Most Tank-like SUV: New Duster vs Scorpio-N, Harrier & Kushaq - Build Quality Battle

Which SUV under 20 lakhs feels the most solid and well-built?

I recently test drove a friend's old Duster and was impressed by how solid it felt compared to newer cars. With the new Duster coming soon, I'm curious how it'll stack up against today's safety-focused SUVs. Looking for opinions on which SUV in this price range feels the most robust and secure - especially important given our road conditions and highway speeds.

I frequently travel between Mumbai's corporate hubs and construction sites in Maharashtra's rural areas. Need an SUV that looks professional for client meetings but won't struggle on rough patches and village roads. Budget isn't the main concern, but reliability and ground clearance are crucial. Currently comparing these options - what's your take on the best all-rounder?

Looking for a reliable SUV that can handle rough roads without falling apart. Our family does regular Bangalore-Chennai trips, so build quality matters. Confused between the proven Duster and newer options like Nexon and XUV3XO. Want something that stays tight and rattle-free after years of use. Budget is flexible up to 18 lakh. Any real-world experiences?

Planning frequent trips to Himachal and Uttarakhand, so I need something reliable in slush and steep climbs, but not as hardcore as a Thar. Budget is flexible, but looking for the sweet spot between comfort and capability. Main use will be highway cruising with occasional rough patches. My Duster AWD served well earlier - wondering if these newer options are significantly better?
