Mahindra XUV 700 : The Mahindra XUV700 has been a talk of the town since its launch in the Indian SUV space.
Designed to push the boundaries of what’s possible in an accessible price point, XUV700 combines stand-out muscular design, cutting-edge technology, and luxury features like never before.
This is much more than just another SUV — it’s Mahindra’s high-stakes declaration in the world of feature-packed, tech-heavy cars.
We can confirm that when it comes to power, space, tech, and comfort, the XUV700 has it all in spades.
Take a more in depth look at the attention to details that make this SUV a standout and why this vehicle is being compared to cars many levels higher.
A Bold and Modern Design
1 of 6Introducing the XUV700 The XUV700 will make a bold statement with its aggressive and futuristic design.
Its massive front grille, complete with chrome inserts, sharp looking led headlamps with DRLs, flush door handles, and lines that run across the sides of the car give it a premium look that stands out instantly.
Its road presence is imposing, the credit for which goes to its bold alloy wheels, dynamic roof rails and the stylish tail lamps. From standstill, to on the move, on road it looks cool, substantial and sophisticated.
High-End Amenities to Make You Feel at Home
XUV700The real highlight of the XUV700 though is the interiors. Mahindra has filled this SUV until no space is left for the naysayers who don’t know any better and expect nothing but crappy, poorbiesh, plasticky daal rotia type chariots.
Some interior highlights are :
Dual 10.25-inch screens: One for the infotainment, the other for the digital instrument cluster
Panoramic Skyroof: For a wide angle view and bright cabin feel
12 speakers – Sony 3D Sound Technology: sound you can feel.
AdrenoX connected car tech: Voice commands, remote access, and car diagnostics
Leatherette seating with memory feature
Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay (coming soon via update)
Auto ac and ambient lighting
The XUV700 is generously equipped even in its lower-spec variants and gives you value for money across the line up.
Powerful Engine Options
It’s not just about looks and comfort—it packs a mean punch under the hood too. Mahindra provides you two capable engines to choose from:
2.0L turbo petrol (mStallion) – 200 PS power and 380 Nm of torque
2.2L turbo diesel (mHawk) – Upto 185 PS and 450 Nm torque (in higher end variants)
Neither engine is rude or lazy. Assuming you want a manual, or automatic transmission, you get the choice of a 6-speed automatic.
The upper variant even gets a diesel engine, and with the All-Wheel Drive (AWD) available, this one can be taken to different terrains as well.
Advanced Safety Package
The XUV700 doesn’t play around with safety and gets one of the most complete safety packages in its segment:
ADAS The use of ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) has increased substantially in recent years in order to prevent accidents.
Lane Keep Assist
Adaptive Cruise Control
Automatic Emergency Braking
7 airbags in top variants
360 camera (hopefully in future updates)
Stabilizing Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and Traction Control
ISOFIX child seat mounts
It also gets a 5-star Global NCAP safety rating, ensuring good structural integrity and peace of mind when it comes to safety.

The XUV700 is offered in two key variants: MX and AX (AX3, AX5, AX7, and AX7L). Prices begin at ₹14 lakh and goes up to ₹27 lakh (ex-showroom) for the top-end models with diesel-auto-AWD combination.
For the quality of features and tech, it’s hard to beat at any price.
