Design
The Mahindra XUV700 is a completely new vehicle, however, it shares components with the XUV500 and XUV300. The overall style is crisp, yet it looks to be a touch too cluttered to be considered coherent.
The front has a dynamic, aggressive, and luxurious appearance with double ‘C' shaped headlights with LED DRLs, a broad grille with vertical slats, and the new Mahindra logo.
There is enough grip available, and the ESP and traction control keep things safe in a variety of situations.
The basic yet beautiful alloy wheels and the XUV500-like waistline over the rear wheel arch give the car a genuine ‘Big SUV' look on the side, and the sharp design continues at the back with sleek LED taillights and a tailgate with a large shape.
Interior Features
Mahindra XUV700 will keep passengers satisfied because it has a lot to offer. The single-element screen with two displays, comprising the instrument cluster and the infotainment screen, is the main visual appeal.
The Adreno OS-powered infotainment system provides a fully connected experience, with an integrated sim card and access to a slew of functions that can be controlled via your smartphone.
Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are supported, and Alexa voice commands are available. The Sony sound system has outstanding sound quality from the speakers, and it is reasonable to claim that the sound quality is among the finest in the class.
Other Exciting Features
Climate control, wireless smartphone charging, a 360-degree camera, a blind spot monitoring system, a smart air filter, and the segment's biggest panoramic sunroof are among the many features.
The material and build quality are the finest and the piano black finish in the Centre console and steering wheel attracts dust and fingerprints, and the craftsmanship might be better.
Possible Versions Available
The XUV700 will be available in five and seven-seat configurations, but there will be no six-seat model for the time being. The space in the middle row is adequate, with enough legroom, knee room, and headroom. The seat bench has enough padding, strong side support, and enough breadth to accommodate three persons.
There is plenty of storage space throughout the cabin, with several cubby holes and reasonably sized door pockets. Third-row space is mediocre, and because the seat is very low, occupants' knees will be pointed upwards with minimal under-thigh support.
Engine AND Performance Of Xuv700
The Mahindra XUV700 has a major edge over its competitors. A new 2.0 L petrol engine with 197hp and 380Nm of torque between 1,750 and 3,000rpm is one of the powertrain options.
There are also two diesel engines to select from, one with 153hp of power and the other with 184hp. Both diesel and gasoline engines come with manual and automatic transmissions.
The XUV700 is rock stable in a straight line at early triple-digit speeds, and it doesn't hate driving through bends at high speed.

There is enough grip available, and the ESP and traction control keep things safe in a variety of situations.
The brake pedal is the same way, feeling spongy and lifeless despite decent braking performance. So, I believe that most needs are satisfied for the broader consumer base of an SUV like the XUV700.
Handling And Suspension Of Xuv700
As a spacious and comfortable SUV, one would expect the XUV700 to provide a decent combination of comfort and dynamics, and it exceeds expectations. Broken surfaces and potholes are easily dealt with, keeping passengers mostly insulated and comfortable.
Even at medium and high speeds on undulating ground, there is a little side-to-side vertical movement, resulting in a smooth ride. The suspension is geared more toward comfort, which is ideal for city driving, but there is no sacrifice in terms of handling.

Safety And Advanced Driver Assistance System Technology
The Mahindra XUV700 safety package is class-leading and miles ahead of the competition, particularly in the Active safety category. This is an Indian carmaker's first production vehicle with Level 1 autonomous driving technology.

The ADAS system includes adaptive cruise control, automated emergency braking, tiredness recognition, lane aid, and blind-spot detection.
Using cameras and radars, the XUV700 may slow down when approaching a slower vehicle and accelerate after the impediment is removed or the lane has been altered.
When a collision is near, the system alerts the driver via audible alarms and vibrations on the steering wheel.
Conclusion
Finally, I'll conclude my narrative by noting that the Mahindra XUV700 is a sign of pride, not merely an excellent example of a Make in India car. For me, the XUV700 is undoubtedly the most sophisticated vehicle ever produced by an Indian automaker.
