These Mahindra XUV700 models are now cheaper

Last month, the price of the top-of-the-line Mahindra XUV700 model was reduced by over Rs 2 lakh. The Indian automaker has now slashed the prices of the entry-level and mid-segment models of the popular SUV. The move will help the company increase the model’s appeal among Indian car buyers. The price cut announcement comes just in time for the festive season, one of the most important seasons of the year when manufacturers see a significant increase in sales. Mahindra expects the price cut to lead to an increase in sales of the XUV700. Read on to know the price details of the various models of the XUV700.

As part of the latest price revision, the company has reduced the prices of the base and mid-range variants of the SUV, both petrol and diesel powered.

The biggest price cut has been seen on the seven-seater AX5 Diesel AT variant of the Mahindra XUV700 SUV, which is now priced at Rs 70,000 less than before. The model is now priced at Rs 20.39 lakh (ex-showroom). The prices of the seven-seater AX3 Diesel AT and five-seater AX5 Diesel AT variants of the XUV700 have been reduced by Rs 20,000.
