Mahindra XUV 7XO: Mahindra has always been a name synonymous with reliability and strength in the Indian SUV market. Now, the company is preparing to introduce its flagship ICE SUV in a new style. The Mahindra XUV700 will now be launched with a new look and name, the Mahindra XUV 7XO. This vehicle is set to win the hearts of automobile enthusiasts with its world premiere on January 5, 2026.
Mahindra has given a glimpse of this SUV through its new teaser, and what is revealed is truly striking. The new DRL design, new tail-lamps, and updated grille give it an even sharper and premium look.
Stylish changes to the exterior
The teaser clearly shows that the XUV 7XO’s design has become more modern. The 7-shaped DRLs at the front make it distinctive. The trapezoidal LED headlights and integrated taillights add a futuristic touch.
The body shape of the vehicle remains largely the same as the XUV700, meaning it won’t disappoint those who prefer a strong and stylish body. Mahindra’s iconic slat pattern in the new grille also attracts more attention. Overall, the SUV looks even more premium.
A New World of Technology in the Cabin
While interior features are not fully revealed, it’s expected that the XUV 7XO will feature a large three-screen setup. This setup was previously seen in the XEV 9S and 9e. Six- and seven-seater options are expected, offering a better choice for families. Whether a 5-seater version will be available remains a mystery.
Same Power, Same Reliability
In terms of engine options, the XUV 7XO is expected to offer the same power as the XUV700. A 2.0-liter turbo petrol engine and a 2.2-liter diesel engine both with 6-speed manual and automatic gearboxes. The diesel variant will also have an AWD option, which doubles the thrilling ride.
Pricing and Competition
The Mahindra XUV 7XO will face major competition from major players. The Tata Safari, MG Hector, and Hyundai Alcazar will be its main competitors. Since the XUV700 is priced between ₹13.66 lakh and ₹23.71 lakh, the XUV 7XO is expected to be priced slightly higher, especially considering the features and design updates.
