Why do people hate this SUV?.. I think Indians love hating on all thing made by India...why??...but if this was made by Hyundai, Ford,Renault.. they'll say WOW!!!...I agree side view does look awkward...but its got its own style... I really like the front and back of this SUV...I think mahindra is trying their level best. At least encourage them. Come on!!!!
I hate the interior but the exterior I love very much
well said (y) . Indians against India . very sad
Abhay Ramkumar I agree with you. Indians hate Indian products then why r they Indian??
This isn't a SUV and tbh it's pretty below average as a hatch
The features are good, but the design is very bad.
i dont know why we indians don't appreciate indian manufacturers. look at the afferts gyz.
Karan kumar , yes, be Indian ,buy indian ,appreciate Indian.
Because their afferts are not good..
Karan kumar i respect indian technology
being new as a sales manager , ur channel helps me lot to gain technical details of cars
the way this man is speaking and giving info abt this vehicle is really nice....it is not making it boring like other reviews where they only give info abt vehicle...he is very happily saying everything and this makes watching this review without getting bored
Love the new intro video you guys have! \m/
The KUV looks like a very practical car with bold 'love it or hate it' styling. Air bag option on all variants? ABS with EBD standard on all variants? This from an Indian company? Makes me proud!
For this reason, the KUV100 gets my vote. Go Mahindra!
Great work Kartik. Big fan of your work.
what is wheel size used on this vehicle. Wheels look small on this vehicle ?
Its always a real treat to watch all your reviews. Your simplicity and point to point discussions about the vehicles make your channel unique, may it be 2 or 4 wheelers. Keep up the good work Kartikeya Sir. Cheers !!
Amazing, wonderful, Robust & muscular KUV 100. Had test drive in mysore and immediately booked it without second thoughts.
Hatts off to M&M, please keep up the delivery commitments.
Mysore
in what variants does that third seat includes ?
This is Parag and my passion is to drive and review different cars.
Last week, i have driven Mahindra KUV and my reviews are as follow..
This is best option available around 5-6 lacks. Those who dislike this, Just take test drive and understand new approach from Mahindra..
Pros
1. SUV kinda driving position
2. 6 people can seat ( this is big + in India for middle class)
3. Muscular design ( way better than Wagon R boxy design which is popular in India)
4. Good Leg and head room
5. Sufficient power and milage and good torque for diesel
6. ABS and EBD standard
Cons -
1. Mahindra should go with 15 inch for base and 16 inch tire for top variant
2. Ground clearance should be minimum 185 mm
Overall this is nice option. Mark my words, "This car will hit Indian market. " - 7th Feb'16
Parag A agreed
Exactly.....u said each and every piont very right. Appreciate
Ummm, it's not happening
those spaces are awesome in the car and the place of the gear suprisingly gives a smile to the face a nyc effort from the indian suv maker
Kartikeya Singhee...You are the best narrator I have ever seen! Just perfect!
I drove through the mountain passes in South Africa using the KUV100. I like its practical reliable drive
whatsa the highest speed of this?
When it will be available to the south indian markets (chennai) ???
Kudos to the Autocar India team for making such a wonderful video. Way to go guys! :)
Pretty cool intro video to come out of india :) keep it up guys
Hi i am from Tunisia do you advise me to buy mahindra kuv 100 ??
Mahindra KUV 100 NXT patrol and diesel variants are having almost 1 lakhs rs different so as per you opinion for about 3 years of usage which variant should I go for? tell me model also. like base model or othersper month usage would be 1200km.will mostly use in highways.
what is opinion of petrol version of kuv100
is it fine to install cng in kuv100???
Very good review. Any idea about an automatic variant?
nice video does this come in automatic
Is it k2 basic model?
K6 petrol
PROS :great car,excellent smooth ride thanks to bridgestone tyres, steering is super sensitive be careful at high speed, music system is awesome #incredible bass# ,AC is also GUD,excellent noise proofing,gears are quite easy to handle in 6 seater no pain in hand, seating is high it feels like king of the road, blue sense gud effort.. Need to add more feature in it, headlight visibility superb , super spacious , warning alerts in music system display like hand break engaged... Door open... Etc of great use , ......at last value for money
Now the down side
CONS : car length is a bit small but gud for maneuverability ..specially in traffic , kuv looks huge from front and back thanks to its width (greater than swift, Honda city, Ritz,grand i10, xcent, even Mahindra thar...) But looks a bit small from the side.., dead pedal is of no use and if u have 9shoe size it struck every time u push clutch , wearing n opening seat belt a bit uneasy in 6seater , acceleration is a gud not best ( gud for city drive) , no handy place to put cellphone for driver seat , Mahindra accessories r over priced better to go buy from outside , that's all
Note: these all r my personal experience so if u agree or not that's all ur wish I HV nothing to do with it....
Have a safe motoring
Their intro is dope
pls review XUV500 n BOLERO too..... looking forward to buy either of them but really confused....
I hope that rear pillars where the door handle is placed won't make a blind spot when changing lanes.
2020 ka top model kitne ka hai petrol wala
I feel the overall reviewing has been improved.
Its much more fun to watch now.
Karthik is the reason I watch Autocar.
Nice job Mahindra.
Maybe this can be my First Car :)
That middle seat is really good on both sides.
kuv exterior design at TUV100 size and features would have been a winner . this looks like a raised nano and the TUV a suitcase with wheels
The wheels looking a bit too small for the body frame ?
well done Mahindra!! wish u guys good luck
I loved it..! Will definitely buy this soon...!
I've test drive today n I didn't find any problem in case of front view. I could judge properly. Only the clutch wasn't giving me push once I was releasing as it required accelerator. Rest is all ok.
Wow man very nice start.
Well come "Baby XUV".........Appreciable work from indian company.....kudos to M&M..
it's really a very good car, well done mahindra n mahindra keep it up, cheers
very good effort mahindra..
car looks amazing.
how much cc?????
kartikeya singhee is the best host and reviewer ever. kudos kartik,really nice work.
Kartikeya you look happy today
So no back cameras???
my opinion...exceptional effort from Mahindra..wow
Good review. But where is the hand break?
A perfect reviewer..... great one!!!
Which one is preferable....petrol r dzl engine
i really liked the front arm rest concept. (y) 5:17
@Kartikeye Singhee, love the Anchoring at 1:55!
Guys can I trust Mahindra for it's petrol engine and go for KUV 100 . Im worried of Mahindra s suspension setting for its floaty feel . My budget is around 5.5 to 6 n I want to go for petrol please suggest me the best car
good job mahindra..but I expect more refinement and price cuts in e2o electric vehicle.. kuv looks value for money though.
Dear autocar expert. I am planning to buy kwid rxt or kuv100 k2 version . This will be my first car and my usage will not be much. I have family of 3 person. Due to look, ABS and more powerful engine should I pay 1 lkhs rupees extra?? Give me your personal opinion asap.
omg! this car was so awaited that for putting it on air review for me ! :)
am looking for a good car in my budget 5 to 6lacks, am not interest maruti its build up quality very bad, i select one model nissan micra active Xvs model please suggest me good car...
thanks
How many price?
where is the review on isuzu mu7
I love all of Mahindra cars n trucks etc.
nice!!! breaking distance and time taken please
Even though the design isnt a total success , Mahindra knows what will sell. Love Mahindras safety concerns. Big Thumps up for KUV100
Is this is four wheel drive or not
I have kuv and I have taken it to offroads.it is better than all other cars in its compact
I really liked this one!
Awesome review!!
Great job kartikeya dir
good work mahindra. long way since jeep and armada
This car is very nice and powerful. Position of the gear is good. Comfortable boot space. Very Nice car.
This is which k8 version
he is so cute... i love him
guys please do a comparison of Ignis vs Kuv100
nice car...autocar yours reviews are best
hey kartik.. .i loved this this car...i went fr test drive after watching this review...only one question...should I go for this...Yes or NO...confused...but I liked it...
for all who have not driven it... you sure need to have it once... it feels a lot more like an SUV than an hatch back and the power it commands is really great compare the drive with other hatchback... KUV takes away the prize for its offerings
Nice review !!!!!!
The tyre size looks small when viewed from the side and the body feels like bulging over them.
Looks like a good city compact suv
Mileage?
nice car nice design price tag is veru nice i think it going to rock the segment
With small wheels and long body type if you look the vehicle from Far it looks like an auto
But i really liked the way you have reviewed the car 😜 it's very tough to hide imperfections
booked it today itself.... very impressed... 8 out of 10
Shreyas Sutar hows it
how is it ? Can I exchange Polo for Kuv?
@@AriseRayamangalamyes you can
Hii maruti suzuki ignis petrol is better or mahindra kuv100 petrol k4 is better... any standard features... please suggest me....
.
vivek reddy KUV bro. Ignis looks like a piece of shit
Autocar, FYI, you cant have front bench for 3 seats. its only to keep bags and not to sit. there is not seat belt for middle seat. so its not passenger seat. 4:40
amzing car and the speaker is too good
I like it 😘😘😘😘😚👏👏👏meri jaan eek number car👍👍👍👍👍✊✊
If priced right, i think this car can be a game changer for Mahindra!
My car is kuv
What is with m&m naming their cars double oo, huge bond fans?
oh ho ho...Could be thisKUV overtake entry level hatch backs.... I think so
jeep look to a car is always a plus. cuz jeep is like power symbol
@Kartikey Singhee looks so innocent in this video
What a car amazing i dont have explanation. Mahindra done very good job. Lot of features expect in this cost its unbelievable. Kuv100 will transform market in higher level. Abs ebd safety features are needs not luxury this neediness properly understand by Mahindra. I am very happy Indian car manufacturer tells outsiders we are above your level of safety. :))
That was one hell of a review. Even though KUV100 doesn't please me much, I'm sure of one thing, this is going to sell like hot cakes. And the chances are that, M&M is going to be a really big global automotive player within a decade. Only if they could invest more in Reva and build the brand. The first gen Reva had quite a fan-following in many western markets. M&M and TATAs needs to invest a way lot more in li-ion battery tech.
it's a best looking car in sub 4mtr segement till yet..
please please please tell mahindra to give abs and ebd as option and touch the magical 3L figure and it will give the kwid a run for its money
Gear liver position is like japnese style , anyway I hope it's a good car
Great work done by Mahindra
and by u guys.....
Well i must saw that u were really enjoying ride of car ,frm ur face i can make out
I have seen u in big cars also but ur reaction to this car was awesome
and it should b
bcoz car is awesome
but i have recently bought Tata Zest Xt petrol which is awesome comparatively to price of this car
but this car gives obe more reason to smile is that its SUV style design
+amit kumar Giri You have a Zest and you really call this "KUV" an SUV??
GREAT LOOKING CAR ,,,,
7:10 looks like range rover evoque!
+Sumedh Nandedkar lol
Yup Lolz.....
+Sumedh Nandedkar Negative....Looks like the Range Rover Evoque, the Ford EcoSport and the Suzuki Celerio had a ménage à trois.
+Sumedh Nandedkar lol

Good impressive car
