Here's the walkaround video of the XUV 7XO. The base prices start at ₹13.66 Lakh (Ex-showroom).

Mahindra has announced that deliveries of the AX7, AX7T and AX7L variants will begin first. Lower trims, including AX, AX3 and AX5, will be delivered starting April 2026.

The Mahindra XUV 7XO is offered in six variants: AX, AX3, AX5, AX7, AX7T and AX7L.

The top spec AX7L brings luxury features and amenities such as the Harmon Kardon sound system with Dolby Vision and Atmos, front and rear wireless charging with active cooling, ventilated seats all around with softer foam and plusher padding, as well as an 8-way powered co-driver seat with Boss Mode.

The Mahindra XUV 7XO will feature three 12.3-inch displays in the form of a coast-to-coast 31.24 cm display behind a single pane of glass. These panels serve as the digital instrument cluster, central infotainment system and a dedicated front passenger screen.

With its refreshed design and feature-rich cabin, the XUV 7XO will sit above the Scorpio-N and alongside the XUV700’s existing customer base, targeting buyers looking for a more premium SUV experience.

The XUV 7XO test drives will begin on January 8, with bookings to open on January 14, 2026. Deliveries are slated to begin on January 14 for the AX7, AX7T, and AX7L variants. The AX, AX3, and AX5 variants will be delivered in April 2026.

The Mahindra XUV 7XO gets BYOD, 8-way powered co-driver’s seat with Boss Mode and rear wireless charging, as well as an Alexa and ChatGPT integration. The SUV treats its occupants with ventilated seats, multi-zone ambient lights, a panoramic sunroof, as well as a 16-speaker Harmon Kardon sound system.

The Mahindra XUV 7XO starts at ₹13.66 lakh (ex-showroom) for the base petrol variant, while the base diesel model comes in at ₹14.96 lakh (ex-showroom).

The top-spec AX7L with the diesel engine and manual transmission is listed at an introductory ex-showroom price tag of ₹22.47 lakh. This is limited to the first 40,000 customers. The AX7 diesel-manual variant is priced at ₹18.95 lakh (ex-showroom).

The Mahindra XUV 7XO is touted as offering the first in India integration of Alexa and ChatGPT. With this functionality, the SUV aims to enable smarter hands-free communication for a more intuitive in-car experience.

Mahindra claims the DAVINCI damper tech enables best-in-class vehicle dynamics while ensuring low noise levels. The company further claims that, with the new suspension system, the XUV 7XO can achieve the lowest noise levels in its category, be it with the diesel engine or petrol.

The XUV 7XO will feature an updated suspension system with Mahindra’s new DAVINCI damper technology that promises better body control and ride plushness. The company showcased the new system through a video clip where the SUV drove through a series of speed bumps with a pyramid of glasses arranged on its bonnet. At the end of the test, the glasses remained intact in their original position without having spilt much water.

The XUV 7XO is expected to be priced in the same range as the XUV700. Ex-showroom prices are likely to fall between ₹15 lakh and ₹25 lakh, depending on the variant.

The Mahindra XUV 7XO is essentially a new iteration of the XUV700. While the SUV continues with the same platform, engines and overall proportions, Mahindra has introduced extensive visual changes on the outside and a significantly upgraded cabin aimed at improving the premiumness of the SUV and renewing its appeal among buyers.

Mahindra is all set to officially launch the XUV 7XO in India today. The SUV is a new iteration of the popular XUV700 and is expected to carry meaningful design, feature and interior updates while retaining its proven mechanical package. The official launch event will commence shortly.

Pre-bookings for the Mahindra XUV 7XO are already open at a token amount of ₹21,000. The SUV is being officially launched today, January 5, with the launch event to start shortly.

Mahindra is not expected to make changes to the XUV 7XO's chassis and suspension setup, but they are likely to refine it as the SUV enters a new phase. The key focus of the update remains on its design, technology and interiors.

Mahindra will be offering 6-speed manual and automatic gearbox options regardless of the engine. The AWD diesel variants will likely remain on offer on the XUV 7XO.

There are no mechanical changes on the XUV 7XO. It continues with the 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine and the 2.2-litre diesel engine carried over from the XUV700.

Mahindra’s connected car tech will continue on the XUV 7XO, offering vehicle monitoring, remote functions and ADAS visualisation for more intuitive driver assistance.

The XUV 7XO is bringing a 540-degree camera system that combines a traditional 360-degree surround view camera with additional underbody and blind-spot visualisation, improving visibility in tight conditions.

The XUV 7XO will continue to priotise safety as a key aspect of its package. The SUV is expected to offer a comprehensive Level 2+ ADAS suite along with multiple airbags, ESC, hill assist and front and rear parking sensors.

The driver gets a new two-spoke steering wheel with the Mahindra logo, similar to the brand’s newer models. This replaces the older multi-spoke unit seen on the XUV700.

Rear occupants are further treated to a Boss Mode feature, which allows them to electrically adjust the front passenger seat for added legroom. This is a segment-first feature for Mahindra’s ICE SUV lineup.

On the tech front, the XUV 7XO will bring wireless charging, dual-zone climate control, ventilated seats, powered front seats with memory, ambient lighting and a panoramic sunroof. Second-row passengers get slide and recline functionality.

The SUV will be equipped with a 16-speaker Harman Kardon sound system with Dolby Atmos. Mahindra is also offering BYOD (Bring Your Own Display) mounts, allowing occupants to attach additional devices.
