The deletion of features would have made sense if Mahindra had decreased the prices accordingly. However, with every cut in features, Mahindra have hiked the prices of the XUV300 range. Currently, the XUV300 range starts from Rs. 8.16 lakh and goes up to Rs. 13.67 lakh ex-showroom. If we recall, Mahindra launched the XUV300 in 2019. The XUV300 range was priced from Rs. 7.9 lakh ex-showroom. At launch, Mahindra didn’t have diesel-AMT variants on offer. The diesel automatic option was announced later, ahead of the petrol automatic option.

Despite the substantial deletion of features, the XUV300 offers some notable features:

• 7.0-inch infotainment with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
• Automatic headlights
• Rain-sensing wipers
• Electric sunroof
• Telematics
• Dual-zone climate control
• Steering response modes
• Customisable colour for MID
• Tyre direction indicator
• 6 airbags
• Rear disc brakes

The Mahindra XUV300 comes with two engine options – a 1,2L turbo petrol and a 1.5L turbo diesel. The petrol engine produces 120PS of power at 5000rpm and 200Nm of torque between 2000rpm and 3500rpm. The diesel engine produces 117PS of power at 3750rpm and 300Nm of torque between 1500rpm and 2500rpm. Both engines are available with the option of a 6-speed manual and 6-speed AMT. Mahindra could soon add gasoline direct injection to the petrol engine, which will increase the power output to 130PS.

The Mahindra XUV300 takes on the likes of the Hyundai Venue, Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, Maruti Suzuki Brezza, Nissan Magnite, and Renault Kiger. The Mahindra XUV300 is priced from Rs. 8.16 lakh to Rs. 13.67 lakh ex-showroom.
