The Spec'd take

Why it stands out

  • 5-star Euro NCAP rating (2022) with 4MATIC AWD standard on every variant
  • 48V mild-hybrid assist on both engines adds real efficiency and low-speed smoothness
  • 620 litre boot is a genuine 70 litre gain over the previous generation

Worth knowing

  • Only 2 variants offered, a narrow real choice within the range
  • Diesel and petrol are priced identically at Rs 77 lakh, which removes any real price-based reason to pick one over the other
