Mahindra has finally unveiled the price list for all the variants of the XUV700. The Mahindra XUV700 made its debut at a starting price of INR 11.99 lakh, all the way up to INR 19.79 lakh (ex-showroom). Now the brand has hiked the prices of the Mahindra XUV700 which now comes with a new starting price of INR 12.49 lakh (ex-showroom). The price bracket makes the SUV one of the most attractive offerings in the segment. In fact, the 7 seater-variants of the XUV 700 are quite attractively priced, given the tech and features on offer. We expect a very long waiting list for the new XUV 700.
After the launch of XUV700, all eyes are now on the all-new Scorpio, which will most likely hit the showrooms sometime next year. The car has been spotted quite a lot of times under heavy camouflage road testing in extreme climate conditions of Ladakh. Mahindra will soon introduce the electric version of XUV300 to leverage the increasing demand for e-mobility in the country. Meanwhile, the electric version of XUV700 will most likely hit the roads sometime in 2023. In fact, there are rumours that Mahindra will also launch 2 stand lone electric vehicles before 2026.
