XUV7XO or Scorpio N, Better Car for Highway?
The XUV7XO and Scorpio N are poles apart in their chassis and dynamics. The Scorpio N is underpinned by a ladder frame chassis, and it will always have some sort of vertical movements, even on smooth tarmac.

In short, if you are just looking at highway travel, look no further than the XUV7XO. Meanwhile, the Scorpio N suits better for rough road usage, and its ride quality is not that great in comparison to the XUV7XO. However, between the two, the Scorpio N is a rugged and tough SUV. Besides this, the XUV7XO outshines the Scorpio N in terms of sophistication and features.
In What Cases The Scorpio N Is Better Than XUV7XO?
