SUV · Diesel cars in India
Deep, structured model reviews for every car Autovisor has profiled — variants, real-world mileage, ownership costs, safety and the AI Advisor's verdict.
Creta
The default family compact SUV — widest engine choice, class-leading rear seat and the strongest resale in its segment.
Seltos
All-new second generation (2026) — bigger than the Creta, 5-star Bharat NCAP, turbo-petrol DCT and diesel automatic.
Nexon
Safety-first sub-4m SUV — 5-star Bharat NCAP, turbo-petrol and diesel, plus a genuine dual-clutch automatic.
Venue
The technology-led city SUV — best-in-class infotainment and three engines, in a narrower cabin.
XUV 3XO
The widest, fastest and most feature-dense sub-4m SUV — 5-star Bharat NCAP, with the smallest boot in the class.
XUV 7XO
The XUV700's successor — 200 PS petrol or 185 PS diesel, seven seats standard (six optional), 5-star Bharat NCAP and AWD on diesel automatics.
Harrier
The five-seat premium SUV — 5-star Bharat NCAP, the calmest highway ride in its class and a 445-litre boot, with no third row.
Scorpio-N
The genuine ladder-frame SUV — rear-wheel drive as standard, real low-range 4WD on top diesel trims, six or seven seats.
Curvv
The coupe-SUV that keeps the substance — 5-star Bharat NCAP, a 500-litre boot and a rare diesel automatic, at the cost of rear headroom.
Sonet
The widest powertrain choice in the sub-4m class — three engines, five gearboxes, and the segment's only diesel torque-converter automatic.
Thar
Real body-on-frame 4x4 capability and unmatched presence — bought despite the three-door practicality, not because of it.
Thar ROXX
Thar character with five doors and a five-star Bharat NCAP result — but petrol is rear-wheel drive only and 4XPLOR starts at MX5.
Bolero
Ladder frame, rear-wheel drive and 210 Nm from 1,600 rpm — a working seven-seater bought for durability, not for airbags or refinement.
Safari
Five-star Global and Bharat NCAP, six or seven seats, 170 PS petrol or diesel — for families who genuinely fill the third row.
