The Creta has a better reputation for reliability, while the XUV700 is larger and more comfortable.
I currently own a Hyundai Creta diesel manual that’s done 1.2 lakh km in four years and I’m planning to upgrade. I drive 90km daily, and it’s a mix of city, highway and bad roads. My budget is around Rs 21 lakh-22 lakh, and I am confused.

Autocar India says: For your daily commute of 90km a day, it’s advisable you go in for a diesel SUV again. One option is to go in for another Creta, which got a substantial facelift earlier this year. You can also take a look at the XUV700 diesel, which is a good highway cruiser and can take a beating on bad roads; the Mahindra diesel has a lot of overtaking power to make highway driving effortless. The XUV700 doesn’t have the same reputation for reliability as the Creta, but it’s a bigger and more comfortable car with good features.
