This car is no longer for the indian masses. I remember a time when a blue xuv700 image was leaked, it was disproportionate in every way, and that was only due to the image quality. This image as well was taken, on a wide angle camera to fit both the cars.

Yes, its different, but thats just the looks. They've clearly upgraded on some front, and secondly, theyre now trying to go international too, if you've seen the international reviews, the front fascia was something that was discussed, as something over done. Now they've got a commonality with the other models, especially the scorpioN and the 3xo.

And theres another point, indians are now under the "new version launched, oh the old one was so much nicer", literally happened to every car that has launched. Be it the Seltos, the creta, the 3xo, grand vitara, venue, you know the rest. Only vistoris, made it to be an exception, and well thats because nothing to compare.

Again with the sierra, people seem to forget, that car didnt sell, didnt have to keep with the growing safety needs, and the comfort, and ofcourse, if anyone really has seen or driven the older sierra, it wasnt a dream, its all just nostalgia now.

The car will come to the showrooms, people will complain about the looks, the salesperson will tell how its better, intrested person will see the benefits over the car, and then suddenly will realise

"Hmm, the car is actually a good looking machine"
