The car has a great value for money. though it looses out on looks it makes it up with the amazing power in the car.
The popularity of the XUV 500 will be a disadvantage for the sales of the car.Though tata has the capacity to take the market with a storm

  1. I give it 8 out of 10.When it was shown in Delhi Auto Expo it has created a sensation in the SUV market because Safari is a TATA's legendary SUV and its revival is not good for other brands.They have already equipped with lethal looks and accessories.The only thing which can create a problem is its high price level.
