The newly launched sporty version of the compact SUV from Mahindra is for those who are looking for a distinct road presence
In this post, we are comparing the Mahindra XUV3XO RevX with the Tata Nexon Creative Plus trim. Note that I have tried to compare the similarly priced iterations of these compact SUVs. In the top version, the RevX retails for Rs 12.99 lakh, while the Nexon Creative Plus bears a price tag of Rs 13.50 lakh, ex-showroom. Interestingly, both of these are automatic variants, which makes this comparison fair. Let us delve into the specifics of this case here.
