BHPian sidoxic <\/strong>recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n After 15,000 km and 7 months of ownership of the XUV400 these are my observations based on the points being discussed here. And feel free to ask more!<\/p>\n XUV400 Cons<\/strong><\/p>\n XUV400 Indifferent points:<\/strong><\/p>\n More on its regen modes:<\/strong><\/p>\n Would I prefer finer controls?<\/strong><\/p>\n Why not, but I doubt I’ll use it in daily driving. A zero regen mode is missed though, would love to use it on outstation trips.<\/p>\n Would we get use out of Kona style paddle shifters?<\/strong><\/p>\n Definitely not. It’s an enthusiast’s thing. Unfortunately the average driver doesn’t want to learn or meddle with braking without the B pedal.<\/p>\n I LOVED the long hold feature of the Kona and was convinced to take the plunge for this, but better sense prevailed for the sake of the family.<\/p>\n Is L gear usable?<\/strong><\/p>\n Yes, only because it gives single pedal experience in b2b traffic. Else useless. Used it <5% of the time I’m on the wheel. No one else cares for it. Would hate to be driven while someone is on high regen if they don’t know what they are doing.<\/p>\n XUV400 Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n Read BHPian comments for more insights and information.<\/p>\n\n
