2024 GWM Haval Jolion Summary

The new GWM Haval Jolion Lux sits second from the bottom in the Jolion line-up but offers a longer features list than most of its competitors. A boast that stands it in good stead from the outset.

But the question is how do those features perform in the real world? In this review we unpack how the new Jolion handles urban life.

2026 Mahindra XUV3XO Summary

Mahindra & Mahindra, to use the full name, is an automotive company with a long history, loyal following and steady vision.

With annual profits in the billions, it is celebrating its 80th anniversary by looking upwards and outwards, developing new technologies and – ambitiously – a wider global footprint.

Australia is more familiar territory, though, thanks to a 20-year presence with tractors, Pik-Up workhorse and, more recently, the rugged Scorpio 4x4 and slick XUV700 family SUV, which replaced the XUV500.

The new XUV 3XO, however, should dramatically broaden the brand’s appeal, as a headfirst dive into a pool teaming with cheap yet sophisticated small SUVs from China, Korea and Japan like the Chery Tiggo 4, GWM Haval Jolion, MG ZS, Hyundai Venue and Kia Stonic.

Our first taste of Mahindra’s smallest model, at its massive proving ground in India, reveals something quite unexpected.
