Though expensive, the XUV300 AMT offers great convenience

Verdict – The Mahindra XUV300 is an impressive compact SUV but it is also the most expensive car in its segment. With the addition of the AMT, Mahindra will definitely get more sales. The AMT variants are priced at a premium of about Rs. 60,000/- over their manual counterparts and we think that this premium is totally worth it since the convenience offered by an automatic in traffic is too good to be ignored. While its rivals like the Maruti Vitara Brezza AMT and Tata Nexon AMT are priced considerably lesser, the XUV300 does offer much more features and power than both these vehicles.
