The Mahindra XUV300 facelift will be available in February 2024
The XUV300, Mahindra’s popular compact SUV, has been on the market since 2019. Apart from a few minor mechanical upgrades, the Indian compact SUV has remained largely unchanged. For a time, the arrival of newer models from competitors swayed some sales away. Finally, Mahindra has revealed that the facelifted Mahindra XUV300 will go on sale in February 2024, giving it the boost it needs to reclaim its market share. Everything you need to know about the new Mahindra XUV300 is right here.

Mahindra XUV Design
To compete with the recently updated Tata Nexon, the Mahindra XUV300 facelift will receive a major design overhaul, particularly at the front and rear. The design will be inspired by the Mahindra BE (Born Electric) SUV lineup, which is set to hit the market in 2025. The nose will be more angular, and the drop-down LED daytime running lamp will be completely redesigned. Furthermore, the revised bumper will be flat, as will a new headlamp assembly and a new two-part grille with a larger central air intake. In addition, the 16-inch alloy wheels will be redesigned.
The new XUV300 will have a completely redesigned and smoother tailgate, which will most likely include
a full-width LED light bar. The taillights will be more streamlined and C-shaped, and the registration plate will be housed on the bumper rather than the tailgate.

Interior and features
The interior will be updated with a new center console and a redesigned panel for the AC controls. While Mahindra has not revealed any details about the new XUV300, expect it to have a segment-first panoramic sunroof and a larger 10.25-inch infotainment screen.
Engine and transmission
The Mahindra XUV300’s engine options are unlikely to change, and it will continue to be powered by a
1.5-litre diesel, 1.2-litre turbo petrol, and 1.2-litre direct injection turbo petrol (TGDI). The transmission options will be the same as the current model, a 6-speed manual gearbox and a 6-speed AMT. The new XUV300, on the other hand, will feature an Aisin-sourced 6-speed torque converter automatic with a 1.2-litre turbo-petrol (TGDI) engine, the same automatic transmission found in Skoda Kushaq, Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Slavia, and Volkswagen Virtus.
