Mahindra launched the XUV 3XO in April 2024 as the facelifted version of the XUV300, with a redesigned exterior and interior, along with new convenience and safety features.

Currently, the XUV 3XO is available with three engine options spread across 11 trims. Among these, which variant should you choose? Let us find out.

Which variant of the Mahindra XUV 3XO should you buy?
AX5L is recommended, but the RevX Edge (O) is a good option for budget buyers
The Mahindra XUV 3XO’s higher-spec AX5L offers a fine balance between value for money and a loaded feature list. The most significant misses in this trim are a panoramic sunroof and a Harman Kardon sound system, but it is still loaded with modern-day features. However, if you want a diesel engine, the AX7 is the option to go for, which also equips it with features missing on the AX5L. For those on a tight budget, the mid-spec RevX Edge (O) is the best value-for-money trim in the SUV’s line-up.
