XUV700 Facelift Testing: Mahindra Prepares to Revamp its SUV with New Features and Hybrid Possibilities

Mahindra is gearing up to update the XUV700 with a facelift, as evidenced by recent testing. The test vehicle, captured under camouflage, indicates a refreshed design. Although much of the design is similar, the front end will be updated. New projector headlights with circular daytime running lights are a key change. The updated XUV700 might also receive a new grille with vertical slats. Other possible upgrades include a triple-screen setup, a dashboard design derived from the XUV 9e, rear Ottoman seating, a digital key, self-parking features, and a high-end Harman audio system. The engine options are expected to remain consistent, unless Mahindra introduces a new hybrid powertrain. The current engine lineup comprises a 2.0L turbo petrol engine and a 2.2L turbo diesel engine.
