I have this car and I never noticed the boot issue. The only thing that kinda annoyed me was figuring out the child lock but other than that it's a great car and I love it so far

Can you even pack a weekly grocery shopping in this? Boot looked very small when I test drove it, even after extending trick mentioned here. Thanks.

I am from India having both XUV 300 and 700 , trust me sir these two cars are unbelievable, they provide comfortable ride quality as well as with decent mileage. Also they have enough features as compare to other cars in the segment. Also Recently launched XUV700 has got 5 starts in GNCAP with the award of as safest car of India .

I test drove this in South Africa and while it drives great, I found boot too small. It doesn’t look like one can fit even 1 large travel bag or weekly grocery shopping. I wanted to buy this car so what a pity.

I am South African and seriously considering this car.

Great. Did you find this video valuable to help with your decision to buy or not to buy this car?

No Indian reviewer ever showed us that sliding boot tray, so we thought 259 L was it's boot space, but now thanks to your video i know how it increases to 288 l. Love from India.
