Tata Altroz Vs Mahindra XUV 3XO FAQs

The ex-showroom price of the Tata Altroz generally ranges from ₹6.89 Lakh to ₹11.49 Lakh. The on-road price will be higher and varies based on your city, chosen variant, RTO charges, insurance, and other taxes.

The Tata Altroz is offered with three main engine options: • 1.2L Revotron Petrol (Naturally Aspirated) • 1.2L iCNG (Bi-fuel) • 1.5L Revotorq Diesel

Yes, the petrol variant is available with both a 5-speed Manual Transmission (MT) and a 6-speed Dual Clutch Automatic (DCA). The CNG and Diesel variants are typically offered with a Manual Transmission.

Yes, the Tata Altroz is available with an iCNG variant that features Tata's twin-cylinder technology for better boot space management.

The top variants are typically the Accomplished Plus S or equivalent trims, often featuring the DCA automatic transmission or the iTurbo engine (if available in the current lineup).

The Tata Altroz has achieved an excellent safety rating: • 5-Star Rating for Adult Occupant Protection from Global NCAP (tested with dual airbags). • It has also secured a 5-Star Safety Rating from Bharat NCAP (tested with standard 6 airbags).

The Tata Altroz is now offered with 6 Airbags as standard across the range.

The XUV 3XO starts at about ₹ 7.99 lakh (ex-showroom) and goes up to 15.80 lakh.

The XUV 300 was Mahindra’s entry into sub-4-metre compact SUV segment, with a monocoque / unibody shell — unlike body-on-frame ones (like the Bolero or Thar). With 3XO, Mahindra has kept that monocoque / compact SUV DNA but heavily refreshed the design, features, safety and technology. It’s not a totally new platform, more like an evolution: better interior, LED lighting, improved safety, bigger screens, new trims. So 3XO is what XUV 300 should have been (in many eyes) back when 300 launched.

Safety is a strong point. It comes with 5-star Bharat NCAP rating for both adult and child occupant protection. It includes 35 standard safety features: 6 airbags, Electronic Stability Control (ESC) with Hill-Hold Control & Hill-Descent in some trims, ISOFIX child seat anchors, blind view monitors via 360-degree camera, disc brakes all around, etc. So Mahindra didn't just dress up 300, they upgraded protection.

1. Petrol: 1.2-litre mStallion TGDi engine, approx 130 PS / 230 Nm, with manual and AISIN 6-speed automatic option. The manual version claims ~ 20.1 km/l. 2. Diesel: 1.5-litre turbo diesel (CRDi), ~ 300 Nm torque, and claimed mileage ~ 20.6 km/l in manual diesel variant.

3XO brings lots of upgrades: Soft-touch leatherette interiors, ivory themed interiors, LED head & tail lights, piano-black grille, dual HD screens (cluster + infotainment), Skyroof, 360-degree surround view camera, modern safety tech etc. All those are things XUV300 lacked or had in lower spec. So improved comfort, visibility, tech and feel.

If you’re a Mahindra fan who wants something compact yet premium, the 3XO is for you. You get rugged build quality, wide service network, and a safer cabin than budget hatchbacks. It’s also a no-brainer car for small families, office commuters, and urban drivers who still want weekend highway confidence. Thanks to its manageable size, tight parking in malls or colonies is less drama. And with 364 litres of boot space, you can carry about 3 medium suitcases plus small bags — enough for a road trip without strapping a duffel to the roof.

If all you care about is the lowest running cost in bumper-to-bumper city traffic, a lighter hatchback might suit you better. Hardcore off-roaders, too, will be happier in a Thar or Bolero Neo. And if you routinely need 7 seats or massive rear legroom, the 3XO’s compact footprint will feel limited. Also, if you hate paying extra for fancy features you won’t use, the top-end trims might look overkill.

The XUV 3XO measures 3,995 mm long, 1,821 mm wide, 1,617 mm tall, with a 2,600 mm wheelbase. Ground clearance is a healthy 201 mm. These numbers matter because: 1. It’s compact enough for crowded city lanes, parking spots, and U-turns without making you sweat. 2. Still, the boot space of 364 litres fits a family’s luggage for a long weekend. Fold the seats and you can squeeze in camping gear or shopping hauls easily.

Let’s assume fuel is ₹ 102/litre. 1. Diesel Manual (20.6 km/l claimed) → real city ~16 km/l → ₹ 6.4/km. 2. Petrol Manual (20.1 km/l claimed) → real city ~13 km/l → ₹ 7.8/km. 3. Petrol Auto → expect ~11 km/l city → ₹ 9.2/km.

Mahindra’s service data shows a 5-year cost of about ₹ 21,000–₹ 22,000, averaging ₹ 4,000–₹ 5,000 per year. Early services (up to 20,000 km) are often free, and the bigger bills start around 30,000 km. Of course, tyres, clutch, and accidental replacements are extra.

Yes, it wears the 5-star Bharat NCAP badge, with full marks in adult protection and very high child protection scores. Features like 6 airbags, all-wheel disc brakes, ESC, ISOFIX mounts, and a 360° camera with blind view monitors make it one of the safest bets in this price band.
