MAHINDRA HAS GIVEN THE XUV300 COMPACT SUV A PROPER REVAMP AND INTRODUCER IT AS THE XUV 3XO

- RAHUL GHOSH

The Mahindra XUV 3XO gets a properly modern design well suited to the needs of the day. The front end comes with big light panels which incorporate C-type LED DRLs that give it an aggressive look. The blacked-out grille section also looks cool and a closer view reveals small elements on it which add to the character of the SUV. The front end also comes with cameras and sensors all around as it now gets features like Level 2 ADAS and even blind spot cameras. In profile, the silhouette of the erstwhile 300 remains. However, there is a generous dollop of cladding added. Wheels now are 17-inch units on the top AX7L variant and they sure look good. The rear end gets a connected tail light panel.
