Mahindra XUV300 – This compact SUV is specifically designed for those who seek powerful performance, safety, and comfort. Its powerful engine and premium features make it a reliable choice in its segment.
This car offers excellent control and stability on all road conditions, from city driving to highway rides. Its safety features and interior quality also make it a good choice as a family car.
Design: A New Level of Aggression
This car will surprise you from the first glance. Mahindra has borrowed its design language from the XUV.e8 and e9 concepts, and it’s absolutely futuristic. The C-shaped LED DRL signature at the front glows like a sword at night. The body is completely muscular – broad shoulders, 20-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels,
flush door handles, a coupe-style roofline, and connected LED tail lamps at the rear. Overall, this car looks like something between a Range Rover Velar and a BMW X7 – but the price? We’ll tell you later, but first, take heart.
Interiors: The new definition of luxury
The moment you get inside, you’ll feel like you’re sitting in a Mercedes worth Rs. 80-90 lakh. Triple screen setup – 12.3-inch driver display + 12.3-inch infotainment + 12.3-inch co-driver screen. New generation AdrenoX, Level-2+ ADAS, 360° camera, panoramic sunroof, ventilated and massage seats, Sony’s 16-speaker 3D sound system, 256 colors of ambient lighting, and most importantly – rear captain seats with electric recline and ottoman feature! This means the pillion rider will travel like a king.
Performance: The Electric Storm
This is where the real game begins. The Mahindra XUV700 EV will come in two variants:
- Single Motor RWD – 230 hp, 380 Nm of torque, 0-100 in just 8.5 seconds
- Dual Motor AWD – 394 hp, 680 Nm of torque, 0-100 in just 4.9 seconds!
This means it’ll beat the Fortuner’s 204 hp diesel engine in a race. And best of all, it’s completely silent. No vibrations, no engine noise. Just the rustle of the wind and the rolling sound of tires.
The car is available in both petrol and diesel engine options. The petrol engine is a 1.2-liter turbocharged motor that offers smooth and responsive driving. The diesel engine is available as a 1.5-liter unit that is known for its superior power and fuel economy. This engine delivers good performance even at low RPMs while maintaining stability on the highway.

Speaking of EMIs, depending on the down payment and bank interest rate, monthly installments can be quite affordable. This also provides an easy financing option for families and new car buyers.
Now, let’s get to the real deal. The Mahindra XUV700 EV is priced starting at just ₹28-30 lakh (ex-showroom)! Even the top variant is under ₹45 lakh (ex-showroom). That means it’s cheaper than the Fortuner’s base model (₹37-38 lakh), yet even more feature-rich, faster, more luxurious, and more eco-friendly.
The end of Fortuner?
The Toyota Fortuner reigned supreme for 15 years. But times have changed. Those who used to spend 40 lakh rupees to buy a car with 10 km/h and outdated features can now find a car with double the range, twice the luxury, twice the performance, and ten times more mileage for the same price. Rising diesel prices, pollution, and the EV era by 2030 – all are in Mahindra’s favor.
