Feature-Packed Mahindra XUV 3XO Launched, Starting At Rs. 7.49 lakh

The wait is over! Mahindra has unveiled the much-anticipated Mahindra XUV 3XO, the successor of the XUV300. This subcompact SUV boasts a comprehensive makeover, both inside and out, making it a strong contender in the competitive Indian car market.

Striking New Design Language

The XUV 3XO sheds the XUV300’s design elements for a bold and contemporary look. The front end dominates with completely redesigned LED projector headlights flanked by reshaped LED daytime running lights. A new grille and a reshaped front bumper complete the transformation. While the side profile retains hints of the XUV300, the rear showcases C-shaped LED taillights connected by a full-width LED light bar, adding a touch of sophistication.

A Cabin Crafted for Comfort and Convenience

One of the most significant upgrades lies within the XUV 3XO’s cabin. Mahindra has addressed a prior shortcoming by furnishing the interior with a design heavily inspired by the electric XUV400 Pro. Stepping inside reveals a premium feel, with a driver-centric layout featuring a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system seamlessly integrated with a matching 10.25-inch digital instrument display.

Segment-First Features Elevate the Experience

The XUV 3XO raises the bar in the subcompact SUV segment by introducing a plethora of segment-first features. Top-spec variants boast dual-zone automatic climate control, a panoramic sunroof, and an electronic parking brake, enhancing comfort and convenience. Additionally, features like leatherette seats, wireless Android Auto and CarPlay, Alexa integration, a Harman Kardon sound system, wireless charging, and a six-way adjustable driver’s seat elevate the driving experience.

Advanced Safety Technologies Ensure Peace of Mind

Safety remains a top priority for Mahindra. The XUV 3XO comes equipped with a comprehensive suite of safety features, including six airbags, disc brakes on all four wheels, three-point seat belts with reminders, and ISOFIX child seat mounts. Higher variants boast cutting-edge Level 2 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) technology, featuring adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, lane keep assist, and blind-spot monitoring, offering an extra layer of protection.

Engine Options and Performance

Mahindra retains the proven powertrain options from the XUV300 for the XUV 3XO. The base variant features a 1.2-liter turbo-petrol engine that produces 110 bhp and 200 Nm of torque. For those seeking more power, the 1.2-liter mStallion T-GDi turbo-petrol engine delivers a punchier 130 bhp and 230 Nm of torque, accelerating the XUV 3XO from 0 to 60 kmph in a mere 4.5 seconds (4.4 seconds for the automatic variant). The 1.5-liter turbo-diesel engine remains a solid choice, offering 115 bhp and 300 Nm of torque.

The XUV 3XO caters to diverse driving preferences with three drive modes: Zip, Zap, and Zoom. All engine options come with a manual transmission. However, for those who prefer automatics, the two turbo-petrol engines are paired with a six-speed torque converter from Aisin, while the diesel variant gets a six-speed automated manual transmission.
