Specification
The Mahindra XUV300 gets LED projector headlamps and LED taillamps. Mahindra will be offering the new SUV300 in both petrol and diesel engine options. This could include the 1.5-litre diesel unit that is likely to make around 120 bhp, and a newly developed 1.2-litre G80 turbocharged petrol engine.
Interior
The XUV300 is based on the SsangYong Tivoli. But, every single body panel on the small SUV is brand new. To make the XUV300 duck under the 4-metre mark, Mahindra has chopped nearly 200mm from the overall length of the Tivoli. This does make the rear-third of the car look a bit odd. From the front, the rectangular headlamps, the chrome-studded grille and the daytime running lamps establish an instant connect with big brother XUV500. Features include projector headlamps, machine-finished 17-inch alloy wheels, a dual-tone colour scheme and LED brake lamps
Engine
Mahindra XUV300 gets a 1.2-litre petrol and a 1.5-litre diesel engine, which is essentially a de-tuned version of the engine on the Marazzo. We drove the diesel variant, which pumps out 115 bhp at 3,750 rpm while peak torque output is 300 Nm at 1,500 - 2,500 rpm, which is best-in-class! And that's the kicker! The moment your foot steps on the throttle, you get a beautiful swell of torque which is so handy, when you are driving on traffic laden roads.
