Mahindra XUV300 Facelift Spied Testing

The Mahindra XUV300 facelift that was spotted testing was wrapped in heavy camouflage. However, the spy shots reveal a few interesting details, such as new LED headlamps and C-shaped LED DRLs as seen on the concept version of the upcoming BE.05 electric SUV. The headlamps are likely to be smaller than before and offer LED projection. The fog lamps are likely to move higher up the front bumper while the C-shaped LED DRLs will fall in line with Mahindra’s upcoming BE range of electric SUVs. Expect a revised front grille and bumper too.

The side profile of the XUV300 facelift is likely to remain largely unchanged. However, we could expect Mahindra to equip the facelift with a new set of alloy wheels. At the rear, Mahindra are likely to give the XUV300 facelift a connected LED tail lamp setup, which is all the rage these days. The spy shots reveal a C-shaped lighting signature for the tail lamps as well. The rear bumper continues to end quite abruptly to meet sub-4m passenger car requirements. The tailgate could get an update as well.

Mahindra XUV300 Facelift To Get Larger Touchscreen

The latest spy shots of the Mahindra XUV300 facelift reveal the dashboard and other interior details. While the steering wheel is the same as before, featuring controls for various functions, the dashboard has been revamped to accommodate a larger touchscreen infotainment system. The spy shot shows a new touchscreen that is likely to measure 10-inches in size and it features a rotary knob for volume control with physical buttons on either side for various functions.. The central AC vents are now placed under the new touchscreen. The AC controls on the centre console look the same as before, with physical buttons, while the XUV300’s major rival, the Tata Nexon, has opted for haptic-based controls. Meanwhile, we could expect Mahindra to equip the XUV300 facelift with an all-digital instrument cluster to take on the new Tata Nexon.

We expect the Mahindra XUV300 facelift to feature the same powertrain options as the current model. The XUV300 is currently powered by 3 engine options – a 1.2L turbo petrol with multipoint fuel injection, a 1.2L turbo petrol with direct injection and a 1.5L turbo diesel engine.

The 1.2L turbo petrol with multipoint fuel injection puts out 110PS of power and 200Nm of torque and comes with a 6-speed manual transmission. The 1.2L turbo petrol with direct injection produces 130PS of power and 230Nm of torque and comes with 2 transmission options – a 6-speed manual and a 6-speed automated manual transmission (AMT). The 1.5-litre turbo diesel generates 117PS of power and 300Nm of torque. It is offered with the 6-speed MT and 6-speed AMT.

When launched, the XUV300 will continue to rival the Tata Nexon, Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, Maruti Arena Brezza, Nissan Magite and Renault Kiger. Currently, the XUV300 is priced between Rs. 8.0 lakh and Rs. 14.75 lakh (ex-showroom)
