Cons
  • Limited interior cabin utility space restricts storage options for instance the glove box is relatively small, 4WD variants feature a single cup holder
  • Powerful engines, but not much fuel efficient
  • The touchscreen infotainment system has an attractive appearance but sometimes feels laggy
  • Essential features like auto-dimming IRVM, ventilated seats, and third-row AC vents are not available
  • The boot space becomes insufficient when carrying 5-6 passengers
  • Mahindra's after-sales support receives limited appreciation from owners
  • 6-Seater configuration is available in higher variants only
  • The only available powertrain is diesel; there is no petrol or turbo-petrol engine.
  • The Safari does not come with a 4WD drivetrain while some competitors offer 4WD as an option
  • Occasionally, the infotainment software exhibits lag and may cease functioning
  • The dimensions remain mostly unchanged from the pre-facelift model. This leads to a cramped feel in the last row.
