As per the document, the XUV700 is expected to get an MX (E) Diesel MT variant. It will be positioned above the base MX trim and will be available in a 5-seater configuration.

At present, the XUV700 is available in five trims: MX, AX3, AX5, AX7 and AX7 L. However, there’s a massive gap between the base MX and the AX3 variant, which gets high-end features like dual 10.25-inch screens, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay; among others.

The introduction of the new MX (E) trim would give customers to option to have a decently equipped SUV without having to shell out an additional Rs 2.43 lakh for the AX3 variant.

The XUV700 comes with two engine options, that are expected to receive their RDE upgrades soon. The 2.0-litre mStallion turbo-petrol produces 197 BHP and 380 Nm and the 2.2-litre mHawk diesel engine makes 182 BHP and 420 Nm (MT) / 450 Nm (AT). Both engines come with a choice of a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission.

It's frustrating to see Mahindra has time to bring new cars like Scorpio N and new variants like MX E but no responsibility to give promised features(android auto) to existing MX customers.

Government takes biggest piece of money we spend on cars in the form of GST, road tax, GST on insurance etc. But never hold car manufacturers accountable.

Hope apart from RDE compliance and MX E variant, they update existing line up for E.g cruise control on AX5 variant. For such big car and also expensive costing one, adding these basics should help people with better buying choices, considering cost variations are in Lakhs from the day of booking to day of purchase. I started with AX7L D AT now with price rise and RTA tax changes, have to settle for AX5 D AT, which still shows July 2023 as delivery timeline.
