The side profile will remain the same, and will have non-functional roof rails, and body-coloured door handles. The rear will feature new LED taillamps and a LED light bar for a connected light sequence.
The XUV300 Facelift on the other hand, is going to get a new free-standing 10.25-inch infotainment system above the sleeker AC vents and redesigned dashboard, and below the AC vents is the round dial to control the infotainment system or HVAC.
