Our verdict

These two split the decision: the Hyundai Exter is रु 12,99,000 cheaper ex-showroom (35.1%), while the Mahindra XUV300 is ahead on dealer and service reach — so the answer depends on which of those you are buying for.

Choose the Hyundai Exter if
  • the ex-showroom price is your binding constraint
Choose the Mahindra XUV300 if
  • you want servicing within reach of where you live
  • you want a dealer close enough to visit and negotiate at

Measured: 123 more service centres in Nepal (158 vs 35); 55 more showrooms in Nepal (126 vs 71).

Every figure in this verdict is computed from the table below — the same ex-showroom prices, variant specifications and Nepal service network the page publishes. Nothing here is an estimate, and where a figure is missing on one side the axis is left out rather than guessed.
