TT Score
A data-backed 7.8/10 family MUV for Indian buyers, with strong claimed fuel economy, seven seats and a high 4.5/5 owner score, balanced against an entry price of about ₹8.90 lakh ex-showroom and limited safety information beyond the listed
Who it suits
- Fuel-cost-conscious family — The claimed CNG efficiency is 26.11 km/kg, while the petrol figure is 20.3 kmpl, giving buyers two efficiency-focused options.
- Seven-seat family buyer — It offers 7 seats with front-wheel drive, making its core specification explicitly focused on carrying a larger family.
- Budget-focused MUV buyer — The Lxi starts at ₹8.90 lakh ex-showroom, with our estimated on-road entry price ranging from about ₹9.97 lakh in Delhi to ₹10.59 lakh in Karnataka.
- Buyer prioritising ownership feedback — Our pooled figure is 4.5/5 from 861 owner ratings, a comparatively large sample supporting the ownership score.
Worth knowing
- · The ₹8.90 lakh-₹13.04 lakh ex-showroom range is approximate and spans a wide ₹4.14 lakh gap between entry and top listed variants.
- · The claimed 26.11 km/kg applies to CNG; the petrol efficiency claim is lower at 20.3 kmpl.
- · The safety score is constrained by the checked data: it lists 6 airbags, but provides no crash-test or broader active-safety information.
