Pros & Cons

XL6 Pros & Cons	Carens Pros & Cons
Pros	The 6-seater version makes it comfortable at every seat. The large window area in the second row brings a lot of airy feeling inside. Second-row seats get separate AC controls for the passengers. The all-LED headlamps have brilliant illumination at night. All the 6 -seats offer adjustable headrests which is a nice feature on offer. The 1.5L petrol engine is smooth and refined with a CNG option as well. In CNG, it offers an exceptional fuel efficiency of 24-26 km/kg on highways. Comes with paddle shifters in the automatic transmission variant.	It offers 3 engine options to suit various needs The Carens offers a premium cabin feel with 6 & 7 seater option It comes with features like a ventilated seat, 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment, an electric sunroof, wireless charging, automatic climate control and others The safety kit includes 6 airbags, all-4 disc brakes, ESP, ABS, VSM, and others The space inside the cabin is sufficient to carry big families The six-seater variant comes with second-row captain seats for enhanced comfort The ride quality of the Carens is impressive, despite being a long vehicle it gives normal car-like road manners The one-touch topple-down second-row seats give easy access to the third-row Availability of automatic transmission in all three powertrain options
Cons	Limited to petrol engines only. Higher variants are not value-for-money options. Could have offered more features as compared to the rivals.	The pricing of the top-spec variant is too high Six-seater configuration is available in the top-spec variants only The third row feels a little crammed mostly suitable for kids The positioning of the air purifier eats up the kneeroom of the second-row passenger behind the driver The reliability of the DCT gearbox is a question It misses on some features such as a 360-degree camera, panoramic sunroof, and some others The diesel engine does not offer a proper manual gearbox, it comes with an iMT unit

  It's good. Silent Engine. Sturdy. Good for bigger family. Long-distance travel is comfortable. Smooth driving experience. Mileage is 17 km. reason for showing interest in selling is that mine is a small family with only 2 people.

  A nice car reasonably made for long drives. In the city, however, there is no car. Fuel economy is 18 to 20 on highways. In city returns 8 to 10 only. The power is sluggish when it is about taking over other vehicles. However, the comfort is awesome. Decent family car for four people.
