One of the biggest reasons behind Mahindra XUV 3XO’s success in India is its updated design. The front fascia of the SUV features edgy headlamps, fierce LED DRLs, and a segmented grille. The profile of the SUV is highlighted by its dark chrome alloy wheels. The C-shaped tail lamps at the back mimic the design of the DRLs up front. These tail lamps are joined by a light bar.
The cabin and dashboard of the Mahindra XUV 3XO look similar to the XUV400. The SUV is equipped with features like a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, another 10.25-inch screen for the digital instrument cluster, a panoramic sunroof, a 7-speaker Harmon Kardon audio system, wireless charging, and more. One of the biggest highlights of the XUV 3XO is the Level 2 ADAS package.

The 1.2-litre turbo petrol puts out 110hp. The 1.5-litre diesel engine generates a power output of 117hp. These engines can be mated to manual and AMT gearboxes.
