Ever since it made its debut in 2021, the Mahindra XUV700 has captured the imagination of Indian SUV lovers. Now, the 2025 version continues to build on that momentum, offering more style, better tech, and the same tough attitude Indian roads demand. Whether you’re navigating crowded lanes, cruising on highways, or escaping to the hills, the XUV700 2025 feels like it was made for everyday Indian life.
A Bold Design Made for the Indian Street Scene
The updated XUV700 brings in sharper styling that’s hard to ignore. The front end now sports a more pronounced grille, flanked by sleek LED headlights that make night drives and foggy mornings safer and more stylish. At around 4.7 meters in length, the SUV strikes a sweet spot big enough to look imposing, yet compact enough to handle tight turns and busy city parking.
Side profiles are enhanced by fresh alloy wheels likely 18-inch options on the higher trims and roof rails that hint at weekend getaways. At the rear, the 2025 version introduces connected LED tail lamps that give it a premium edge. Available in shades like Midnight Black and Everest White, it blends perfectly into India’s dynamic urban and rural backdrops.
Power That Matches Its Personality
The XUV700 doesn’t just look strong it backs it up with real power. Buyers have two solid engine choices. The 2.2-liter mHawk diesel engine offers 182 bhp and a hefty 450 Nm of torque, ideal for overtaking, hill climbs, or hauling family gear. On the other hand, the 2.0-liter turbo-petrol feels smoother and more city-friendly with 197 bhp on offer.
Both engines pair well with a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission, and for those who love taking the path less travelled, the diesel automatic with all-wheel drive adds that extra capability. Despite its size and power, mileage figures around 15–17 km/l make it relatively efficient for Indian conditions.
Interiors That Balance Tech and Comfort
Step inside, and you’re welcomed by a cabin that feels premium without being pretentious. Mahindra seems to have borrowed cues from its electric range, offering a futuristic triple-screen setup. There’s a 10.25-inch infotainment screen, a digital instrument cluster, and even an additional screen for rear passengers something kids will especially appreciate on longer journeys.
With options for 6 or 7 seats, you can fold the last row flat to increase boot space for road trips or shopping hauls. Features like leather upholstery, wireless charging, a panoramic sunroof, and dual-zone climate control ensure that every ride feels just right.
Safety That’s Built In, Not Bolted On
Safety is no longer an option, and the XUV700 makes that clear. The SUV includes Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, offering features like lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control, and forward collision warnings. You also get seven airbags, a 360-degree camera, electronic stability control, and traction modes in the AWD variant for those unpredictable monsoon roads or weekend escapes to the hills.
Add to that a strong chassis and a solid crash-test record, and the XUV700 becomes more than just a family SUV it becomes a family protector.
Practicality for Real Indian Lifestyles
The XUV700 isn’t just about features and flair it understands Indian needs. From the ability to handle pothole-ridden roads to enough ground clearance for rural drives, it’s as practical as it is plush. Long waiting periods may soon ease with increased production, and the wide network of Mahindra service centers adds to peace of mind.
It also fits the modern multitasker’s lifestyle easy enough to drive to work in the city, strong enough to carry luggage for five, and smart enough to keep everyone connected and entertained on the move.
A Worthy Upgrade for 2025
The Mahindra XUV700 2025 doesn’t try to reinvent the wheel it simply refines what already works. It offers great value, excellent performance, and a feature set that punches above its weight. While rivals may come close in specific areas, few offer the same blend of power, comfort, and practicality at this level.
If you’re in the market for an SUV that does it all daily drives, weekend adventures, family road trips the XUV700 deserves a serious look. It’s not just a car; it’s a companion for the Indian journey
