Mahindra XUV700: Mahindra’s popular SUV, the XUV700, has reached an impressive milestone. The company has produced 2 lakh units of the XUV700 within 33 months since its launch. This achievement highlights the vehicle’s popularity and Mahindra’s commitment to meeting demand.
Milestone Achievements
Mahindra launched the XUV700 in August 2021. The SUV quickly gained traction in the market, reaching the first milestone of 1 lakh units in May 2023. This accomplishment took just 21 months. Mahindra then doubled this figure in the next 12 months by increasing production capacity. This strategy helped reduce waiting periods and ensured timely deliveries.
New Colour Options
To celebrate the 2 lakh units milestone, Mahindra introduced two new colour options for the XUV700. These are Deep Forest, also available on the Scorpio N, and Burnt Sienna, exclusive to the XUV700. These additions provide customers with more choices and add to the SUV’s appeal.
Consistent Demand and Special Editions
Mahindra revealed in its Q4 FY24 press conference that the XUV700 receives an average of 8,000 bookings each month. This number increased from 7,000 units in Q3 FY24. The consistent demand prompted Mahindra to launch special editions and new trims. Last month, the company introduced the XUV700 Blaze Edition and the AX5 Select trim. The Blaze Edition, inspired by ‘fire,’ features a striking matte red paint job. The AX5 Select trim, positioned between the AX3 and AX5 trims, offers additional features, enhancing the SUV’s value proposition.
MY24 XUV700 Updates
In January, Mahindra launched the MY24 XUV700 with fresh updates. The new Napoli black paint scheme, featuring black alloy wheels, black roof rails, and a black grille, stands out. The AX7 and AX7L variants received additional features such as captain seats, ventilated front seats, and ORVMs with a memory function. Moreover, Mahindra integrated 13 new features into the Adrenox connected car tech suite, enhancing the SUV’s technology offering.
Engine and Transmission Options
The Mahindra XUV700 offers both petrol and diesel powertrain options. The petrol engine produces 197 bhp and 380 Nm of torque. The diesel engine delivers 182 bhp and 420 Nm of torque, with 450 Nm available with the automatic transmission. Customers can choose between automatic and manual transmission options for both powertrains, providing flexibility based on their preferences.
Pricing and Variants
The Mahindra XUV700 comes in various trims, starting with the MX variant at Rs 13.99 lakh. The price goes up to Rs 26.04 lakh for the AX7 L Blaze variant, ex-showroom. This wide price range ensures that the XUV700 caters to a broad audience, offering something for everyone.
Conclusion
The Mahindra XUV700’s journey to 2 lakh units in less than three years underscores its success in the SUV market. With continuous updates, special editions, and new features, Mahindra keeps the XUV700 relevant and appealing to customers. The introduction of new colour options and the consistent demand further solidify its position as a popular choice among SUV enthusiasts.
