The XUV700 is available with a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine and a 2.2-litre diesel engine offered in two different states of tune.
Both engines are paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed automatic transmission. The diesel variants also offer all-wheel drive, while the petrol variants are available only with front-wheel drive.

"My XUV700 is the perfect car for me and my family. It is spacious, luxurious and my kids love the panoramic sunroof. I have all the essential features that I need for a comfortable drive."
"All things considered the XUV700 has all the features and performance I would need from a car. However, the fuel mileage is below my expectations and I wish Mahindra had worked on this a little more."
"I absolutely love the performance of my XUV700 and it has become the go-to car for highway trips with the family. Our trips are just effortless and we arrive at our destinations without feeling tired."
"The XUV700 delivers on many fronts but doesn’t go all the way when it comes to features. There is driver side electric seat adjust but not on the co-passenger side. The ADAS features are a welcome addition."
"The SUV looks large but does not have enough space in the third row and the boot. I have a hard time convincing people to sit in the last row for long journeys."
"The XUV700 is a great family car with excellent comfort and features. The driving experience is smooth, and it's a joy for long road trips. The only downside is the fuel economy—it could be better, especially on city drives."
": The XUV700 has good space, and the comfort is top-notch. However, I feel that Mahindra could have packed in more tech features at this price point. The touchscreen system often lags, and I expected more advanced features."
" I love the performance and driving dynamics of the XUV700. It’s quick, smooth, and powerful. However, the suspension could be improved, as I noticed some thuds over small bumps, which detracts from the otherwise smooth ride."
"We bought the XUV700 mainly because we wanted a spacious family car with good safety and road presence. The second row is very comfortable, and the cabin feels quite premium for this price range. The third row is useful for kids or short city trips, but adults may not find it very comfortable on long journeys."
"The XUV700 diesel automatic is very smooth to drive and has more than enough power for highways. Overtaking is effortless, and the SUV feels stable even at higher speeds. The only thing I am not fully happy with is the mileage, especially in city traffic. If fuel economy is your main priority, check real-world mileage before finalising."
"I compared many 7-seater SUVs before buying the XUV700, and honestly, it felt like the best value for the price. The panoramic sunroof, large touchscreen, ADAS features, and powerful diesel engine make it feel premium. The on-road price is on the higher side for the top variant, but the comfort and features make it worth considering."
"The safety features were a big reason why I chose the Mahindra XUV700. The ADAS, adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, airbags, and strong build quality give a lot of confidence on highways. For anyone looking for a safe SUV under this budget, the XUV700 feels like a very strong option."
