Mahindra XUV300 powertrain, specs

The XUV300 is available in five trims – W2, W4, W6, W8 and W8(O) – and five powertrain options. The engine options include a 110hp, 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine; a 117hp, 1.5-litre diesel; and a 131hp, 1.2-litre direct-injection turbo-petrol unit. The TGDi is available only with a manual, while the other two are also available with an AMT gearbox option.

Mahindra XUV3XO: what to expect?

With the upcoming update, the XUV300 will receive a thorough cosmetic makeover inspired by Mahindra's BE range of electric SUVs. On the inside, the dashboard will also be updated with a larger touchscreen and lots of new features including a new first-in-class panoramic sunroof, and though it will carry forward the existing engine options, it is expected to get a new torque convertor automatic for the TGDi engine.
