Competitors in the large SUV sectors have been launching strong contenders to challenge the XUV 700’s position that it has held since its launch. Here is the list of Solid SUV’s that serve as solid alternatives to Mahindra’s XUV700:

There are two engine options available for the XUV700: a 2.0-liter petrol and a 2.2-liter diesel. The diesel engine produces either 155 or 185 horsepower, depending on the type, while the petrol engine produces 200 horsepower. The Global NCAP crash test gave it a 5-star grade as well.
The Napoli Black colour, memory ORVMs, and ventilated front seats were among the new features that the business unveiled with the XUV700 2024 model in January.
