Pros & Cons Comparison

Things We Like in Mahindra XUV 3XO

All four wheels get disc brakes as standard even on the base variant.
The 1.2-litre TGDi engine's 230 Nm of torque, available from 1,500 rpm, gives it a pull that Mahindra claims is 35% higher than its nearest petrol rivals in the segment.

Things We Like in Kia Sonet

Six airbags are standard on every single variant, not just the top variants.
The powertrain lineup of three engines and up to six transmissions is among the widest in the segment.

Things We Don't Like in Mahindra XUV 3XO

Drive modes (Zip, Zap, Zoom) are exclusive to petrol automatic variants, manual buyers and diesel customers get no such option.
Smart Pilot Assist and Adaptive Cruise Control, are locked to Luxury pack petrol automatic variants only.

Things We Don't Like in Kia Sonet

The Sonet hasn't been independently crash tested by Global NCAP or Bharat NCAP.
All-wheel disc brakes are offered on higher variants, while lower variants get rear drum brakes.
