Mahindra XUV500 facelift price, variants explained

The updated 2018 XUV500 has been introduced in the market by Mahindra. The refreshed SUV gets styling tweaks both, inside and out, which include a new front grille and bumper, alloy wheel design, roof rails, rear tailgate design and tail-lamps. The SUV also gets LED daytime running lamps as well as a sunroof. On the inside, Mahindra has added soft-touch materials on the dashboard and has introduced tan leather seats with quilted stitching, as well – thus adding to the XUV500’s upmarket feel.

• 155hp/360Nm, 2.2-litre diesel mated to a six-speed manual or automatic
