This car has been exceptionally comfortable and dependable on long trips, having already clocked 3 lakh kilometres. Ride comfort stands out: the suspension handles rough roads, highway stretches, and uneven terrain with ease, which makes it ideal for covering long distances. Even after hours behind the wheel, driver fatigue is minimal because of supportive seating and a stable drive. Passengers benefit from generous space and a smooth ride as well. Durability is another strong suit. Reaching 300,000 kilometres is no small feat, and the build quality and mechanical reliability have proven themselves over time. Engine performance has stayed consistent, and with proper maintenance it continues to deliver dependable performance, making it a good long-term choice for frequent travellers. On the highway it offers a commanding presence and reassuring handling. It feels planted at higher speeds, the steering gives adequate feedback, and the braking system is reliable. The main drawback is the service network of Mahindra & Mahindra. While the car is capable and robust, the limited reach and uneven service quality can be frustrating, especially when travelling across regions. In remote areas, finding authorised service centres is difficult, and delays or inadequate support can impact the ownership experience. Maintenance expenses are generally reasonable, but the inconvenience of poor service accessibility sometimes outweighs that advantage. For a vehicle used extensively for long journeys, timely servicing and support are essential. In summary, it excels in comfort, durability, and long-distance performance, but the restricted service reach holds it back. If the network improves, this would easily be among the best options for long-distance travel enthusiasts.

Packed with features at a wallet-friendly price, this is a terrific family car. Performance on family trips is excellent, and it's turbocharged too. Delivers better mileage than many other 7-seaters, offers a roomy cabin, and even feels like a mini luxury car. M6, M6 Plus, and M8 come with nearly all the features.

Cabin space is excellent. Storage is handy, though the centre console's mobile slot needs a small redesign.
