Mahindra SA has confirmed it will officially open the order book for the all-new XUV700 set to land on our shores later this month. From November 15 customers can put their names down for one of these luxurious SUVs at any Mahindra dealership. 

As a replacement for the XUV500 the new XUV700 promises increased levels of luxury as well as improved fit and finish. Interior tech has also been bumped up, and customers can look forward to standout features such as a large digital dashboard that merges the instrument cluster and infotainment system into one unit à la BMW's Curved Display. Another welcome addition is the inclusion of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

All XUV700 models come fitted with a digital dashboard as standard.

From launch Mahindra will be offering three XUV700 model derivatives, all of which are to be powered by the Indian marque's latest 2.0l four-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine tuned to deliver a respectable 149kW and 380Nm worth of torque. This is delivered to the front wheels via either a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. 

Customers keen on purchasing the XUV700 can visit the Mahindra website to learn more about this new SUV as well as add their name to the growing XUV700 mailing list.
