New-Gen Mahindra XUV500: What You Need to Know!

After launching the XUV700, Mahindra unfortunately stopped making the XUV500 because it didn’t sell as well as they hoped. They said it’s just temporary, and now they’re working on a new version of the XUV500. Recently, people spotted it being tested in Chennai, and it looks a bit smaller than before, around 4.3 to 4.4 meters long. They want to make it cheaper than the XUV700 but still better than the XUV300, to compete with cars like the Hyundai Creta.

We can expect the exterior to take some inspiration from the XUV300 and the XUV700 SUV like new LED Headlamps, and connected arrow LED Tail-lamps, new 17-inch alloy wheel designs, coupe roofline, and dual-tone bumpers both front and rear. Interiors however may look similar to the XUV700 such as seamless dual 10.25-inch displays – one for infotainment and one for Digital Cluster, new XUV700-borrowed steering wheel, panoramic sunroof on top, slimmer AC vents, leather upholstery for the cabin, dual-tone theme for dashboard, and more.

The new XUV500 is expected to sport have two engine options: 1.5 L Turbo Diesel and 1.5 L Turbo petrol, both with a choice of 6 Speed Manual (MT) and Automatic (AT) Gearbox. The SUV will also come loaded with numerous features like ventilated seats, a wireless charging pad, 10.25-inch infotainment system and Digital Cockpit Cluster Dual-zone Climate Control, Drive Modes, Powered Driver Seat, and so much more.

Even in safety, Mahindra will equip the XUV500 with features such as Level 2 ADAS, 360 Surround View Camera, Front and Rear Parking Sensors, TPMS, Hill Descent Control, Hill Assist, and few additional features.

We don’t know exactly when it will come out, but probably sometime in late 2024. When it does, it’ll compete with lots of other SUVs like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, and others.
