The Mahindra XUV 7XO will be a good upgrade for you. Both engines, turbo-petrol and diesel, deliver strong performance and are smooth and refined. Both are also available with 6-speed manual or automatic gearbox options. The driving manners are excellent, and with all the latest in terms of tech and features, the XUV 7XO feels thoroughly modern. You also get the flexibility of a third row of seats, should you need to ferry 6 or 7 passengers.
A Tata Safari is also a good alternative to the XUV 7XO. You may also consider EV options like the Mahindra XEV 9e or Tata Harrier EV.
