In the latest spy shots of the upcoming Mahindra XUV300 facelift, the C-shaped LED taillamps are visible. XUV300 is among Mahindra’s best-selling products due to its dynamic performance as a compact SUV. It has maintained a strong presence in this segment for quite some time. It proudly features the most powerful turbo petrol engine in its class, providing 130 hp. Nevertheless, as the competition in this category continues to grow, the Indian automotive giant is preparing to launch a modern version of the XUV300.

Specs
We don’t suppose there will be any changes to the engine and gearbox options. It will have the popular 1.2-litre 3-cylinder turbo petrol engine, in two versions – one with 110 hp and 200 Nm, and the other with 130 hp and 230 Nm of power and torque. Additionally, there’s a 1.5-litre diesel engine that produces 115 hp and 300 Nm. Both of these engine choices will provide the option of a 6-speed manual transmission or an AMT gearbox. It will be interesting to see whether Mahindra decides to replace this AMT with a torque converter automatic transmission. Currently, the XUV300 is priced between Rs 7.99 lakh and Rs 14.76 lakh, ex-showroom. The facelift is expected to come at a slightly higher cost than these prices.
