Mahindra is the leader in the SUV segment by a huge margin and this has prompted a giant leap from the company with the launch of the Xylo which actually looks a bit odd. The signature of the company still retains its place at the centre but looks out of sorts. It does have some nice points with the angular front lights and equally angular ones at the back as well. However when compared to the whole body they seem to vanish. The car has a SUV stance but looks quite rigid and looks to fall down anytime compared to the Innova. It looks like an attempt to save money and yet provide the same level of space. This is clearly revealed on the inside out built up of the car.
The car has a body on frame design which seems to be the next evolution from the bolero design. The car is 30 percent stronger than the Scorpio. The suspension is taken by the double wishbones and coil springs. The anti roll bar is available only for the front. The suspension at the back is non independent, live axel with coil springs, a notch up from cart-like leaf springs.
On the inside the car is a heaven of space right from the first entry. The dashboards are up to the present days and the centre console is quite large. It has embedded ac vents and the Digital Drive Assist System (DDAS) information display pod. This feature is a Google of information and there seems to a bouquet of features on the board. The features are good but the quality they are made of is quite a letdown. The interior quality, Sloppy rubber beadings, queer-colored bits, large gaps in the joints are some of let downs in the car. This is where the Innova scores over its rivals with some good quality fit and finish.
All the seats are very comfortable and is one of the most spacious MPV by far in every dimension. You might even confuse them for your living room if you happen to stay for long. Only let down in the seats is that the seats are not slide able.
The seats of the next two rows are flappable for additional luggage space and the generous spring loading makes it so easy to operate the seats. The comfort is taken car by individual air con vents, an armrest, cabin lights, cup holders and butterfly opening rear windows.
The engine is the tried and tested CRDe that debuted in the Scorpio in 2005. This time it has been re-badged as the mEagle in the latest Mahindra. The engine has also undergone some upgrades such as hydraulic valve adjusters, an automatic belt tensioner and a recalibrated ECU to help adjust for the smaller swept volume. The linear power delivery does not quite match up to the likes of the Toyota Innova but it does build up like a wave and then there is the huge surge. The car is not eager on the throttle and feels strained when extended. The terrific mid-range ensures you are never left in the lurge for power even at full load. The Xylo for its huge size easily makes the 100kph dash below 15 seconds.
