Mahindra XUV300 Facelift: What to Anticipate

The Mahindra XUV300 has been available for purchase since 2019 in its current configuration, and a facelifted version is scheduled to be released shortly. It has been repeatedly spied on throughout testing, giving some indication of the improvements that the midlife update would contain. Here’s what to anticipate if you’ve been waiting for the XUV300 facelift

Modern Design Theory

For the redesigned XUV300, Mahindra will be using a new design language that will be consistent with its next line of Born Electric (BE) vehicles. Numerous spy photos that revealed fang-shaped LED DRLs up front and attached taillights, as seen on the BE.05 concept, have already confirmed this. Redesigned alloy wheels and adjusted bumpers are only a couple of the external modifications. Rather than being a completely new design, it is more of an extension of the Mahindra design that already exists.

A More Modern Cabin

Inside, the XUV300 will have a reworked dashboard with repositioned and redesigned central air conditioning vents, a new temperature control panel featuring rear air conditioning vents, and two new screens (one for instruments and one for infotainment). On the facelifted XUV300, Mahindra is even expected to give new seat upholstery.

New Set Of Features

As previously stated, the revised XUV400 EV is expected to give the 2024 XUV300 two new, larger digital displays (10.25 inches each) as well as a panoramic sunroof that ranks first in the segment. Push-button start/stop, cruise control, wireless phone charging, dual-zone air conditioning, and ventilated front seats are possible additional features.

Mahindra is anticipated to outfit it with advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) and a 360-degree camera as safety technology. Electronic stability control (ESC), a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and six airbags (as standard) could also be added to the redesigned SUV.

What Is It Going To Get Inside?

Mahindra most likely plans to provide the new XUV300 with the same choices for gasoline and diesel engines as the current model. Two of these are a 1.5-liter diesel engine (117 PS/300 Nm) and a 1.2-liter turbo-petrol engine (110 PS/200 Nm). Either a 6-speed AMT or a 6-speed manual transmission is available for both.

A T-GDi (direct-injection) turbo-petrol engine (130 PS/up to 250 Nm) is also an option for the XUV300. This engine is only compatible with a 6-speed manual transmission. We believe Mahindra may switch out the existing AMT for an automated torque converter unit.

Pricing, Rivals, and Anticipated Launch

The facelifted Mahindra XUV300 is expected to be on sale in March of this year. Pricing is anticipated to start at Rs 8.5 lakh (ex-showroom). The new XUV300 will rekindle competition from vehicles such as the Hyundai Venue, Maruti Brezza, Kia Sonet, and Tata Nexon.
