Mahindra has revealed more details about its much-anticipated SUV, the XUV 3XO. The vehicle, which is set to be launched on April 29, 2024, is expected to set a new benchmark in the SUV segment.
Performance and Specifications
The latest teaser reveals the acceleration of the XUV 3XO. The company claims that the vehicle can go from 0 to 60 kmph in just 4.5 seconds which arguably is the fastest in the segment. The company is also claiming that the XUV 3XO will deliver a fuel efficiency of 20.1 kmpl.
The XUV 3XO is expected to use the same engine and transmission options as the outgoing XUV300. These include a 1.2-litre turbo petrol, a 1.2-litre T-GDi (turbo-petrol), and a 1.5-litre diesel engine. The transmission options will include a six-speed manual and a six-speed AMT gearbox. However, the existing AMT transmission option could be replaced with a proper torque converter automatic transmission. This will put the XUV 3XO in direct competition with the automatic Venue and Sonet which come with a 7-speed DCT.
Design and Features
The XUV 3XO boasts striking LED DRLs, connected LED tail-lamps, and layered-spoke alloy wheels. The XUV 3XO will be the first sub-compact (under 4 meter length) SUV in India to feature a panoramic sunroof. Its predecessor, the Mahindra XUV300, was only available with a single-pane sunroof. The new dual-pane panoramic sunroof, dubbed as the “skyroof”, is expected to enhance the passenger experience by offering a more expansive view of the sky.
The XUV 3XO will also feature Mahindra’s AdrenoX connected car technology suite. This technology allows drivers to pre-cool the cabin before entering the car and remotely control the air conditioning.
XUV 3XO Pricing and Availability
The XUV 3XO is expected to be launched with an introductory starting price of ₹8 lakh, ex-showroom. As the launch date approaches, more details about the vehicle’s features and specifications are expected to be revealed.
