Mahindra XUV700 Facelift Spotted Testing: New Headlights and Hybrid Powertrain in the Works?

The Mahindra XUV700, a key player in the D-segment, is undergoing a cosmetic refresh. Spy shots reveal a test mule, heavily camouflaged, suggesting an upcoming facelift. While the overall design appears similar to the current model, significant changes are anticipated. The front fascia is expected to be redesigned, and new projector headlamps with round DRLs have been observed. Speculation also surrounds a possible new hybrid powertrain. The car might feature a redesigned front fascia with a bolder new grille, and potentially include features like a triple-screen setup, a dashboard inspired by the XUV 9e, rear Ottoman seating, a digital key, self-park assist, and an upgraded Harman audio system. Powertrain options are likely to remain the same, with the possibility of a hybrid variant. The current engines include a 2.0L turbo petrol and a 2.2L turbo diesel.
