scorpio N shoudl have been taken too! On a cheaper side, XL6/ertiga could also have been taken in my POV. A great 1 hr vid! Watched it straight and it was a delight to watch!
No man bcus scorpio,meridian,gloster,fortuner is another segment....ertiga is just a cheap people mover but ur suggession xl6 is ok.but new xl6 replacement is comming based on vitara at 18 lkh segment so now xl6 wont make sense
Brilliant comparison but you should have included Hector Plus. I do have the Alcazar 2.0 petrol auto though not meant for enthusiastic people it does it’s job. I do agree with squeaky noises here and there but features are on par and is comfortable for city rides. For reliability and long term - Innova For VFM - Carens For sheer power - XUV700 For presence - Safari
This is 'THE Best Video' on UA-cam for 7-seater buyer target audience. Exceptional presentation, everything is on point. Thanks a lot. Probably first time I felt that a 1-hour is not too long. I can imagine the original video footage would've been at least 10-11 hours, kudos to the editor too :)
Excellent comparison. I think Kia has made the Carens an excellent car. Value for money, loaded with features and spacious. Hycross is desirable but way too expensive. Might get a Carnival at Hycross price
A 7 seater should be able to accommodate 7 people comfortably. XUV700, Safari and Alcazar have cramped 3rd rows in terms of leg room and thigh support. Hycross has enough leg room in the 3rd-row but thigh support is less. Thigh support in the 3rd row is best in the Carens and its 3rd row leg room is adequate too. As an affordable, proper 7-seater for adults, Carens wins the competition.
Safari looks beautiful and symmetric among them and also has superb road presence (looks like an Anaconda coming on us fro front). It's the overall more practical car.
Xuv 700 has more or less the same road presence and better engine and power delivery with comfort and handling. How does that sum up ur theory on safari🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡
XUV 700 it is for me... That's cz of the features and apoeal it price at a sweet piece. It actually introduced ADAS in the mainstream market and beats competition in its segment
XUV and Safari are all good but for 5lac cheap i think Alcazar is extremely under rated. It is the smoothest and nice balance of suspension over indian everyday roads. The diesel engine is well extremely smooth and brisk, it cruzes happily and it does not compramise on space. Safari and xuv are all macho but practically Alcazar is much sorted, economical and practicle!
Everyone has their own taste ... depends on what you are looking for. After i drove XUV700 I CHOSE IT because the dieawl 2.2 engine is peppy, very easy to drive, had. Loads of features. First and second row is very spacious. 3rd row for kids only. I have driven 10k now and driven in city and highways. Absolutely great machine. Its a very decent product by an Indian car maker. Diesel engine is very smooth. I get 10 to 11 in city and around 13 to 16 in highway depending on how i drive. I haven't faced any issues in the car. I have done 2nd service and i do it in ampl Guindy Chennai. Customer service is also good. Only issue i have is did not get the 2nd key yet. Mostly positive experience with XUV 700 and i love it.
Yes, engine performance I did enjoy, but the deal breaker was that steering, it is so light on the highways that I cannot fathom. I used to own elite i20 and that Car had the same problem not that I'm comparing i20 to XUV700 😅 not a match but the problems with the steering is the same, too light. But then I test drove Safari and the problems of safari people have was an advantage to me, I like heavy steering, just a personal thing. And I did not find constant adjustment part applied to the test car I drove. The test car I drove, was absolutely planted and did not need a single input to steering once it was in the lanes, I just used two fingers to keep steering straight and that was it no further input required. In fact, I think the car they got might've had some problem because the car I test drove didn't have any of the issues aforementioned. Call the Safari was cheaper, put out more mileage compare diesel to diesel and suspensions our hands down the best on tata (low speed stiffness is a compromise to high speed stability)
Every time I hear Shirish speaking, it’s a joy! It’s like a song sung blue! Another amazing content, and it’s great to see that the Mahindras remain unbeatable
every car is good but carens is slightly affordable too. Gone are the days when Innova was the king of its segment. carens became the first 7 seater to displace Innova. now each mpv has turned into SUVish MPV, offering space like MPV and high ground clearance and seating like SUV.
great video by Evo india just loved it , I would totally agree with the verdict made by sirish sir , if choosing between the carens and alcazar carens would be a better pick and between the 700 and the safari it depends upon the whether you need more features or better engines and comfort and the hycross in the Vx (o) variant is the best buy for those looking for a proper 8 seater .
Innova Hycross Looks Cool And Offer Too Many Features Which Are Actually Quiet Useful But Still Cant Compete With Innova Crysta In Terms Of Practicality. The Comfort In Crysta Is Good. And The Only 7 Seater Which Can Accommodate 7 People Comfortably(3rd Row Is Really Comfortable Whether Its About Legroom, Headroom or Under-tight Support).
Even a tractor has a road presence and these two cars are just bloated hatchbacks with low quality assembled spare parts like Fiat engine & Hyundai gearbox. Toyota is way ahead of game.
Proud owner of Hyundai Alcazar 1.5 Turbo Petrol DCT. Good road presence . (Actually feel like driving a big car and not a truck.) Enough power required for a SUV . Just perfect . Never found any issue with power when accending hills with full load. Engine responds well as per demand Fuel consumption better than other SUVs ( petrol) Third row is not that comfortable but (if middle row is adjusted it can be used comfortably.) Other SUVs compromise on boot space to provide more leg room for third row. For Alcazar there is ample space for boot . Better than other SUVs. More premium interiors than others. Seats are not comfortable in Alcazar Kia carens is the only car which is slightly better Alcazar . In terms of space. Didn't go for it since it has less service centres and less resale value.
Alcazar is castle on roads so it not a SUV nor MPV.Just kidding. I own one and its good ,good handling , mileage,drivability Tested with lot of luggage as well as full house + luggage never felt underpowered. And my next option would be Hycross with a better interior.
its amazing how the XUV700 here in Australia was rated as an average decent SUV while in India its regarded as one of the best SUVs ever. Difference in Standards and affordability I guess.
That's cz of the features and apoeal it price at a sweet piece. It actually introduced ADAS in the mainstream market and beats competition in its segment
Your Videos are Excellent! Next Time, my request is to Make Video btw the following cars:- 1) Suzuki Grand Vitara 2) Hyundai Creta 3) Škoda Kushaq 4) BMW X1 5) Audi Q3 6) Toyota Hyryder 7) Volkswagen Taigun 8) Kia Seltos 9) Mahindra XUV300 10) Tata Nexon Also, XUV700 is a Very Good Looking Car! Love that!
This video actually help me cement my decision on buying Safari. Honestly, this is personal opinion, but I have found out after driving both XUV 700 and safari that Tata's hydraulic steering is much better on highway, I can do some hard work in city but a floating steering on a highway run it's very very problematic for me. And also Xuv 700 is actually a 5 adult seater, 7seater is just a gimmick on XUV. and then there is milage, which is much better on safari, it will put out 18km/L @100kmph cruise control on highway runs except Toyota. Nobody comes close to it. and the worst part is 5 seater to 7 seater jump on xuv 700 costs way more compared to Safari where its just 1lakh. That is why I booked Safari Adventure White edition(white car with blacked out everything). well, that was in my opinion.
Took test drive of Safari, XUV and Hycross, then went to Carens, not for pricing, but XUV & safari no boot space, and pretty hard to drive in city like Bengaluru, Hycross definitely a big car but it's a big headache to park, then finally Carens, boot space good, easy to drive, easy to maneuver in tight traffic situation and easy to turn on unplanned Bengaluru U turns. Bought Petrol DCT Prestige plus
Service and maintenance costs should also be added to the on road price and then the overall running costs be calculated to come to the actual figure of maintenance. Resale value over the same period and that will determine which is the best vehicle overall.
Actually i think the previous Innova was more of a suv despite the design because it was body on frame and RWD. The modern one is just a lifted station wagon.
I own Xuv 700 Ax7 variant Automatic. I have to say that I’m more than satisfied with the car. It has everything I ask for! 1. More than enough performance for our roads makes overtakes, especially on single lane roads effortless 2. Brilliant ride quality makes passengers more comfortable on longer journeys 3. Electric steering makes you feel like you are driving a hatchback on cities 4. Loaded with features. Those twin screen looks more upmarket and actually makes the car look a segment above than it really is. On the downside, rear seat cannot be slided and there are few software niggles. That’s it. Otherwise the car is really worth your every penny.
No doubt from the list innova is the best. Comfort,space, features, design, Toyota cars are very reliable. I think so innova will always remain undefeatable. The name toyota fells very powerful and trusted.. I dont think so safari carnes xuv can beat the innova
Evos are doing great, i love most compared to other channels specially the enthusiasm shirish have love the way explain love your all content keep it up team 👍🏻💪 evo comeon make a evolution of automobile in India
@@evoIndiai knew it might be out of topic.. but as person who drove and had all those buddies in my circle.. HEXA is out of park shot from TATA.. and my personal vehicle.. those 19 inch alloys.. 2.2ton massiveness.. rear wheel splendor.. 400nm torque.. not just on paper.. but on ride too... least you could have mentioned at some point
Challenge done and dusted couple of years back. I have stopped seeing phones as soon as i get up instead i drink couple of cups of water as soon as i get up , look at the sky for few minutes and then stretch my body readying myself for workout. Challenge for you now Aakanksha. Try to put your phone on flight mode while sleeping or keep your phones away atleast 3 meters so that you don’t get disturbed by those notifications. You will see better results and you will thank me later.
Beautiful, well thought out comparison. However, SCORPIO N should have been included which would have given this collation an altogether different dimension.
I would totally rely on Toyota for its brand value and reliability. What most of the people are missing while comparing these cars is - RESALE VALUE. Buying a Toyota and selling it after a lakh kms driven would always give you better price then these all.
This would have been a super perfect video if Scorpio N was also included in the comparison..as practically people are going for it after checking out these options..
Awesome vlog. But pls review all of this again with all 6 seats loaded. Dynamics of car with full load is important.... How the rear overhanged ride with full load and so on....
@@evoIndia Do not agree to it as everyone would have atleast got an idea how this body-on-ladder frame vehicle is as good as the monocoque vehicles in this test. People around the world are comparing it the Pajero Sport, Fortuner and even a second hand Prado.
Honestly said Xuv 700 Is much better than these. Luxurious interior, better suspension best in the segment Ride handling Safty, And a Powerful😎💪👍 engine That's The Real Suv Mahindra Xuv 700👑
@@amogus9440 are bhai mere tumhare pass safari hai matlab better hai na 😄..yaha youtubers bhi batate ki xuv ki better hai ride and handling... safari ke steering torque stear ki problem hai sabhi safari me maine ek ladakh trip karli hai safari se no doubt car achi hai lekin xuv chalate time ek level upar lagta hai
Xuv700. There’s no need to compare anything. Others can’t stand toe to toe in competition. Tata should take lessons on adding some luxury and refinement from xuv and provide proper facelifts asap.
All said and done, which one of these would you put your money on?
I have already put it on Hycross even before seeing the video 😃

In nutshell
This is 'THE Best Video' on UA-cam for 7-seater buyer target audience. Exceptional presentation, everything is on point. Thanks a lot. Probably first time I felt that a 1-hour is not too long. I can imagine the original video footage would've been at least 10-11 hours, kudos to the editor too :)
The way Shirish sir present his view on any automobile is just above top notch.
Aye, thank you!
Excellent comparison. I think Kia has made the Carens an excellent car. Value for money, loaded with features and spacious. Hycross is desirable but way too expensive. Might get a Carnival at Hycross price
The Carnival is currently not on sale, and the new one could be more expensive.

Those surely would've made it a more better inside!
XUV and Safari are all good but for 5lac cheap i think Alcazar is extremely under rated. It is the smoothest and nice balance of suspension over indian everyday roads. The diesel engine is well extremely smooth and brisk, it cruzes happily and it does not compramise on space.

An INNOVA is an INNOVA, is an INNOVA, is an INNOVA🤩
Service and maintenance costs should also be added to the on road price and then the overall running costs be calculated to come to the actual figure of maintenance.
Resale value over the same period and that will determine which is the best vehicle overall.
Excellent 👌 Review 😊 Flow of Presentation awesome 👌👌 Conclusion Part is Cleverly Done😊
Thanks. Do give it a like and share it with fellow enthusiasts
Actually i think the previous Innova was more of a suv despite the design because it was body on frame and RWD. The modern one is just a lifted station wagon.
A Lifted station wagon or an MPV?
Though, Toyota calls it an SUV.
XUV N SAFARI ARE HEAD TURNER FOR SURE!! great video, very detailed analysis, must needed comparison
It's been long time I saw a review worth appreciating . The first video I am seeing in this channel .
One advantage of Safari hydraulic steering is that it won't break on bad roads like those electric powered steerings.
Nothing breaks so easily these days if looked after well. Gone are the days when things used to be fragile.
thanks for explanation evo
Sirish is very energetic and enthusiastic person 👏👏 loved his presentation
Good review, guys! After a long time.
I like the way he talks about comfort, good driving in Toyota and features features design in tata.
I own Xuv 700 Ax7 variant Automatic. I have to say that I’m more than satisfied with the car. It has everything I ask for!
1. More than enough performance for our roads makes overtakes, especially on single lane roads effortless
2. Brilliant ride quality makes passengers more comfortable on longer journeys
3. Electric steering makes you feel like you are driving a hatchback on cities
4. Loaded with features. Those twin screen looks more upmarket and actually makes the car look a segment above than it really is.
On the downside, rear seat cannot be slided and there are few software niggles. That’s it. Otherwise the car is really worth your every penny.
Do you own a petrol or a diesel?
Hey, thanks for sharing your thoughts, Vijay!
I swearrr what a mega comparison freaking 1hr vid😂
Haha! In-depth 😉
bought alcazar one week ago
And I am really satisfy to buy this car ❤️
Mileage 18 average, diesel at
Great work shirish! One can actually test drive the vehicle watching the screen and shirish explaining!🍻
I put my money on safari!
This is what high effort content looks like. Excellent 🎉
No car can beat the innova in 7 seater category. It's the undisputed king.
No doubt from the list innova is the best. Comfort,space, features, design, Toyota cars are very reliable. I think so innova will always remain undefeatable. The name toyota fells very powerful and trusted.. I dont think so safari carnes xuv can beat the innova

We would love to hear your ownership experience!
When it comes to reliability no one can beat Toyota 🔥 ⚡ .
What a mega comparison ! A Hour long video unexpexted.
We hope you loved this indepth comparision!
Ventilated seats on 2nd row in safari is awesome. 😮
Would love to see a review on the Carens IMT diesel
Hycross ₹35 lakh, XUV & Safari ₹30 lakh, Scorpio ₹25 lakh, Alcazar ₹23 lakh, Carens ₹22 lakh final roundabout price for their top models.
Exactly, the Carens is great value if the budget is tight
Carens for 22 lakhss 😮
Carens for 22 lakhss 😮
@@evoIndia22L is not a tight budget 😄
Evos are doing great, i love most compared to other channels specially the enthusiasm shirish have love the way explain love your all content keep it up team 👍🏻💪 evo comeon make a evolution of automobile in India
Excellent comparison, worth spending 1 Hour.
Hycross❤
Exactly the comparison what i wanted. Great work friends ❤❤ love for cars.
Thanks abhiram!
@@evoIndiai knew it might be out of topic.. but as person who drove and had all those buddies in my circle.. HEXA is out of park shot from TATA.. and my personal vehicle.. those 19 inch alloys.. 2.2ton massiveness.. rear wheel splendor.. 400nm torque.. not just on paper.. but on ride too... least you could have mentioned at some point
Really well made comparison 👍
Challenge done and dusted couple of years back. I have stopped seeing phones as soon as i get up instead i drink couple of cups of water as soon as i get up , look at the sky for few minutes and then stretch my body readying myself for workout.
Challenge for you now Aakanksha. Try to put your phone on flight mode while sleeping or keep your phones away atleast 3 meters so that you don’t get disturbed by those notifications. You will see better results and you will thank me later.
Carens❤
Beautiful, well thought out comparison. However, SCORPIO N should have been included which would have given this collation an altogether different dimension.
Maybe we can do something about that later.
They had done it with its competors fortuner endeavor...now nedd gloster and meridian added
I was shocked to hear XUV700 doesn't have seat ventilation... Alcazar and creta is based on i20 platform.
It sorely misses it.
does ac is not enough? why some people are crazy for seat ventilation
@@abhisek_misra for many people back sweats while driving especially in costal areas.....like kochi ....mumbai . ...chennai
you folks are producing content better than autocar. love it
Glad to hear you are loving the videos! Do hit the like and share buttons! More coming up
Proud owner xuv700
Best luxury with features in segment
Innova is over priced
Which variant have you got?
Ax7L diesel manual
how's it after an year?@@naitikagrawal649
Excellent video team evo.
Glad you enjoyed it
i appreciate the effort you guys put in…❤❤❤
Thanks evo team for the detailed comparison. Subscribed u r channel.
Aye, welcome onboard. Glad to have you here.
I would totally rely on Toyota for its brand value and reliability. What most of the people are missing while comparing these cars is - RESALE VALUE. Buying a Toyota and selling it after a lakh kms driven would always give you better price then these all.
Oh yes! The Innova does hold their value well.
700 ❤️🔥
Which colour, though?
This would have been a super perfect video if Scorpio N was also included in the comparison..as practically people are going for it after checking out these options..
That do you think makes the Scorpio N a better pick over these?
@@evoIndiaBetter off-road capability than any of the options here
Innova hycross is the one and only car if u can afford
Mujhe to sirf Harier Or Xuv700 dikh raha hai 🗿
Indian Brand ❤
Looks and performance no one beat xuv 700❤
Awesome vlog. But pls review all of this again with all 6 seats loaded. Dynamics of car with full load is important.... How the rear overhanged ride with full load and so on....
Thanks for the suggestion.
XUV hands down
What all do you like about it?
From past 15 years nobody beat Innova
XUV700 All the way
Which colour would your XUV be?
White
I felt you missed that you didn’t involve scorpion in this test
Scorpio 7 seater hai ? 😅
A slightly different league
@@evoIndia was alcazar not ???
@@tejashwibhaskarnope
@@evoIndia Do not agree to it as everyone would have atleast got an idea how this body-on-ladder frame vehicle is as good as the monocoque vehicles in this test. People around the world are comparing it the Pajero Sport, Fortuner and even a second hand Prado.
Honestly said Xuv 700 Is much better than these. Luxurious interior, better suspension best in the segment Ride handling Safty, And a Powerful😎💪👍 engine That's The Real Suv Mahindra Xuv 700👑
Ride handling of XUV 700 is definitely not the best But agreed
@@amogus9440segment best hai bhai mere Tum hi bata do konsi hai isse better
@@Rohanhjai Safari ka handling behtar he. Lekin ha dusre sabkuch me XUV 700 behtar he safari se
@@amogus9440 are bhai mere tumhare pass safari hai matlab better hai na 😄..yaha youtubers bhi batate ki xuv ki better hai ride and handling... safari ke steering torque stear ki problem hai sabhi safari me maine ek ladakh trip karli hai safari se no doubt car achi hai lekin xuv chalate time ek level upar lagta hai
Plus, you can't beat the safety rating.
XUV700 is THE BEST of all !! btw i’m a Kushaq owner 😁❤
Do you think the XUV is good upgrade from the Kushaq?
Alcazar is the best VFM car of the lot. Proud owner of 1.5 Petrol AT signature variant
Mileage broo?
We would love to hear your experience!
Except for ncap rating carens is a lot vfm. Same 1.5 turbo in carens with dct is cheaper than 1.5 turbo with manual by one lakh
I prefer the refinements of the Carens. A fiscally intelligent person will go for it.
Alcazar is the best value for money features loaded city friendly 7 seater SUV
Morris Garages Hector Plus, left the chat
Innova ofcourse
The Crysta or the HyCross?
Excellent review
Xuv700. There’s no need to compare anything. Others can’t stand toe to toe in competition. Tata should take lessons on adding some luxury and refinement from xuv and provide proper facelifts asap.
The trolley bag was kept vertically on the Safari and horizontally on the XUV.
