Q.Mahindra KUV 100 or Ford New-Gen Figo?

Thanks [USER="42"]CorsaVeloce[/USER] [USER="11"]kaiserketkar[/USER] [USER="42"]CorsaVeloce[/USER] I see mahindra have tried best to give a SUV-Hatchback crossover but figo won in drivability and control which i felt when i test drove both of them again. I know mahindra is best in diesel segment but am afraid of mFalcon new engine family though. So i have booked Figo some days back. [USER="11"]kaiserketkar[/USER] Mahindra is a bit costly when compared to Figo (10k - 15k). In KUV, they have given so many features but i felt they have compromised on the quality of the dashboard and overall interiors. And more importantly figo is not bad in storage spaces when compared to KUV, ford also offers lots of storage spaces in the new gen figo.

The KUV100 is a great vehicle, engine is excellent, and looks the role of an SUV, but I feel the Figo is the more complete car. Although only slight, it has an edge over the KUV and would be my recommendation. Few things going for the KUV though: price [about 50-70k cheaper than the Figo] flexi seating [I would rather not use the 6th seat at all, but if the need arises, it can swallow one more passenger with some discomfort] SUV stance [although the GC of both is almost the same] features, and storage spaces. If any or all of these interest you, then go for the KUV, it surely won't disappoint.

[USER="911"]sathishdk[/USER], if you have test driven both, you would know that both cars offer different levels of utility. The Figo is ideal for the city conditions, given its comparatively low seating position and great driving ergonomics. It also boasts of a great engine, with brilliant mileage and feel. The cons of this car, are the fact that service cost would be on the higher side as compared to Mahindra and also, re sale value would be slightly lower The KUV100 offers a great value for money package, and the engine on offer has been tried and tested on a lot of cars. As the car is new in the market, it is rather difficult to talk about how it would deliver on the reliability front. Overall, it is a good package, but I would recommend the Figo.
