New Mahindra XUV 500 Launched in India - A Style of Its Own

Mahindra and Mahindra, India's leading auto manufacturer has launched a new wave soft-roader, the Mahindra XUV 500. The Mahindra XUV 500 SUV epitomizes style and substance and takes the Mahindra Brand to new heights. The brand new SUV is available in three variants namely W6 2wheel drive, W8 2 wheel drive and W8 AWD available in BSIV versions. The new and refined mHawk 140, Direct injection diesel engine is powerful and generates 138 bhp of power and 330 NM of torque. The 6-speed transmission delivers the ultimate blend of performance and fuel economy.

Mahindra XUV 500 offers unmatched performance, style, technology, safety and features. The aerodynamic body static-bending projector headlamps, and LED parking lamps and racing-inspired twin exhaust are the other features. It is the best when it comes to owning a completely homegrown automaker as 90% of the vehicle is tooled out of India.

This is the first time ever that Mahindra's have tried the monocoque body construction and it is bound to be well received. The XUV has been tested for nearly 24 lakh kilometers and the auto giant went through 250 prototypes before finally launching it. The most interesting part for investors is that the amortisation cycle would be shorter if the vehicle is a hit. Mahindra XUV is the first major launch after Mahindra Xylo and how it fares in the Indian market, only time will tell.
