2024 Mahindra XUV300: With panoramic sunroof, six-speed manual and automatic gearbox, this vehicle can give tough competition to many in the segment

2024 Mahindra XUV300: The XUV300 has yet to realise its full potential in compared to top sellers like the XUV700, Scorpio N, and Thar. Despite constant sales, the XUV300 frequently falls short of other well-liked sub-4 metre SUVs such the Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, Maruti Brezza, and Hyundai Venue. With the facelift version of the XUV300, which is anticipated to come next year, things should get better. In recent months, test mules have been seen frequently. Mahindra will probably incorporate a number of best-in-class and segment-first features to enhance the XUV300's value offer.

With panoramic sunroof

The Mahindra XUV300 currently only has a single-pane sunroof. All of the well-liked sub-4 metre SUVs are configured similarly. Tata Nexon and Kia Sonet are also preparing mid-lifecycle improvements, although it's unclear that they would include the panoramic sunroof option. This would enable the XUV300 to have a panoramic sunroof first in its segment. It seems like Mahindra intends to make the panoramic sunroof a standard feature across the board for all of its SUV models. That implies that this feature will also be added to the next version of the all-electric XUV400.

2024 Mahindra XUV300: How the rivals will react?

Sales of the XUV300 facelift will determine how competitors will react. Competitors might introduce the panoramic sunroof variation if there is greater demand for it. Since most OEMs offer a panoramic sunroof option with their larger capacity SUVs, there shouldn't be a problem. Mahindra is probably going to use an aggressive pricing strategy when the XUV300 facelift first goes on sale in order to make it seem like a truly unbeatable offer.

Know about the other things

For the XUV300 facelift, it's expected that the engine selections will remain the same. Two 1.2-liter turbocharged petrol and one 1.5-liter turbodiesel are available. The relevant performance figures are 110 hp/200 Nm, 131 hp/230 (250) Nm, and 117 hp/300 Nm. For all three engines, there are six-speed manual and six-speed automatic gearbox options. It is unknown if Mahindra will switch out the AMT for a torque converter unit. This change appears pertinent given that the majority of competing sub-4 metre SUVs have a more sophisticated automatic transmission.
