The Mahindra XUV700 has reached this production milestone in under three years since its launch. It now offers a total of nine colour options, some featuring a dual-tone black roof. The SUV is powered by a choice of engines: a 2-litre turbo-petrol and a 2.2-litre diesel, each paired with corresponding transmission options. Available in 5-, 6-, and 7-seater configurations depending on the variant, its price ranges from Rs 13.99 lakh to Rs 26.99 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
The Mahindra XUV700 has achieved a significant milestone, surpassing the production mark of 2 lakh units in just 33 months since its launch. Although there isn't a limited edition variant to commemorate this achievement, Mahindra has introduced two fresh colour choices for its highly popular mid-size SUV. Here are all the details:
New Colours For The XUV700
Mahindra, the Indian automaker, has unveiled two additional colour options for the XUV700: Deep Forest Green and the exclusive Burnt Sienna Brown. Meanwhile, the military-inspired green hue is also available on other Mahindra models such as the Thar, Scorpio N, and XUV 3XO.
Here is the complete list of colours available for the Mahindra XUV700:

In terms of safety features, the vehicle offers up to seven airbags, an electronic stability program (ESP), ISOFIX anchors, a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and a 360-degree camera.
